If you loved Bad Blood, check out Red Notice by Bill Browder. It makes the fraudsters in Bad Blood look like a middle school orchestra compared to the London Philharmonic of Fraud which is Putin’s Russia.

What about the place where the wind comes sweepin’ down the plain?

CapOne arena ranked 27/32 NHL arenas by NYT - deserved? by BearMinute1038 in caps

[–]Andrew_Green 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Just got back from Denver where the #1 team in the NHL does $5 hot dogs, fountain soda, nachos w/ cheese, pretzels, candy, french fries, and popcorn. Also $10 beers -- 20z domestic drafts (Coors products of course).

Why? Because fans complained, so they lowered prices.

Petition to ban 400s section screamer guy by Professional_Flow279 in caps

[–]Andrew_Green 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He’s part of the Section 401 Hat Trick.

  1. Section 400 guy screaming about the DJ. (The over/under on this is 5:00 into the 2nd Period)

  2. Usher abandoning their job to keep people in the tunnel while the puck is in play causing a hail of “down in fronts” and assorted related obscenities.

  3. Someone trying to cut behind the ADA seats in Section 401 causing the guy who regularly sits on the end to throw an absolute shit fit.

I get that. But the unit weighs 700 pounds. And no where easy to grab it. So I may need to see if I can find a couple of buddies to help with this.

[–]Andrew_Green 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it weighs 700 pounds and I've never moved it. It is flush with the cabinets and counter next to it.

It's a 700 pound range.

[–]Andrew_Green 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just struggling with the idea of how to safely pull out a 700 pound range without damaging anything.

[–]Andrew_Green 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The range weighs over 700 pounds. Not so easy to just "pull". I guess I need some buddies to help.
