Boulder: A Redemption Post

Yeah, so yesterday's trek to Boulder could have been a recipe for disaster:

-Waking up at 4:30 am for an early morning flight (woof)
- Wandering aimlessly around the confusing Denver airport (two levels and four "islands" for passenger pick-up? seriously?)
- Walking in circles for 30 minutes in search of a burger joint. That was 300 feet away (left means right at 5400 feet apparently)
- Waiting on the street corner like idiots for a taxi cab that was dispatched to Denver by mistake (and accidentally clotheslining a monk with a heavy bag of books...yay karma)

Mix in some preconceived notions (which Sarah touched on here) and things were not looking so good. That is, until Matt Galligan changed our minds and stepped up to bat for a little one on one with the Sarahcuda (video after the jump)

Sure enough, Matt was right! New Tech featured four excellent demos, and we had a fantastic meet-up afterwards with 20+ entrepreneurs, two surfboards of sushi, and some badass sake.

However, I knew I loved you Boulder when I stumbled upon the New Tech attendee of the century....
