the most amusing part of the evening was a time-out event in which a student has to drive the length of the floor and score a layup within 5 seconds, for a $100 prize (should be named the Jeanette Pohlen Challenge). He shot right at the end, but the judges ruled he didn't make it in time. After lusty crowd booing, a few timeouts later it was announced that the decision had been reversed and he was awarded the $100. The crowd was pleased.

I think that booing was the loudest the crowd got all night.  Woodside High band was pretty good - about as good as the full LSJUMB (football band).  Both Theo and the PA announcer need to adjust their volume to the crowd size.  Yelling as loud as you can when the Sixth Man and lower bowl are half full is not going to inspire much.

OMG do we need guards.
