Dark Energy Posted April 19 Posted April 19 I’m going to vent. Parking situation was freaking piss poor. Long long lines of cars barely moving. 45 minutes of slow car moving to get into a parking lot. In venue, can not see scores on two mats. Sitting in a ‘corner’ of the arena. Can see scores for nearest two mats but far mats have boars arrayed so as not to be able to see them. At KC for NCAAs, digital banner around arena showed who was wrestling on which mat … and the score. Digital banner here just tells us we are at the trials.
Dogbone Posted April 19 Posted April 19 Surprised. The arena looks about half full on TV. Maybe they are still trickling in.
Dark Energy Posted April 19 Author Posted April 19 It is about half full. Crazy. Maybe session 2 in evening will be more full.
D3 for LU Posted April 19 Posted April 19 Hmmm... how shall we look at this? An arena half empty... or half full? D3 Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

I was so mad about them not having scores and mat assignments on the big screen. At least they got that fixed now.
Dark Energy Posted April 19 Author Posted April 19 Better than not having info on the semi big screen. But their use of the space on the screen stinks. Too much white / dead space. Could have increased fonts by a lot using a better layout. I’m kinda nit picking and whining. I know.

Dark Energy Posted April 20 Author Posted April 20 Final session. Can’t see score boards … angled so that I see from side .. their edges. Big screen showing match —- started with scores on bottom but now on bottom of match is a banner saying US Olympic Trials. Ummm, we all know what this is. SHOW THE FREAKING SCORE UP THERE!!! Fundamentally PISS POOR thinking on the setup here.
Dark Energy Posted April 20 Author Posted April 20 Ok. Now showing score in small font, top left. Like on TV. Was super big at bottom to start. Small improvement I guess.

Like 83% of the finalists are nlwc. How can they not sell out their own arena? finals now even have a lot of empty seats.
