Some thoughts;
$1.3M back in the day.

This lady doesn't see the game to know what should go up, she gets Al Coates to tell her what's going on!

The Mickey mouse hands. IIRC, there were also human hands, a barefoot that stomped up dust, the graphics shown on the video, and some other ref ones that made fun of them. The wave, too, both with ocean waves and people waves. Yosemite Sam.

What a process for getting graphics. Draw on paper, then project, and created pixel by pixel. And it's animated, more pixel by pixel. 30h of work for 15 seconds animation. 1983 everyone!

The raising of a car on a hoist and then the word Loob comes on the screen. Not sure if that ever was on the scoreboard but that is absolute gold and deserves some award.
Holy hell! That woman was an absolute champ. Wow.

Seriously, I highly recommend people watch that video and Thank browna for it!

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
