Crum center update

Postby George S. Patton » Wed Nov 28, 2007 9:16 am

Last I saw, it was about 90 percent done on the outside, save for the work around the entrance. Looked like there was still cement floors on the inside, but I didn't have the best look.

Anyone know if we are still on target for January and how things are looking on the inside? I would gather the Bob Prewitt court has been installed?

Thanks in advance.

It must be pretty close - the latest pictures on smumustangs.com are old but make the inside look pretty complete.

I do know that I, in fact, won the "guess how many bricks" contest from Doh's blog, but didn't get credit for it!

I guessed 96,000 bricks, which is closer than the man who was proclaimed winner. I think I deserve a season ticket upgrade and free concessions for life.

I could see the season ticket upgrade, but I don't think we can afford free concessions for life.
Just send 'da money.

From the Doh blog:

Our trivia question was: How many bricks will it take to build the Crum Basketball Center? We had several contestants enter for a chance at an Adidas Sports Watch. The winner is Derek Taylor with the guess of 215,000 bricks. The total number of bricks that will be used for the Crum Basketball Center will be 148,481. Derek came closest the actual number.

You are welcome. I thought that was some type of universal rule. Or something.

Perhaps the rule was "without being under" and I didn't notice.

Either way, "big money, no whammies, STOP!"
