Gotta love minor league basketball.

Saw the Idaho Stampede tonight. At an early stoppage of play, they had a pepsi max chugging contest. This was a bad idea, and the result was predictable. One of the kids just kind of stopped, and was grabbing his stomach. He puked a little into a towel, and then let loose when they got a bucket out to him. The other kid won by default.

At halftime, there was a 5 foot tall acrobat/tightrope guy - he had a portable tight rope thing where he was only maybe 10-15 feet off the ground, but there was no net or other precautions. He's jumping around on the wire, riding a unicycle, jumping rope, and then - the big finale - a backflip on the tightrope. He missed, crotched himself on the wire, and then just kind of crumpled to the floor. Fortunately, I think he knows how to fall safely, and after a few seconds in a fetal position, he was back up there to try again, and he nailed it.

Antoine Walker was out there for the Stampede, and he looked SLOW.
