Well, dismayed to see this in our section. Empty seats will will up. Too much black clothing here. B9275078-5EF8-408B-BFA7-77846081F310.jpeg

Otherwise, pretty decent crowd in lower “bowl.” (Hilton true, @BoxsterCy)

Working on yet another Disaster Recovery test that is a complete cluster. 12 hours in and no system yet. Every single tech person that heard about this plan said it was a bad idea.
This is for an old client that we are obligated to do this test for some reason. The last test was in June of 2019 and they tried to bring this up on that same configuration because "nothing much has changed" None of us have seen this system since about June 2020.

Nothing changed in 18 months, right.

Going to need a Hilton attendance report from @Ms3r4ISU and @NWICY, like how much space is filled in the balcony. Was at the "Doyle Game" with NWICY and attendance was good from students and lower level but seem to recall balcony was almost empty which I was a little surprised at versus Iowa. Hope we have 8000-9000 real cheeks in the seats tonight. On paper this should be a great matchup.

Lower Bowl was full, the center sections of the balcony were full about a 1/3-1/2 way up. I'm guessing 8-9000? Nice crowd a fair amount of hawk fans but not too bad, they never got loud. It was a good atmosphere, not near the animosity I'm expecting tomorrow night.

Not exactly sure.

Daughter said some older dude ripped off his shirt and was running laps on the court afterwards swinging his shirt over his head. Said it looked like someone she had seen me talk to at football games……

I'm eligible to donate blood again today. Made an appointment for next Wednesday. After that I'll schedule the Covid booster.
Gotta wait 8 weeks. I got a vac for something and didn’t remember until I filled out the questions there. Was mad that I forgot and spent an hour of my time.

You have to wait to get vaxxed after giving blood?

You can’t have any Vax shots within 8 weeks of donating. Unless the Covid one is different, that is what their questions ask, I got hit on a measles one or something so I make sure I have 8 weeks between anything.

Which seats are you using? It's a kind of late night for your folks, so I'm guessing you'll be down below?

Nope my Sherpa seats. If the pair next to my folks stay open I might move down and fill them at half. I hope some of the people that used to be next to me show up I haven't seen them all season and keep looking for them, they may have upgraded and changed sections or their kids are getting bigger so they may have dropped out for elementary school events. There is no way my folks will miss this one. We will all ride share together, I'll drop them off at the W doors then go park. See you there!
