From a post by "mg45" to the 2007AC Forums (General Chatter) this morning:


On a recent trip to NYC,(Sunday, 6/18/06) we were on the observation deck at
30 Rock plaza
(only quite recently open to the public)
There was a small commotion behind me...look about, and there is a bunch of Oracle
folk with a photographer. And the battered LV trunk, and the CUP!!!
Took essentially the same pics that the photographer took.
I guess an advertising shoot. If there is interest I could forward a pic or two to our host?
ps/ Oracle had/has an old cup boat on display on the Roc Plaza
one of those 'had to be there' moments


Thanks "MG" -- glad you enjoyed it. If you want to send us some pics to blog[at]tfehman[dot]com we'll have a look and maybe post them on the BOB. By the way, the Cup was being minded in NYC by ACM's Marcus Hutchinson, among others.

In the meantime, for our dear readers here's an idea of the view (sans Cup) from the Rock Plaza observation deck....


Looking north, over Central Park.
