Dr Beinfest Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 http://knightnews.com/2010/08/ucf-death-suicide-body-found-in-millican-hall-parking-lot/ In the midst of Day 1 Move-In, someone was seen slouching in his BMW over the steering wheel. The cops were called in, they busted one of the windows open, but the guy had been dead for a while. Im posting this because I was a first hand witness to the some 5 news trucks, 3 news helecopters, 20some cop cars, and the crime scene unit. Apparently the man shot himself, although they are not positive, nor do they yet have a positive ID of the man. Funny, because absolutely NOBODY here heard any gunshots, I didnt think a car body could muffle a sound that much... anyways... good news everyone. It's about 50 feet from my dorm room. Furthermore, the crime scene tape was... 2 cars away from making my car part of the scene! yay. What a great first day here at UCF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entendu Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Ouch, that's terrible. I remember how it was at FIU when Kendall Barry was murder. My Calculus teacher had the murderer in another calc class and was freaking out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Beinfest Posted August 22, 2010 Author Share Posted August 22, 2010 Ah cool so... it looks like Brighthouse Network is a nightmare then, no FSNF? Ill go crazy. Its still Fins territory though right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brighthouse is alright. I don't know how it's like on campus, but elsewhere FSN is channel 50. Not so sure about the Fins, since im not a fan.

Lol I guess we are unlucky on campus... but nah the commercials keep on coming on about Brighthouse Networks from ESPN that the entire company is failing to reach contract negotiations with BHN and that they will be dropped in 2 weeks if they dont reach an agreement, and they suggest you switch to another provider. And yeah, no FSNF, only SUN. But the Dolphins/Jax game was on tv while the Bucs were blacked out. Seems pretty nice around here so far though.

Alexdw85 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I lived in orlando for a couple years and unless somthings changed ur gonna be getting Jacksonville. For whatever terrible reason the NFL has designated Orlando a "Jags city" and therefore the Jags get first priority there. Ull get Bucs games too since they are on a separate network but ull have to hope for no Jax scheduling conflicts with Fins games to get those. i recommend checking out one of the many sports bars located in the area. Even though I thought the city itself was kind of blah, I really enjoyed the atmosphere at the sports bars on Sundays. Something thats hard to find in SoFla.

Dr Beinfest Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share Posted August 23, 2010 Yeah, either way since Fins games are once a week it shouldnt be hard to catch them up here. Unfortunately you cant say the same thing about Marlins games, which are every day. And no FSNF. And no Panthers either. As far as the Heat go... luckily they are the Heat... even with the Magic here I cant imagine I'm not going to get a few games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FutureGM Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 We used to have FSNF here, but not long after I moved here in spring '09 they took the channel off of their standard cable lineup. Now you need to have digital cable to watch it. Why? Nobody I talked to at BrightHouse seemed to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Beinfest Posted August 27, 2010 Author Share Posted August 27, 2010 Yeah, Brighthouse I fear really, really sucks. They have it everywhere, including Jacksonville to Key West. Just not in between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
