The average person walks three miles an hour (4 1/2 feet/second), and one can easily stroll along at two miles an hour (3 feet/sec) or even slower. 100 yards = 300' = 66 seconds at 3 mph, or 100 seconds at 2 mph. That is already 1 minute 40 seconds, so I think the 100 yard estimate is in fact confirmed by the reporter (and it would be interesting to see whether she was trying to prove or disprove it).

I think it's more than a hundred yards. They also had video from where the park bench was. You know... and I'm a person who goes to all the home games.... it even looks like to me that he was trying to get away from people for some reason. He was in an area with trees in it etc. He wasn't right up next to the stadium. I just wonder if for some reason he went away from the stadium for a bit to sit down and maybe tinker with the bomb or something, in a place that he wouldnt' be obvious.... and then the thing went off. That's what I would guess happened.

Also... I know the security is generally tight getting into the stadium. They go through purses, bags, etc. I'm thinking he was maybe trying to find a less obvious place to arrange the bomb to pass security, or something along those lines.
