I wish the Alumni Assoc. would have a bus trip to Houston for the game. They seem to have lost interest in those. I think the only one scheduled is Monroe.

Because they're our BIG RIVAL!!

We MUST turn out huge every year for that game, home or away! Our season depends on it. It's just like Ohio State vs. Michigan; and LSU vs. Alabama.

LSU and Alabama would be right. LSU sees it as the biggest rival and Alabama fans see Auburn and Tennessee as bigger rivals.

The Alumni Association is throwing a $50/person tailgate outside of the stadium prior to the game. I'm more of an "ice chest and lawn chair in the parking lot" kind of guy...who's with me?

We’ll be tailgating out of the back of my truck.

BTW, got my call this morning from the Cajundome and secured my 8 tickets. We ready.

I got a call from our ticket office yesterday afternoon; I called back this morning and paid for them. I think we had to reserve what we wanted back in June or July which I did. There was an email sent out in reference to the Rice game tickets.

All Alumni Association staff will be in Houston handling the Friday night get together and tailgating event on Saturday. Like many campus groups these days, they are shorthanded. No one is available to lead a bus trip. Volunteers handled the NO Bowl trip last December but those people are spending the weekend in Houston.

They are short handed and so is the RCAF, down to 2 employees. Why are they always so slow to replace people who leave? It's really frustrating, could be so much better.

$50....They obviously needed a few sponsors?

That was my reaction. Not real economic to ask me to drop $250 on tailgating.

Is this a setup for future "not worth it"s?

Three times what it costs at home?

T is right, they need to subsidize this and put it on the same plane as a home game.

The interchange. They started clearing land this week. Hopefully it doesn’t take as long as the last overpass they did in Broussard. I drove through that construction area for years.

The game against the Funroevians is a no win situation. People will only notice if you lose.

Yes. Wave your hands in the air if you a true player. I can see some women tonight that should be having my baby. My baby.

Actually I tell my kids that all the time. Now my daughters friends all call me that too.

That keanu reeves movie where he has to coach a inter city little league team and the pitcher plays that song on repeat. That’s all I see is the kid dancing on the mound when I here that song.
