Default Anybody else going to the draft??

I'm taking the train into NYC tomorrow to see the draft with my boys and some friends. We suffered thru all of day two last year with maybe 300 others (what the NFL calls day 2 diehards) for the privilege of skipping the lines and getting reserved seats for this years draft in the first mezzanine. The orchestra is reserved for team tables ESPN/NFLN and corporate bigwigs. My avatar is from several years ago way back in the last row of the 3rd mezzanine.
I'm debating whether to wear a Rodney shirt (aggravate them), Brady (make them jealous) or Tedy or Troy Brown (noncontroversial)....
I'll try to post as I did the last few years....

Don't envy him too much....it's the most boring afternoon I've spent in my life. Literally. I actually bailed around pick 30 (This was the Robert Edwards draft) and hit the Irish pub on the corner instead.

With the time limit shortened & it only being 2 rounds on day one now I think it would be fun.

It's the sideshow that is entertaining from the three guys who show up annually in full Cowboys uniform that seems to get smaller each year ( or they are getting bigger) to the other bizarros. One year while waiting on line for a ticket a very large (350+ lbs)woman in a lime green outfit flashed the crowd......It was enough to send people into therapy...
The other interesting part is watching the talking heads when the red line goes off and they aren't on the air. This year I WILL record it and post it if there is a repeat of a meltdown that occurred last year by one 'expert' who wasn't happy with the stats/info that they received.......

This is definitly the year to go during the first day. 2 rounds and only 10 minutes a piece.

And tell the Raiders wack-jobs that Halloween isn't until another six months.
