Adding 45,000 to the daily grind will be all kinds of fun! Do they still sell the 5/$1 pretzels outside? Probably not with covid regardless of price.

I didn't see the pretzel grocery carts for a few years until last season...regrettably, I did not check the 2023 pricing. When I was a kid I would beg whomever I was with for one of those cold, soggy delectable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked a "vendor" (loosely stated) how that worked and when they were 5/$1 they paid $.75 for them so they made $.25 per sale, and they were allowed to return a certain amount if they did not sell. Those puppies are good with yellow mustard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itstrainingtime Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 For those playing - how is everyone doing with their brackets today? So far, so good for me. I have Duquesne making the Sweet 16 so happy to pull that one off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Festus Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Chester County down this way has an SPS for heightened fire danger concurrent with a Flood Watch. A rather rare combo platter. My grid forecast adds up to 1.25 - 2.5" qpf. Hmmm, at 10:1 ... (if only ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This matches my prediction of a cat 5 running up the gut and land falling at Havre de Grace. Sent from my motorola edge 5G UW (2021) using Tapatalk Did anybody else besides me watch this? It is pretty interesting and I wondered what people thought. It was full of surprises. One came close to home as landfall was predicted about where I lived for years in downtown Jersey City about ten blocks from the Hudson River. Another point of interest to me was evacuating NYC area. How could it be done in a matter of days? I thought about that during Katrina as the struggles of people in New Orleans were on TV and later when Superstorm Sandy paid us a visit. There are so many more residential towers and less undeveloped land to absorb water than there once was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best plan is bring every available huge ship into port ASAP and overcrowd them. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard of 93 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 This is the first time in probably 30 years that I haven’t done a bracket. Getting caught up with work after vacation, I didn’t get the chance to enter the pool that I normally get in. It’s kind of nice for a change to not be rooting for a certain result. My St. Joe’s Hawks got knocked out the the NIT last night, so now I can just enjoy casually watching the tournaments. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's interesting watching games in different arenas and seeing the difference in the tightness of the rims. TD Garden in Boston seems to have some very forgiving rims. One of the Western Conference arenas has super tight rims...it's either through or coming back off quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
