I would not have been wanting to be drinking directly underneath the canon when it went off multiple times Thursday night. I probably would've swallowed my cup. Whatever malfunctions there were at the beginning of the season there is no longer a problem with that canon.
The fellows running the scoreboard seem to have made some big improvements. At the beginning of the season they were constantly taking crowd shots of interesting fans, usually at the expense of seeing a replay. There was hardly any of that Thursday night. We had replays galore and in my opinion that was 10 times better than crowd shots. If you want to shoot human expression, please concentrate on the players and not the fans. That's what's interesting, the individual player expressions, not the fans' faces. The scoreboard crew must've gotten some feedback and responded to it. So well done.
I very much enjoyed the band that played during halftime .... it was so much better than the variety of dog and pony shows we've seen so often over the last half-century. That band put me in "the mood" and nothing could have been better. Quite frankly I would like to see a lot of local bands engaged at the stadium. Perhaps they could play a mini concert for 45 minutes to an hour prior to kickoff. As far as I'm concerned they could even do it during the player warm-ups. Maybe that would put everybody, players included, in the mood for some great and exciting football.
Let me complement Miller & Co. where the ongoing improvements he has been overseeing to make the game day experience that much better is coming to pay off.
This is the best entertainment we've had in a long, long time, and Yup, it has an awful lot to do with winning in a decisive way. Yup, Yup, Yup.
