It doesn't mean you don't do analysis on top of it.

A different data source than other people have? No, I don't think so at all. It's the things people emphasize in terms of what they look like, look at could be different, I think, very much by teams. There are teams at the draft who just have you take a psychological test. You get to interview a set of kids and they might just have you take a test. Other teams, it's all about the interview.

Some people, I don't know if they have them see psychologists. I don't know. But people will use different techniques to try to do some of that. It's a little different than analytics, but it gives you the sense of how do you assess what's important.

And I've been involved in, you know, I'll say the visioning, and I call myself a visionary, but what should this product look like? And particularly those, you know, a number of them, both windows, but also certainly on the backend products, backend meaning they're not customer visible. But I would say Intuitome is probably the product for which I have the clearest vision. Yeah.

It evolved some because we went and looked at a bunch of other arenas, but I had a point of view. I know what user I wanted to make happy.

I wanted to make Intuit Dome the best place for the hardcore basketball fan. And particularly the hardcore Clippers fan, right? Sure, sure, sure, of course, because we're the only team that plays there.

Not trying to help them.

So, you know, yes, Clipper fans, but we're going to have the Olympics. We'll have every Olympic basketball game in Intuit. I want it to be great for those environments. We have some college games or high school games in there. Basketball, basketball, basketball. So you sit in there and you're a fan. It's a live event. Got to have energy. Got to have intensity.

If you're a basketball fan, come on, let's go. So you want it tight. You want to have it reverberating with people who are cheering. We built essentially a whole side of the building is structured more like a college gym, long and steep. There's no suites on the side. We even built a student section right in the middle, i.e. it's standing room only. You must stand.

That's what you have to agree to if you're going to sit there or be there. You have to agree to stand. You have to agree to cheer. And if you don't, we'll find you another place in the building to sit. But you can't wear visiting gear paraphernalia on that whole side. 4,000 seats will move you if otherwise. It's small. Not the number of seats. It's a little small.

But the way we pulled it together, there's no hockey. I didn't want hockey. Not that hockey's not a great sport. Compromises you'd have to make to the arena. You have to spread it out. You have to spread people out because the rink is bigger than the court. Very different. Basketball. We put in this, we have an acre of scoreboard. Yeah.
