Alumni Association = Stupid Run Organization

They are charging $50 per person to get into their tent on Saturday at Rice. First of all Rice charged them $10000 fee to set it up. Plus they have to pay an additional $2500 to the City of Houston for a tourist fee. Now the University is not going to cover this. So they are charging $50 per person to cover their idiot agreement. As of Friday they only had 14 sign up. Plus they sent out notices and UL Lafayette everything. We have a message problem big time!! I do not work with idiots!!!!

Those AA tailgates are notoriously boring anyway. I'll be a lot happier pre-gaming in Rice Village.

I must have screwed up; I thought I paid for food and beverages at a tailgate tent?

Try this: https://calendar.louisiana.edu/alumn.../event_id/9288

They changed all of there references from UL Lafayette to Louisiana. Someone must have gotten the memo. I have been on a fight on LinkedIn with the University. I believe we are winning.

Will you even be attending the game?

I do not live near Rice anymore. I live on Lake Conroe in Montgomery.

So why complain?

Is there no open tailgate area there? I mean to setup a tent and cook?
