Nate shares the following misconception of broadcast media:

Being a sports fan, I used to regularly watch NBA games on the weekend with my dad, sometimes a double header. What confused me on the day of a double header was that as soon as the first game was over, the next would start in a completely different looking arena. I inquired as to how they could paint the floor so fast for two totally different teams, and have it be dry in enough time for them to immediately start playing on it. I was informed that it was actually a different arena.

I also thought the radio worked in a similar fashion, with a large stage with the bands in a line waiting to go live and play their one song and quickly getting out of the way for the next performer.....

I was completely stupid.

Recreating an old Far Side joke, Derrick submits the following:

I used to be really stupid. I used to ride around in the car with my mother and listen to the radio. It blew my mind that an entire band could fit somewhere in the car. Where did they hide and just how small were they? How come cant see them when I peek into the speakers? Do they play in the dark. What do they eat, or do they just work 9-5 and then go home. Who picks up the night shift when the regular band goes home?

I WAS that stupid
