  1. I would be interested...I sent you a message. Please let me know if you are interested in selling them. Hmmm.....
  2. Yeah - walking the streets of Chicago the night before the game and getting a TBO.com text that he passed away and then getting another text like 15 minutes later that he didn't. It was classy what ND did. He had a huge impact on our program.
  3. Will ESPN Game Day be at the campus or outside Raymond James?
  4. Anyone else notice that the programs have been reduced to free pamphlets? Have had a tradition of buying opening day (and other big game) programs since the first season and could not find any for sale until I finally asked at a team store counter at halftime and the woman pointed to a stack of small pamphlets. She said something about them wanting to make them free so had to make them smaller. Curious - anyone think this may have to do with the free wi-fi available? I'm the first one to admit that I can get any stat or info I need from the gousfbulls.com site so perhaps my collection is moving in the same direction at stamp collecting. Anyone know of this movement at other programs?
  5. Thought college was about preparing you for the next level. I'm letting the coaches worry about getting them ready to compete against NFL-level talent, and I'm taking care of getting them ready to accept NFL-level fans yelling their displeasure when they play bad enough to result in the worst defeat of a FBS team by a FCS team. I personally don't agree with obscenities since players (and families around you) don't need to hear that, so when you think about it, booing is probably one of the best forms of communicating your displeasure. It's general enough in nature that those that are screwing up get the message, and let's face it - a bunch of people in the upper levels yelling different things won't make it down to field as a discernible message but that same number booing will. I can't believe any of those kids walked off the field last night wondering why they were hearing boos and other things. If there were I hope they're not playing next week. And to the psychiatrists on here that think I yell or boo to make me feel better about myself, I have to tell you I still feel like crap this morning.
  6. No, it's not. What else is out there? Raymond James
  7. Our caravan usually doesn't pull into Lot 7 until 5:00 and there's really not a ton of people there. I will do my best to get the whole gang there earlier but I'm not confident about a crowd the size that Taggart is hoping for.
  8. some of us who go to the games like to also have the game on our DVRs for future viewing Exactly - my Sunday morning routine (when possible) is to watch the game I was at the night/day before. Always like to see the replays and how the announcers called it.
  9. "While being evaluated by Tampa Fire Rescue personnel, Mitchell "became agitated," according to the report, and "twice attempted to bite an EMT (against the will of the EMT)." I'm glad they put that last statement in parantheses - I really thought for a minute the EMT wanted to be bitten.
  10. I'm assuming you meant "through" and not "Thursday". The only reason I ask is I was told we (season ticket holders) would be given another chance to up our request for this game. I haven't heard anything official, so I was worried that if you meant you bought some on Thursday maybe I missed the second round. Of course where the sideline seats are still hasn't been mentioned. Hopefully I'll have time to give my rep a call today to find out...
  11. Oh no - here come the student section sign ideas
  12. This is an excellent question. I just requested the sideline seat option without even thinking to look to see if they were the extra 10(?) bucks more per seat. Maybe by "sideline" they mean the lower section surrounding the visiting team tunnel - 123.
  13. I think the family section tickets are the ones that have had the chik-fil-a coupons.
  14. Thanks. Never thought about tying our spots together on our parking request like I do for away game tickets. Then yes - they would assign all of them them based on the lowest point person.
  15. Interesting. I've always thought I could get Lot 5 but have asked for 7 because I don't believe others that park with us would have enough points to get there as well - and I didn't want to have to try to trade out if I was the only one that got it (I realize giving away a 5 for a 7 is not as hard as the other way around, but still just another thing two worry about two weeks before the season stars). Regardless, that means some upper priority point folks have not renewed which means we all moved up a little. Would rather have more people in seats, but that's a small silver lining.
  16. I have replayed the voicemail about 10 times and for the life of me I cannot make out the players name. Maybe I was last on his list and he was a little tired.
  17. I'll bet if you were in graduate school 5 or 6 years ago it would have been the opposite.
  18. Sounds like no one got denied, which would mean they did not get the allotment sold. I'm going to guess that we season ticket holders will get another chance to up the number of tickets we want before they go on sale to public or turned back to UCF.
  19. I bought 2 tickets.... still haven't decided if we're going... That fan base is the nastiest in the state and I still remember my last trip there 5 years ago. It's not the distance... it's the conduct of the crowd at the destination. I swear I must have gone to two different games. Went to the citrus bowl and the erector set and had not one problem either time. And no where near any amount that would make me want to stay away.
  20. I know the excuse will be Thanksgiving weekend, but if we don't have a fan base that can travel an hour-and-a-half to Orlando and back on Friday to at least sell out our allottment, give me a break.
