    They are intentionally dulling the spearhead to keep the "riff raff" out of their events. This is not an opinion. It is their plan to reduce liability, control the handful of sources for funding and keep the crowds "profile friendly."
    They’re trying to create demand in an area that has no demand.

    Right now, our plan should be the complete opposite: invite anyone and everyone to at least make the event look like there’s an actual event going on.

    They don't want the great unwashed at their events, Gary. We are too much of a liability.

    Right. We don’t have Mardi Gras parades and floats rolling through the Cajun Field parking lot or anything come Mardi Gras weekend. And we don’t have a bunch of rides that are so unsafe that I wouldn’t put my own kid on them in the Cajun Field parking lots either. But “liability.”

    It's crazy that as a fanbase this is what we have to resort to so the admins will listen to us. But what's even crazier is for us all to keep doing the same thing, proposing ideas on a message board that won't ever make it in the right hands and continuing to show up at games and giving the appearance that things are acceptable. No matter the situation it's all about controlling the narrative and the one that controls the narrative wins. Right now we (fans) aren't controlling the narrative, we are crowing in the background and the die hard fans are showing up religiously for more ____ sandwiches.

    One game of boycotting will go a LONG way with the proper message conveyed as to why there is a boycott. Anything less of a stance/message is just a hope and everyone knows hope isn't a strategy.
    I doubt that the players actually pay attention to MH going ons. They probably just look at the numbers that fall low
