Never Saw That Coming...Basketball

As the antithesis to another thread:
Name three Cyclone basketball greats to come out of nowhere and do way more than you ever expected at some point in their careers. To get it started I will go with
1. Senior year LaFester Rhodes... Don't tell me you saw that coming.
2. Jeff Hornacek... Walk-on to Big Eight and NBA Great
3. Tyrese Haliburton... Too Skinny and should redshirt to Cyclone assist record and his NBA Payday

Interested to see what everyone else thinks, and to remember and recognize some of our best.

Circa/Stadium Swim Trip Advice

After hearing about Circa and its Stadium Swim pool many times here on the multiple CF podcasts, I felt it was about time my wife and I gave it a shot for our annual fall 3-day weekend getaway during the college football season. Our dates our Sept 29th - Oct 2nd, which is the weekend of the Oklahoma away game. We typically go during an ISU away game weekend approximately around those dates for the prime college football and weather combo. We've always stayed in the past at pretty decent hotels on the main strip due to their niceness, pool quality and location, but are willing to give Circa a try due to how new and unique it is, even though we aren't necessarily the biggest fans of the old Vegas strip. Since the old strip can get a bit dicey and scurvy for our liking, we'll likely stick within Circa for most everything outside of taking an Uber to the main strip for a show or dinner one night. Its worth noting that our favorite part about Vegas is lounging by the pools pretty much all day and making our sports bets, hence why Circa is appealing. Due to the time change, we are usually up early and at pool around pool opening so that we can usually get some of their free chairs and so that we have spots for the 11 am CT round of games. Anyway, didn't know if anyone had any good advice for us both for Stadium Swim or Circa in general? Also, anyone know what they allow you to bring into the pool? Can you bring any outside drink or even a water bottle? It is surprisingly hard to find any info on their website for this. Would love to hear from someone with first-hand experience. Thanks ahead of time for anyone's help.

Friday OT #2 - Islands In the Stream

Fifteen years ago, all of my music lived in iTunes so I could sync it to my various iPods. I had Spotify early, but didn’t use it consistently. Ten years ago, I used a lot of Pandora until I got sick quickly of the algorithm. Now we are a Spotify Family household. There are other, more robust options, but it just integrates with everything from our home sound o the cars, etc - it is ubiquitous.

How do you listen to your music? YouTube, downloads, etc?
