It's my middle-aged body that is the problem. If I stop walking, that's it, I'm done.

He's speaking in terms of feet years, not people years. Sorta like dog years.

The Dunk joins a program aimed at protecting ticket buyers.

Take a seat at the Dunk

Gilbane will be signing a $5 million contract build and install new seats that will be wider and have cup holders. Three hundred of the new seats will be installed by November with the remainder installed by next summer.

Glad to hear as it is long overdue.

There was cool demo going on this morning at the Dunk (as opposed to the sad demo across the street). They had a big machine smashing windows in the upper level. You can see new walls have been constructed at either end of the front to make the front facade one straight wall, bye bye Klingon Battle Cruiser.

so does that mean they're actually replacing the ugly brown windows? i was really hoping that would be part of it.

You can see what the new glass looks like on the new addition over the alley behind the Hilton. You can see from Atwells looking across the top of the Hilton garage.

PS: The Dunk looks great so far... I still have my fingers crossed that the sign facing the highway (and the event board) get an update as well...

I don't need to be sitting on 22s - as long as I got my Sam Adams with my hockey.

Again no photos (I'm soooo lazy on photo taking lately, but I have quite a few sitting on my computer that I need to get a time to sit down and post), but glass has gone up on the skybridge portion of the Dunk. It is interesting, the connection to the Convention Center is at a different level than the Dunk, so the bridge has a ramp in it. The glass is opaque to hide the ramp and ramps down itself, with little pieces of opaqueness floating around the rest of the glass. Interesting look.

I like the way they're doing that glass! It matches the Convention Center nicely.
