• Shannon confident the date went well.
• No kissing or overt romantic moments, but the vibe felt good.

• Felt like it lasted 15+ minutes.
• He wants to focus on the present, not dwell in the past.
• Said it gave him “a weird vibe.”

• Hosts question both sides: Is it okay to ask about exes on a first date?

CLOSURE

• Craig declines: “Cat’s out of the bag. It already happened.”
• Shannon disappointed but thanks the hosts.
• Both wish each other well.

HOSTS RECAP + COMMENTARY

• Hosts reflect on:

Data-Driven Decision Making

• Go where the fans are – maximize attendance and long-term success.

Timeline & Urgency

• Goal: Open new stadium by 2029.
• Concerns about tight turnaround for:
