I thought they really did a special job using the timeout breaks to honor Pearl Harbor veterans specifically. Its easy to be cynical about these corporate events, but they really did make it a priority that the veterans got respect.

Dude, you are correct concerning FOX. I was very pleased with their veterans spots and I hope everyone on this board saw them.

Was a fantastic event all around. Saw a good number of FOX Sports people at the hotel bar and such, and they were saying how FOX really put this whole event together.

Game was tough, but the weekend was fantastic and I happy I got to see the team play in such a fun environment.

Thanks against, FOX Sports

Did they say anything about how the BE relationship is working out? Just curious.

I am watching the pre-game and tha TiVo replay of the game now. That was one of the coolest events I have attended. And my team lost by a couple dozen, and I have been at plenty of big sporting events.

Btw, I heard from on FS1'er that the original plan was to do pearl harbor next year, for the 75th. But in order to do the 75th they needed to commit to this year as well. Really have not sea what that means beyond the words I justbtyoed.
