My routine was exactly the same except we didn't go home during the day. We stayed in (the Tampa Waterside Marriott) across the street from the Forum. I like to walk on the day of games, whether it's outside or at the mall or whatever. Well, I couldn't walk outside the hotel that day because it was packed with people. So I called a grade-school buddy who was in town and told him to pick me up and take me to the mall. So he picks me up, and we're driving down Kennedy Boulevard headed to WestShore mall, and he says, "I'm too nervous. I can't drive. You have to drive.'' I said, "You're nervous?!'' So I drove to the mall and walked around.
