I love hating the Griz to victory but . . .

That's a good idea.I have a Griz cooling towel that was given out a few years ago somewhere near the footbridge. They had them in a cooler of ice water and were handing them out to folks. I took mine home and bring it with me to hot games now. Worked pretty well on Saturday. But the original forecast for that game changed quite a bit. It wasn't originally supposed to be quite that hot.

I think that while the weather was a hot one on Saturday, the stadium is that much hotter on gamedays. You have the turf that soaks up all that heat and it just radiates out. 26k bodies collecting and putting out heat, concrete and metal soaking up the heat, plus the bright sun... recipe for everything to feel hotter than it might actually feel outside the stadium.

Yeah exactly. Plus my family's seats are in the NW corner so full sun all game. Even the previous Saturday when the temperature only reached around 74°, we were still all burning up. But those seats in the sun are great for the later games when it's cold. Not that I ever come up for those games mind you.

Just a side note, if they can't forecast the weather 2 days from now....
