I had a manager 10 years ago tell me we should start using these “API” things he had just read about. A conspicuously non-technical manager, obviously.
I bought a batch of that shit once that had been dyed green - you could tell because most of the green pigment ended up concentrated at the end of the fat stems. Nastiest shit ever, I’m probably lucky to be alive.
Their original stadium (Foxboro) cost an incredibly-low $7 million to build circa 1970.
