Waterproof note pads?

I remember we had a thread on this awhile ago, but I searched and couldn't find anything. I spent Friday and Saturday getting myself (and my note pad) soaked at a pair of football games. Does anybody know where I could buy waterproof notebooks? I Googled it, but only came up with a supplier in Britain. I use a recorder for interviews in the rain, but its a little hard to keep stats on a recorder. Help!

 

Military supply store. They're not cheap, so you may not want to take pages and pages of stats.

You can also try writing with Sharpie (doesn't freeze) on a regular notebook tucked inside a clear plastic trash bag or big ziploc bag.

 

The press box is dry. When it rains, I'd keep stats from up there. But that's just me.

 

If only I had that luxury. One of the fields does not have a press box, and I had to take photos at both games as well.

 

You can find clip boards with plastic screens. Those help.
And always have a couple pencils handy with you on the field. I covered a game one night that was so cold, my pens froze. A pencil would have come in handy.

I had to read that sentence again, very carefully.

 

All hail, JD!

 

Fantastic! I might have to see if the company will pick the tab for a few of those. Thanks!

 

I had that happen a couple of times in Idaho, one time in a press box. That is why it is a good idea to care a pencil in your bag.

 

Glad I wasn't the only one
