A Catholic priest, an Indian doctor, a rich Chinese businessman and an Italian from New Jersey--

It's a classic already!

I thought 1+1 was 10.

No! 1+1=11

Perhaps, but only if you repeatedly fail to use birth control.

a = x [true for some a's and x's]
a+a = a+x [add a to both sides]
2a = a+x [a+a = 2a]
2a-2x = a+x-2x [subtract 2x from both sides]
2(a-x) = a+x-2x [2a-2x = 2(a-x)]
2(a-x) = a-x [x-2x = -x]
2 = 1

You did get to see the greatest comeback in Iowa Football history, one of the few highlights of the season! Have you been to Kinnick before? How'd you like it?

No, I've been there before. My buddy has lived there for a number of years now. It's a stadium, nothing special. The corridors under the stands are too narrow and the concession stands are far too few and thus too slow. The good part of the Iowa football experience is what's happening outside the stadium before the game and the fans get excited in the game, which makes for a fun atmosphere.

No! 1+1=11

You by chance missed the binary joke there?

That, I believe would be actual math.

Yay! So, I look at this photoblog site, The Chive, pretty much daily. It's entertaning and funny. Well, they were asking for "pics depicting good times at your college/etc." Got a photo posted today, from a Final Five a few years ago, with the MN tailgaters playing Beerdarts.

Are you seeking an advertising fee from Worthless for featuring his mats?

Looks like the old lot as well...

Nope. Would love the game to spread, though. The Cornell folks were hooked last spring at the F4, and I know a certain RPI fan that was amazed at the game.

MNS: Yep, old lot.

Evening, Lodge. Bad coffee is made much better by lots of Bailey's and Kahlua. Don't want to waste the good stuff (Black Bush) on it, but this will do nicely.

Just buy some Evan or Powers. Cheaper, and tastier.

Nothing special? Been to any other stadiums? I mean I know you're a Gopher fan and hate Iowa, but it's one of the best gameday cities in all of College Football. It's no Alabama or OSU, etc, but it's definitely top 25.

Nothing, the acceptable correct answers are 4, 10, 11, 12.73239545, and 14.715177646858.

I'll risk asking. I understand how 4, 10, and 11 could be the correct answer. 12.73239545 is approximately 40/pi, but I don't see how that is connected to 2+2. OTOH, 14.715177646858 doesn't seem to be related to anything.

I'm not really a college football fan at all and don't really hate U of IA. I just have fun with it because my buddy gets so passionate about all things Hawkeye.

You were asking about the stadium, not the whole city experience on gameday. The stadium itself isn't anything special. Before the game, like I said, is where the fun is for the couple games I've attended.
