5.114 lighting, concert, SWBB

Sunday 03/24/2024

Dan Nitzan came back right after lunch. We got the on-duty facilities guy to get us out a 10-foot ladder, much safer, and Dan tried repeatedly to get the two light-heads back in their track. We finally gave up and later I ordered two somewhat different ones from Amazon.

At 4:30 we had a concert by a brass quintet. They were pretty good. Then it was off to Maples Pavilion, to watch a game from my seat in section 11, row DD for the last time. Next season, if I go to any of the not-PAC-12 Cardinal, I’ll buy a ticket at the door. The game was a near-upset by the 12th-seeded Iowa State Cyclones, who had come from behind to win on Friday and came out fierce and physical. The Cardinal trailed through most of the middle of the game, and it went to overtime, where Stanford squeaked out a lead with less than a minute left and hung on to win. The concensus of the car-pool going home was that they will lose their next game, which will be in the Portland regional against, probably, NC State.
