Shotgun 1 #1 January 30, 2004 Ok, so no one will tell me WHAT is going on, other than that SOMETHING is going on... so I have been instructed to watch the Super Bowl Pregame Show because apparently it is something I will want to see (even though I'm not a football fan), and it might be something that you guys will want to see too. (I'm assuming it's something involving parachutes???) So I'll be watching it on Sunday, probably up at the Bombshelter... and if I can figure out how to use my VCR, I may even record it. (I don't know if I was supposed to say anything, but since I don't really know anything to tell I guess it's ok??? ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mnischalke 0 #2 January 30, 2004 Hmmm, I thought it was the halftime show, like before some band plays or something? Can't be parachutes tho, isnt this an indoor stadium? mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.

Anyone have the specs on the areana - like how high the dome is from the field? Could it be a base jump into the stadium?I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #11 January 30, 2004 So what they're saying is Sunday, sundown, we close up shop and haul ass to the DZO's house so we can watch it on his 65" HD WideScreen TV...atleast that's what I'm catching from all of this.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Shotgun 1 #12 January 30, 2004 I haven't found the stats yet, but judging from this photo I could imagine some interesting activities taking place. And judging from the person who told me about it, I'm guessing Tom is right that it might not be a skydive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #13 January 30, 2004 You know, if you get sorta near the opening and hook the piss out of it, you might be able to swoop and stop before you slam into the cheerleaders...--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Shotgun 1 #16 January 30, 2004 QuotePregame it is. That's good. If I had to sit in the Bombshelter to watch half the Super Bowl, I'd be passed out on the floor WAY before the halftime show started! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mnischalke 0 #18 January 30, 2004 Oh, I just meant that's when the bands are playing. Ya know, like Aerosmith. Aerosmith has a cool song. It's called Jamie's got a gun. Guns are a big topic around here lately. I like guns. You're name is Shotgun. Cool. Anyway, they're the finale before the game begins. Maybe this is gonna be a Steven Tyler tandem or something... mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.

Will you demonstrate the way of the RedBull/Vodka for me? I don't think I'm allowed to drink whiskey anymore because it makes me crazy. Oh, and this site has some better pics: http://glasssteelandstone.com/US/TX/HoustonReliantStadium.html It says the height is 265 ft., so I guess that must be about right.
