- 4. BGP is still the *best*!...

- On our way in on Sunday night, right outside the door, a man came up
- to us and gave us a 'pat on the back' ticket that we could, if we wanted
- to, give to any one of the staff inside the stadium. Apparently, staff
- members can redeem these coupons for prizes, I'd guess things like
- days off, vacations, etc. For our trouble, they gave us a second coupon
- for a free soft drink!

- Has this happened to anyone else, at the Coliseum or anywhere else?
- I've probably seen the dead in at least 20 venues, but have never heard
- of such a thing. I was _very_ impressed, as I have been by the general
- behavior of the staff at the Coliseum. Maybe it's because I'm a
- transplanted east-coaster and am used to the Cap Center, etc... :-)

- Happy Holidays to everyone, and please stay safe!!
