Not quite the funk of forty thousand years on the floors, but close. Outside the bowl, metal support structures still have peeling paint and cobwebs.

I looked up the UAA policy on cameras, and the detachable lens requirement only applies to lenses over 6 inches in length. I wish that I had know the 6 inch requirement. I would have offered the officer a visual aid.

Pork also good, but that's a lot easier to make. The celing still has the murals from our 1984 season. The scores and opponents are depicted well. Look for the tie game against LSU.
