I've tried to delete my events for the last 30 min..they aren't going away...

You may want to clear your cache and hard refresh. What browser are you using?

I am using IE 8 (its a work computer so I have no choice..haha) but I can try later when I'm at home using Chrome I guess.

I did a refresh..and I also tried clearing them on my phone...no luck

Yeah unfortunately staff has said that the site is not really compatible with IE. Let me know if clearing them at home works!

As mentioned, please try another browser, such as Chrome or Firefox. :)
