my contacts say there was a collision, both players got up, and the player that died collapsed some time afterward... don't know if it was immediately or a few shifts later. I would think it was shortly afterward.
from what I was told, it was a clean play...

Patrick is survived by his parents, Michael and Gayle, and three siblings, Abby, 18; Anna, 17, and Matthew, 11. His family lives in Eagan

The kid was behind Brandon in school. I can't imagine what it's like to not have one of my kids around in the house due to a freak accident.
So here is my little project I've been working on the last couple weekends, here is the trailer nothing special just a 8x12 with a drop door for loading and a small access door in the front. I put some bigger wheels on didn't like the 10"wheels on there with the really wide tire and opted for the 13" wheel with skinnier tires (bigger wheel means less rotation on the bearings)

So here is a pic of the inside, I used 4X8 1" insulation between all the studs of the trailer and ceiling

Next I used some 4X10 .090 thick plastix that you would find in like a gas station walls where it has the little bubbles on it and is rubbery, very light material

Next up was the glides for the snowmobiles on the trailer. (for got how expensive that **** was... $600) I used all Caliber products slides, still waiting on the track slide for the door was on back order along with the end ramp pieces to protect the plywood.


Next up was lighting for the inside. I did a lot of research and what everyone seems to be doing is using LED Rope lighting So I bought some through brite lights aka Bluhm Enterprises 25ft worth of LED's which was 450 total LEDS 1875 lumens. I ran these along the top studs of the trailer so I have 8ft running towards the back another 8ft in the middle and another 8ft in the front.


The next thing I wanted was some sort of better lighting for loading/unloading during the night so looked around and came across a 42" Cree 288watt LED light bar that are used for off roading. This sucker is very heavy duty and should work just fine for what I need.

And here she is right now with the lighting all installed, (pic was taken with all the lights in the garage shut off), just have a few more panels on top to put on and my backordered parts yet to arrive for the door. I also have yet to install a fuel door ( 12"X12" door on the side for fueling purposes) and some vents on the top side of the trailer.
