    The nerdy Asian student argument is overblown. I look at footage from the 90s and it wasn't just the students going crazy. It was a lot of UW hick versions of Popcorn and flag waiving guy going ape shit for bad ass football.

    Those guys have all moved on to being 12s now. That's what 15 years of shit football do to you. It's about winning and getting the young guys caught up in the magic.

    I was a kid in Seattle while my dad went to school there 88-91. Grew up in student housing and watched the legends play and sound the siren and win.

    I went to a UC for school. I haven't lived in Washington for 18 years. I still spend most of my miserable life following this shit team. It's not the nerdy student body. Nerdy Asians are actually quite fanatical and will pack a house to watch a robot hello kitty get raped by jello.

    WIN MORE GAMES.

    Seems relevant (also, I've been to this place - Robot Restaurant in Kabukicho - it's very awesome)

    I know it has been mentioned already, but the student body composition is a huge issue. A bunch of fucking nerd Asians are not going to fill the stadium. Half the student body aren't even Washington kids anymore.

    There are tons of issues, but the big three are shitty team, student body, stupid gimmicky gameday atmosphere, in that order. So, get a real fucking coach, start letting normal kids back into the school, burn Crazy Larry at the 50 for halftime entertainment. Viola.

    We are so fucked.

    They're never going back to letting in 3.5 Washington kids, those new dorms over on 40th aren't going to pay for themselves.
    I would never get into UW if I applied now.

    The Asian kids from the Seattle area are good fans, it's a matter of familiarity not genes. If the team was winning then the children of new immigrants would be innoculated early with what a good program means.

    Quite honestly, that's what I meant. It's not that they are asian, it's that they are asian from another country or CA and don't give one flying fuck about UW football. They are in Suzzallo all the fucking time anyway. Losers.

    Link?

    If you are a season ticket holder or someone that regularly buys tickets through the ticket office, I would expect that you'd get the survey. If not, you probably don't need to see the survey anyway.
    Who the fuck would buy UW season tickets right now?
    Because I'm old, rich, and white ... do I need another reason?

    Good point. I should really use my tribal card to get more shit. But yeah, my 3.4 GPA in HS is shit, and would never get me in unless I went the pussy "I'm a poor disadvantaged minority" route.
