the custom is to park the elevators at the press box level and hold them there 2 minutes before the half and end of game. the elevators were legitimately not running is why they werent brought back up & parked for the coaches. I have been told by AU and Arkansas sources alike that they were not stuck in the elevator, that was a misunderstanding. the elevator was stuck on the lower level and not waiting on them when they got ready to go down. if thats truly not the case I have been lied to by people with no reason to do so.

Well you were cuz my boss was in the elevator with them when it got stuck. She told me about it and how much their coaches were understandably frustrated and cursing like crazy. If they never got on the North elevator then they could have taken 1 minutes to go to the south elevator and get down to their locker in plenty of time to make halftime adjustments. They never went down the South elevator. They got stuck on the North. By the time they got out of the stuck North elevator there was only about 8 minutes left in halftime so they then were escorted back up to the press box using the South elevator because the Arky team was either on or on it's way back to the field. If they had never gone down using the North elevator then there would have been no need to use the South elevator to go back up. No biggie on the Arky or AU sources not having the correct story. They probably had second hand info and not 1st hand account like me or my boss.
