West Lafayette, IN

March 3rd – 4th

Northwestern vs Purdue – Big Ten Network – 6:30p et


Oh goodie! Another drive on I-70 West! Just as boring it was on Friday & Saturday!

I was supposed to work a Blue Jackets game on Tuesday and then drive to West Lafayette after the game. However, I woke up on Monday with a really bad cold. Thankfully, my wonderful client (Dave) replaced me on the crew so I was able to start my drive at a more reasonable hour.

That is one of the crappy parts of my job - no sick days or vacation days. If you are sick, you just go to work anyway. Of course from time to time, there are situations where you can be replaced at the last minute - but those are few and far between.


Got to West Lafayette in the early evening, took lots of cold meds and slept!

On Wednesday morning I felt a lot better and was SO glad I had not worked the Jackets game the night before as it would of gotten me into West Lafayette around 2am.

I was halfway thru my shower when something out of the corner of my eye caught my attention…. What is THAT?


The photo doesn’t even show half of it.
I can forgive a hotel for a random hair here or there – but there was half a monkey on the wall of my shower! How does that get overlooked?

Had a good game and got to work with an old friend I hadn’t seen in a few years. So that was nice.

After the game, I made the 4 hour trek back home. That part sucked.
