Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Most people are very nice and kind but the trouble is with the headline obsessed media in this country we only hear about the bad things that happens and anything good tends to be relegated to the bottom of their lists.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

My happy thought - my son is having a wonderful time, with experiences that will (hopefully) last him a lifetime, on his Uni Exchange year in South Carolina.

He attended his first College (American) Football match yesterday, USC vs Navy, and there were nearly 79,000 people in the stadium - this is for a College football match.

He said the atmosphere was amazing, and no crowd trouble whatsoever.

That is what happens at a rugby match as there is no trouble?

Stand back now and wait for the backlash for what I have just said

Yes my friend has just come back from America after going there with his son and they took in a American football match in San Francisco while there and they said that the atmosphere was wonderful and that the fans mingle with each other without any sign of trouble.

I think I was more amazed at 80k crowd at a college match - can't see that happening at a Loughborough vs Essex varsity rugby game.

btw, Columbia (where USC is) has a population of 130k.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Last night I went to the BBC studios in London and saw an episode (5) of Argumental being filmed for Dave.

Sean Lock is the new host and the captains are Robert Webb (Blue) & Seann Walsh (Red), the guests were Tim Vine (Blue) & Stephen Mangan (Red).

Tim Vin was very funny and the only reason I voted 'Blue' regardless what was being discussed

I might be seen when it airs as I was in the second row and had a HD camera facing me.

The University of Michigan stadium capacity is 109k.


PS If you think thats good, there are some highschool stadiums in Texas with over 16k capacity.
