A boondoggle of epic proportions: I did audio for a post game analysis of the Monday Night Football Seahawks beat down of the of the New Orleans Saints on Dec. 2nd 2013. We arrived at 2:30 PM and did not actually work until the end of the 4th quarter- about 9:00PM. My awesome all access pass, (which bore the pseudonym "Warren Pope" for unknown and unnecessary reasons) gave me entree to the strange, semi-forbidden world of pro football, that can only be likened to royal courts of the middle ages. Being both a fan and a fairly nihilistic armchair anarchist it was a dizzying experience of being on the field and hearing the sounds and smelling the smells of the real thing and seeing the 1%'s calloused view of the unwashed madness of professional sports. I saw almost every other sound guy in Seattle, and worked with the incredible and decent Mr. Hudson (pictured above)
