Boomer

I know it’s taking longer for the lots to empty out. May have to break out the chairs next game.

Nothin’ to worry about there.

If I win, it will be called Boomer Stadium.

WVU never considered us their rival. As fun as those games were (and I went to every one of them both in Tampa and Morgantown), Pitt was their rival and really still is even though they live in different conferences now. I really wanted us to be rivals and I believe they only won one more game than us in the series, but it was clear they thought no more of us as a rival as anyone else in the Big East.

Because right now they appear to be the better team.

Would’ve loved to have had a screenshot of that and be able to post it in the locker room.

That’s a great question, and it pains me to say we shouldn’t.

At this point our program needs P5 players not happy with their playing time to transfer. So hopefully every time they say that, some talented P5 player is considering his options. Someday we may not rely on transfers, but right now we do.

A friend of mine texted the same during the game. I missed it.

GOOOOOLD!

I think Alfalfa may have beaten you to “it”.

Thanks - just put it on my phone!

Wait - LSU instructs their band not to play a certain song, and when they do they get fined? Surely there’s a university employee somewhere in the chain that would be held accountable right? A fine seems like a strange consequence in this type of relationship.

No more than saying, "United We Stand" means we don't usually get..... Never mind.

GREEN!

If it was the 1987 show with Gregg Allman, I was at that show as well. One of the best...

Thankfully I get the BTN channels as part of my sports package with Spectrum. I went on last night to record the game and happened to catch a brief discussion on the matchup.

How bad of a person would I be to keep this 8pm info to myself and tell the rest of my tailgating crew that it's a 7pm game so I get a whole extra hour of tailgating?

If they don't break out the black unis for the ECU game, then I'm betting Strong's saving them for Black Friday.

Of course that option might be a tad more than $9.99.

2006 @ #7 WVU Mountaineers Everyone remembers the 2007 home game and all it’s greatness, but this one was pretty special and I had the pleasure of being at the game. A beautiful autumn day as well.

Our tailgating party comes from three different directions (St. Pete, Lutz, & Brandon) so it's tough for the group to do that. We're in talks right now about a plan to be able to be very flexible. We've had too many early season games where we all sit in the parking lot in our own cars while it pours for an hour or so and then wait for a long enough break to make the run to the stadium. The plan now is to get to our meeting location at our normal 3:30 time. We're going to have a conference call at 2:30. If a storm is imminent, we will dog off the tailgate and get to our meeting location at 5:00 so we can convoy in and at least have a chance to party after the game together in the lot. This also means we'll be planning to fend for ourselves as far as food goes this time since we won't know in advance whether we'll be able to do the normal sharing, so we may just plan to do a drive through on the way or something from the Publix deli. Just hope this cycle of evening rains takes a break Saturday.

Because the weather forecasters are expecting a continuation of these 6:00 pm massive deluges and lightning storms through the weekend, I'm thinking ponchos for sure.

Absolutely. Even if you have no plans to use them, bring them to your work or anywhere else you happen to go between now and Saturday.

I just read where the pre-game family fun zone that used to be in the south parking lot has been moved to the actual stadium plaza on the south side under the scoreboard. Wonder what resistance security put up before this was decided on. I can imagine it's a bit tougher to keep your eyes on things with the bounce houses, vendor booths, etc. involved. Also, any insight as to why this was done? More room for the tailgate guys? I don't think I even noticed them last year.
