    Fan Village is a lot of fun.  There’s sponsor tents for set up by the various UFC sponsors such as Toyo Tires, Harley Davidson, Monster Energy Drink, etc, so there is some free stuff given away. But that’s mainly kept to koozis and then contents for grand prizes. But the great thing about Fan Village…

    I was never a big fan of watching the weigh-ins on TV as it seemed like a lot of commercials and studio commentators and not much live. I had hoped it would be better to see the weigh-ins live. Even with the buildup and drama between Rockhold Vs Bisping, and Cruz Vs Faber it still…

    However, they had 3 different lines made for security so I was one the front of one of those lines. I didn’t quite make it to the front row this time however, but I did get to the 3rd row which wasn’t terrible. For this event press was allowed into the event but it was the…

    On the 2nd day of fight week it was time for the press conference. Since the line was so long at the gym I decided to show up early for the press conference to hopefully be up close. The conference was supposed to be at 1 PM and so I showed up at about 10:30…

    I arrived at LAX and immediately called a Lyft to take me down to Torrance, California to the UFC gym there were the open workouts would be happening. I packed in just a carry on so I could head down without waiting for luggage or having to bring a lot with me to the gym.…

    I know I mentioned awhile back about the UFC and I thought I’d finally go into a little more detail about the time I headed to a fight back in 2016. Once I decided I was going to go to Inglewood for UFC 199 it was about planning. I knew the first thing was that…

    A couple of weeks ago I read an opinion piece and it has got me thinking. Climate change has been something that has been on my mind since I was a small child. My Mama read The Berenstain Bears Don’t Pollute (Anymore) to me and it struck me. I’ve gone to climate marches, I’ve been…

    Tuesday, December 1, 2015 Tuesday to an outsider’s point of view was pretty uneventful, but from a personal perspective I had one of my favorite nights there. There isn’t much detail for me to go into, so feel free to skip the rest of this post as Wednesday was just my flight home. Next week’s…

    Monday, November 30, 2015 After 3 long nights out, I relaxed a great deal on Monday. But I knew I had my northern lights tour that night so I was excited as it seemed the sky would be clear and the lights would be active. I have got to say, the northern lights did not…

    Sunday, November 29, 2015 … another alarm set for 12 noon. My friend that I had gotten together with on Saturday invited me to brunch with his family. Along with Broadway shows, NYC brunches top my favorite things to do on a NYC weekend. So, there was no way I was missing out on seeing what…
