This has to be a promotion.
Start it already.
Yea, missed opportunity... I was hoping for commemorative CF t-shirts during Fan Day ahead of this season.Quote:

Seems like with this time change and the no marketing on the last CF game that Martin Hall is desperately running for the exit.Quote:

I was there for the first game at Cajun Field and actually still have the game program. I also hope to be there for the last game on the 25th.
That’s a very cool thing to do! I was in HS just down the street when it opened. Went to games prior to starting USL in 74. Honestly say I can’t recall if I made games the inaugural year. Won’t make this final game but already told the wife we’re going next year and definitely the following year to enjoy the new digs.Quote:

If you are wondering about why there is a pipe across the top of the tunnel on the field side it's because somebody designed a retaining wall and didn't know what they were doing. Just saying.
Exactly like the huge push made for the 50th anniversary season at CF...boy was that a great campaign...Quote:
