    Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck I'm starting to get excited. The release next Saturday after all this edging will bring such relief.

    • Once beer and wine are available at concession stands, stop allowing re-entry into the stadium. Currently, thousands of fans stream into the parking lots to get in some extra tailgating before the third quarter starts, and that results in a bunch of empty seats at kickoff.

    The more I think about it, this is exactly the opposite of what they should do. It got me thinking back to being a poor kid in middle school that would hang out until halftime of the varsity games and then enter the stadium, because it was free after then. The UW AD should turn the third quarter into Thunderdome. To be fair about bathroom/concession lines, etc., they should pick a time shortly after the start of the third quarter--say, ten minutes after the third quarter kickoff--to give people a fair amount of time to pinch it off and get back to their seats, and then pull a reverse-Stalin and open the gates. Free to enter after then, and any empty seat is fair game.

    Up the concessions/souvenir game just outside the stadium to maximize profits from the poor/cheap/drunk people that hang out outside waiting for the floodgates to open. Give them something to do, give them screens to keep up on the action with.

    Result: Instead of empty seats in the third, the stadium will suddenly fill up. And get louder. It's been scientifically proven that poorer/drunker people cheer the loudest. That's just a fact. This is totally a win-win. Far from costing the AD money, it would be net positive due to a slight increase in concessions sales to people without tickets. Crowds would be consistently big and loud throughout the game and convey the sense of a more passionate fan base.

    And if people bitch about getting back from their tailgate to find their seat taken? Tough shit, pussy fan, go find some standing room on the terrace.
    Also they should play Jump Around at the end of the 3rd quarter.
    That's an excellent call. Can they find a place for "Are You Ready for This?" too?

    Is it just me and these margaritas but does Bush have the same mannerisms as Pete when asserting these questions
    Good catch. He has always been a Pete clone. Mannerisms, speech patterns to the T.

    Hugh Millen on Softy pod (yeah, I know) talking about Skinny, eviscerated the upperclassman WRs from what he saw at scrimmages. Said if Fuller was at SC with PC, the younger guys would play over him. "He doesn't have it".

    He got mad at them or?
