Timbers Fans: Are you a Sitter or a Stander?This made me curious because I've never heard of anything like this before. The Timbers front office wants to make sure everyone has a good time so last year, they documented what kind of fans were in each section. Did the majority of them stand or sit? Did they wave flags and cheer or take in the action in a more quiet manner? Season ticket holders were also polled in the off season, asking them what they prefer. For example, the majority of season ticket holders in section 117 preferred to sit, so that section became a sitting section. Team employees tell me if you're buying season tickets, you will be made aware of what kind of section you're buying. You can also ask at the box office if you're buying single game tickets. Employees also say if you are uncomfortable in your section, say if you're more of a stander and you're in a sitting section, they will try to move you if there are open seats available. What do you think of this? It's the first time I'd ever heard anything like it. The Seattle Sounders do something similar but I can't find examples of any other team, or any other league, designating sections like this. What do you prefer to do at games, sit or stand? Were you ever asked to sit down at a Timbers game? How did you react? Let me know what you think! ---Lacey |
Mega Millions up for Grabs!So, are you buying? We here at the KXL studios have a pool, but a few people refuse to participate, saying it's a waste of money. I bet they will change their tune when I'm noticeably absent from work Monday. :-) Good luck! -Lacey

Hungry for The Hunger GamesUp until about a month ago, I had never heard of The Hunger
Games. It’s a trilogy of books about
young people who fight to the death to feed their families. That’s a real basic
description but you get the idea. There's a strong female lead with some romance in there as well. This sci
fi book is being made into a movie that hits theaters this weekend and young
people are going crazy. As of Wednesday, pre-sale tickets topped the
$15 Million mark. Two thousand shows had
already sold out. I talked to some kids
at Grant High and they couldn’t wait to line up for the midnight showing all
dressed in the characters they love.
Some of the male students summed up the movie craze as “stupid,” but
most of the students were excited. When
I asked how it compared to the Twilight series, most said this was “more serious”
and impactful.

Runners Are CrazyI used to think those people who crammed onto a street in downtown Portland or any other city to participate in a run were crazy. I wondered what motivated them. It seemed silly. ...until I tried it myself. There's something to be said about the commoradarie of people who get together to do something healthy. It's actually fun to get moving early. It's great to hear people cheer as you start the race. When you feel like you can't push through, the people around you inspire you with their energy. I saw one person fall during the Shamrock Run and so many people stopped to help her out, it was inspiring. At the last leg, when your legs feel heavy and you just want to walk it, people line up to cheer you on and tell you you're almost there. You feel kind of like a rock star. After you're done, you feel you've accomplished so much and it's usually only about 10am. Usually, you want to hang out and enjoy a beer or some chowder (yes..I said it was only 10am) because the people are all in a good mood. It's hard to find someone who's crabby after a good workout. Then, the rest of the day is yours. To all you crazy runners out there, here's to a great running season. ~Rebecca |
