RTT...20-20 hindsight.

Wonder if this one has a shot at Top 5?

Top Snowfalls for Twin Cities
1. 28.4 inches: 1991 October 31 - November 3 (Halloween Blizzard)
2. 21.1 inches: 1985 November 29 - December 1 (Thanksgiving Weekend)
3. 20.0 inches: 1982 January 22 - 23
4. 17.4 inches: 1982 January 20 - 21
5. 17.1 inches: 2010 December 10 - 11 (Final "Domebuster")
 
I guess I thought it was the appropriate place to put metrics, but i guess many have a narrower view of things. After all, it is all related. I am getting swatted a lot lately for straying off of narrow topics.
No you were perfectly fine posting that stuff in that thread. My comment was just meant about me not caring enough to read through multiple pages of people each guessing where we will be seeded. There isn't a darn thing we can do about it, so I just don't worry about it till the seeding come out Sunday, but once I opened the thread I read all the way through it and my mind went sort of numb. LOL.

Big fizzle considering the possible snow levels forecast. Stupid windy though which has been what's pausing me from going out and clearing the runway for Das Audi. Going to need to don the a ski mask.
 
@fcclone got us good at our first game this past week. We heard someone call our names and turned around, saw it was his son and while we were chatting with him, fcc snuck up behind us and said "LEW - TAKE YOUR PILLS!".

Apparently the most recent CF thing he had read was my post about Lew & I a few pages back. :D

Saw who could have been Lew's younger brother at P&L Friday during the game. Full gray beard, bucket hat similar to Lew's, but Iowa State flavored.

Hopefully, it wasn’t a green bucket hat. That dude was getting a lap dance a seat below my daughter and wife, and he kept leaning back into them. It was kind of an interesting site.

His locks have been shorn, and he has a weed hat that is multi colored including red & yellow, but we never made it to the P&L this week.

Also, we were together pretty much 24/7, so unless I was doing the lap dance, it wasn't him. :D
 
I remember when Colorado WBB's had a player name Britney Spears, but I think that was during the 00's. That would mean the player was born & named before pop star Britney Spears was popular.

We have about 7 inches. I cleared the driveway a couple of hours ago. Luckily the residual snowfall and blowing snow isn't sticking so the driveway and sidewalk are still pretty clean.

I had a total blast at my first Big 12 tournament. What a terrific place. Drinking for 13 straight hours didn't seem out of place at all. We were at Kelly's, Johnny's, The Belfry, Zoo Bar and the Green Lady (I guess the game too). All great venues in their own unique way. I'm always amazed how neighbor friends, college friends and high school friends can all get along so well and laugh so much (only partially at my expense). I guess one thing everybody can enjoy are stories of growing up in Fort Dodge. I would have loved to stay another night but the weather gods strongly suggested that we leave on Saturday.
