The 100th spec's title was "The First 100 Years."

Why and when did Duane go from the Blue to the Red?

Not sure of that, Mike - but it was a sad day to see him go from Center Ring to selling programs after he left the Alley. ~frank

Frank,
That reminds me of Willie Sutton, when asked why he robbed banks and he said "because that's where the money is". As far as I know the program sellers made really good money, especially the one on the outside in the parking lot.
