... In Which We Get "Flashed"

Alex, Simon, and Eva got free tickets to a Utah Flash game at school. In the interest of helping both the unwashed masses (you know who you are!) and future sports historians who read this post, I'll explain that the Utah Flash is Utah County's NBA Developmental League team. It's like a minor-league Utah Jazz team. The games are held at the David O. McKay arena at UVSC. The best players may get a shot at the NBA, but most will toil in obscurity for a few years before moving on to other things (the best Flash player is Morris Almond, who was drafted by the Jazz and has been called up by them and sent back down a couple of times). Eva and Michelle decided to make it a girls' night out while Simon, Alex, and I went to the game. The Flash lost, but, in the words of a great and unfortunately anonymous writer: a good time was had by all.
