Growing Pains: Student Tailgating

[ManAboutTown]

In the article she quoted a number of students. I'm just trying to figure out what these kids need in order to go to a football game and enjoy it? They are saying all kinds of stuff like its not interactive enough, the band doesn't play student friendly songs and its "too family friendly". AKA - Not enough cursing or violence or filth to get their fix. Why would the university cater to the student when 25 of them show up every game. This is a quote from one of the students in the article:

“The music is boring and everything is catered to families (even though we have family day) instead of us college students. Needs to be more interactive to hold our attention.” AKA - The band doesn't play hip hop or whatever today's garbage music is called now.

Apparently they want to do keg stands after every score and have X-box's set up so they can play games while the football game is going on or something that entertains them outside of the actual game itself. When I go, I go to see the game and I always have even when I was a student.

Notice, not a single opposing view in the entire article. Couldn't find a single person that did like the new (old) set up. Her interviews are probably her leaning over to her annoying ___ friends and asking their opinion. It's a hit job. She and her friends didn't have a great time, so she decided to write about it. That's it.

She's active on Twitter obviously. Go to her page and invite her.

I got off of twitter a while back. Someone invite her. I'll behave, I swear.

Personally I think the only students that we need to speak to are the Fraternities and sororities. The rest of the student body will follow because these groups will have the best set ups (loudest music, grills, drinks, ETC) with the most people.

Dude, greek life is garbage compared to what it used to be. In theory, I agree. But in reality, it's just not the same anymore.

I’ve been saying for years...do something similar to basketball 3-point shot for cash...have a challenge at the end of each quarter with a rolling pot....

I thought they still did the kick for cash still but I’m not sure. You used to win at least $100 if you made a field goal and if you missed you still won a gift card

And here we go.....gee, I wonder what she is inferring?

That tweet is word salad...can we pleas shut this bishop?

You may not like them, but something needs to be done...same with this article, we all may not agree with her and her research, but the numbers aren’t lying...the students don’t want to be there

I saw the students while they were tailgating and they looks like they were having a great time.....

And from what Napier said on Monday, they appreciated the support from the students that were there and they made a difference. He told them to bring 3-4 friends with them next time
