Awesome! "Mi mi mi mi mi..."
-
We will be there, four strong, and bringing five guests with us. There's always a good time at the Rob.

I'm glad to hear that! His point of reference was that he didn't have to push through crowds on his way to the bar, so...
-
Will be going to this and bringing the husband and kids, all of us wearing green. Just renewed our men's season BB tix, too. We really enjoy going to the games.

I'm not predicting a score because, frankly, I don't know which Houston team will show up. I do think that the Mean Green win this year either way.

Houston-Rice was in Reliant, and although the Houston Chronicle reported 40,000 tickets sold, my friends who were there said that it had to've been about 15K that showed up.
-
Yes - this happened in our last home game - and could have happened tonight - the electronic scanner was not working and they ran out of tickets
That's just not right. I went to the stadium with a friend at 11:30 am and was told there were plenty of student tickets left, and we picked up our own student tickets... the students need to be able to get in the game.

Great day for football. Go Mean Green!

So much of this stuff sounds so yummy... but I must admit, the apple pie moonshine has me intrigued.
We are not tailgating today because I (the mom of the bunch) am sick, so I am resting up until we can head to the PACS tent to say hello to friends and go into the game. If we were tailgating, we would likely have made our standard boneless chicken stuffed with diced cheese and jalapenos, then wrapped in bacon and grilled, slapped with a little teriyaki sauce at the end. Good stuff.

For a second there I thought this was a picture of an SMU home game.
Haw! I love it.
-
Just five home games and not a very attractive home schedule seems like such a waste of a beautiful facility like Apogee. Just my thought.
This is my thought as well. 5 home games, one on a Tuesday night (during the winding down of Rangers baseball), and one against Texas Southern... it's just a little disappointing. I have high hopes for NT football and, while it will take some time to achieve some things, this schedule feels like a sizable step back.

I will believe it when I see it... but I think this would be a good move for NT.
Random Idea in regards to changing the culture...

I'm the kind of person who roots for my schools whether they win or lose, so I'm not the person you need to market to. To market to the masses, it will take winning, and winning consistently. Things tend to fall into place when you win consistently.
However, I love the live mascot idea. I think it's really cool when a school has a live mascot.
My junior year of high school, we went to FCA Day at Rice; Grant Teaff spoke to us kids pre-game, and then we stayed for the game. Everyone talked about the real bear cub Baylor brought. I think Rice may have had a real owl, too. My first year of undergrad was the last year Houston had a live cougar, and people were in awe when she held court at the games.
Sorry, didn't mean to digress... I love Scrappy; he does a great job and my kids have had many fun photo ops with him. But a live eagle would be a really cool thing to have.
