It was almost like the Donner party. 

What do mean “almost”?

Does anyone know how the food truck fundraising is going?  I was hoping they would reach their goal by finals.

That goal will likely not be really known until they can get a quote on a purchase and what it will take to build it out and stock it. I donated during the Rivalry.

Yeah.  The organization was kinda busy on the tour and finishing the season recently.  I imagine getting a quote is priority 1 in prepping for next year.

I've got a huge retention bonus coming in a month and I'm going to convince me wife that we can send a little bit of that to Casper.  I had her sit down yesterday and watch the show and even with her limited historical knowledge of DCI, she knew what those last 5 minutes meant and that it was the most emotional thing DCI has ever witnessed.

No update on the Troopers website.  

 

It’s surprising that the Troopers haven’t posted any updates about their food truck, especially after calling it a catastrophic loss.

That is odd. Maybe they can use Mandarins’ food truck this season if they need to keep fundraising.
