Philly is a deflated air mattress in the middle of Times Square actively being peed on by Fireman Ed.

The Knicks are the same thing but with two guys who have strong accents telling you that it's injuries and also that Melo is a bum

It's actually inhabited but there are no carpets, windows, or lights and everything is exposed concrete but the property manager swears to you that it would be totally awesome in 2-3 years once the construction is done and things start coming together.

Vivek already suggested using real time inventory numbers to know when to slash the cost of hot dogs in the third quarter for customers who have a history of purchasing hot dogs and communicating the special to them via the Kings app

And the Kings have paired with Uber. I've got a $20 credit sitting around somewhere

If a pro sports team ever got bought by a guy who couldn't drink alcohol for religious reasons do you think their league would allow them to consider stopping the sale of alcohol?

The hot dog idea isn't half bad in theory, but in practice there is no way I'm wasting my bitcoins (which I expect by 2020 to be the only accepted currency at King's games) on 3 quarters of Ty Corbin coaching 4 on 5 basketball for a 50% discount on 8btc hot dogs.

Blue laws affect wholesale, not service. In Indiana the bars are open but the liquor stores aren't. Also I hate it.

Noah loving owns:

quote:

Noah lost to rookie Cameron Bairstow in Tuesday’s final of the annual bowling tournament for a sponsors party. “I was really pissed off, man,” Noah said. “Because I’ve been wanting to win this bowling event for eight years now. I’ve come close. Taj was out; he’s the heavy favorite. And Bairstow actually rolled a 70 and was throwing it with two hands. So I was like, ‘There’s no way I’m going to lose to this Aussie.’ And he beat me and I was devastated.”

I know nothing about the Charlotte area. Is there anything the typical tourist would find worth doing there, outside of the All-Star game?

E: also, is it a blue law city? All-Star games should never be hosted in a city with those kind of liquor laws
