Stadium Cleanup
Stadium clean-up is on the Sunday morning after the football games. I've done it before and I think we had to report to the stadium around 7am and were done at 11ish? I kind of forget, but that at least gives you an idea.
Any word on if we'll be able to do the ticket scanning job again? That was pretty sweet... since it doesn't involve soggy nachos.
