Basketball Student section

[Cajunsmike]

Utah State also has about 8K more students than we have.

They are generally snowed in much of basketball season at Utah State. AlSo a Mormon State so less partying up there. Vstill a good idea to review what they do however.

Here is a relevant article posted today by ESPN regarding Atlanta's new stadium and their concession pricing:

Someone please send this Maggard, Greg Davis or whoever runs the concessions at the dome....

Thought this was an interesting article. I know it is pro/amateur and football versus basketball, but the object lesson still seems appropriate to me.

ADDED: I should also have noted that the stadium, after cutting prices by half, had a 16% INCREASE in sales. Kind of goes back to the thought that if the pricing is reasonable folks are much more likely to buy more at the stadium and not eat before coming to games.

Thanks for that info. Would love to know how they did that.

Why can't we lease space to fast food joints?

Why does beer have to cost 4x what I could pay for it across the street at the gas station?

WOW!!!!!

I knew we were getting the shaft. I just didn't realize how bad it actually is!

After reading that article, nobody can, with a straight face, defend the prices at the Cajundome.

"self serve" soda tap. Think about that.

The "Mighty Utah Student Section" (MUSS) didn't even start till 2002.

They had nothing till they tried.

For years UL fans complained about the long lines.

Instead of hiring more workers to sell more food and drink, they priced up to shorted the lines.

A friend of mine showed up at 5:15 and all of the shirts were gone. I’m expecting there to be a really good student section
