Anyone go last night? Started 1 hr 20 min late, but, WOW! 3 hr 15 min straight through. No break. Only about 2 minutes liberal bed wetting. Jungle-(Franking)-land included.

That doesn't mean much, Philo. You'd rather screw a hedgehog than pretty much do anything else. :grin:

any word on this...do the times line up correctly...it was a 1:15 game w/ a runtime of 2:35, so thats 3:50 or ~4pm...is that when the shit started? where was the concert (id assume riverport) so there had to be travel time, what time did the concert actually start?
just curious, that is bullshit if that is the reason for the late start

It was a 2:55 start with an hour plus rain delay. The game ended about 6:45. I heard the end on the radio while I was looking for a parking space. The concert was supposed to start at 7:30. It started at 8:50. About 2 hours after the final out. The manager always has post game press etc. Mark Klose reported on the radio he was at the concert and saw La Russa wisked into his spot about 8:45 and the concert started shortly after.
