Hope the lens owner is reunited. |

->> Just curious, how many photographers would be covering this game this early in the season?
I can't imagine that the baselines would be packed. Although I could be wrong since I've never covered college bball. |

->> I am wondering how a lens that is worth at least $3000 does not have a name and phone number on it in a relatively prominent place.
For about $20 you can get a simple label maker and in a few minutes have a name and phone number on every camera body, strobe, lens, teleconverter, radio trigger, camera battery, etc.
If your misplaced gear falls into the right hands, they will know who you are and how to contact you. |

| ->> Oh it just has to be mine, I tried real hard to leave my wallet on the floor tonight at a basketball game in Chattanooga. Thankfully, the photographer who's business card I had just put in it pointed out my minor lapse of memory. :) |

| ->> Question, you left your contact information at Freedom Hall? If I were to do such a thing I would call the venue to see if anyone had seen anything, or (unbelievable) if someone as honest as us photographers was protecting my baby until they could identify me as the owner. |
