Impossible: Tear down a building in 1915. Rebuilding one wall in 1924. Yup, they did that. http://blog.wiesemanns.com/?p=343 Tuesday morning was brutal. I awoke with a small hangover, and a massive back ache. I think the combination of the stupid rollercoaster and the walking 20 miles, and the air mattress combined into the best back muscle torture imaginable. I spent some time in Brett's lounge chair hoping my back ... http://blog.wiesemanns.com/?p=341 Monday morning I woke to silence. Brett was gone, and I had to figure out something to do.

I got to go to Autzen's press boxes (and Phil's box) as part of the new basketball arena ticketing process.
