No wristband left behind
A sampling of the trash contestants left on the ground as they filed into the stadium:
--banana peels
--flip-flops
--cans of energy drink
--cereal boxes
--bags of beef jerky
--an In Touch magazine
--contestant information forms
--makeup brushes
--little golden tambourines
--cans of Slim-Fast
--a "Simon Says" sign
--an entire sleeve of crackers
--an index card with the lyrics to the Doobie Brothers' "Listen to the Music"
