i think your #1 hits the nail right on the head.  sprinkle in a little
expectation of $90, lower bowl and $75, upper bowl, and you have an
irate tony buffa (and apparently lots of others).
 
however, i like chuck cliff's attitude.  he seems to enjoy being there

i'm happy just so long as i don't have to listen to michigan tech's
band during a power play.
 
(fingers crossed for good seats)
 
see you all in anaheim...
