Your eyes do not deceive you, rolls happened and nobody froze to death that I'm aware of even though it was only 27.

We'll have a news summary up after tomorrow rolls, but in the meantime, check out the pictures

It's spring break man, these days that means they don't roll. Don't worry, we'll be back on the job next week. I tried to give fair warning so that you wouldn't get too stressed out waiting for the rolls reports http://cmubuggy.org/News/?p=247

I think that in the 00-04 era we always rolled one weekend or the other.

We usually rolled over spring break. I think we rolled at least one weekend of spring break '96, '97, and '98. I don't remember '95 because I was in CIA at the time and they had gone inactive after the fall.

One of the weekends in '97 (I think), Fringe didn't roll one of the days, but I was in town so I went out to watch and ended up flagging the Scaife parking lot. It was a remarkable day if only because I got to see Teal Whistler roll to a dead stop at the gazebo. I'm pretty sure the hill 3 pusher was in the follow car.

Teal Whistler, the most over-hyped and under performing buggy ever. Tilting wheels!!
