Several entrepreneurial souls were walking through the parking lots selling handwarmers at 1000% markups - and selling out.

Upon entry into the stadium, EMTs had an individual bundled on a stretcher. I assume they had waaay too much to drink and started to experience hyothermia.

Later in the game, I bought a beer and by the time I got back to my seat, the top 1/2" was frozen over. It was pretty damned cold.
