Well, brass monkeys would have felt at home. Dressing for the cold is quite the art, with modern clothing and technology. It presents challenges to touch and hearing. Unlike the Ice Bowl, where nobody knew the cold was coming, we had a week to prepare for it. The only thing the forecasters got wrong, was the wind. It was supposed to calmm down, it didn't. Everybody was prepared, and out of over 72,000 people; only 15 people needed any medical assistance. Ah we had adult beverages when needed. Uncle Jack and his friend Uncle Jim were there in many a hip flask. I am going to try the poi idea at Miller Park this summer. With the new accureacy, I am wondering if seating sections, and beer stands can be marked. I also wonder what the multiple levels of a stadium will do to sattellite reception. Can we mark the brattworst stand from the chicken stand? Miller Lite from Ginnis? Who knows, men's from women's bathrooms?
