    Win, and they will come.

    Not really. We won in 2016 and they never came like the mid 90s. Them days are never coming back.
    Need to do it a few years in a row. But I hear you. Football is dead on the west coast.

    I remember it being packed every game after Stanford. Some people didn't show up for PSU and Idaho.

    I only went to Stanford and USC that year, and both were sold out and loud. Secondary market tickets to USC were over $200 per.

    Yeah this narrative is dumb. I went to most games in 16-18 and half of them in 19.

    We need to pack the house for a 4-8 team against ASU to prove we give a shit or something.

    They did do that 40 years ago. Good for them. I hate the fairweather fans and alums anyways.

    I don’t blame DeBoner for my apathy.

    He’s just a guy trying to do his best with the hand that was dealt.

    I guess. But he was a meh hire and immediately turned out to be a meh recruiter. DeBoer lost his best lineman to (wh)Oregon (lol), who has a first year coach. Best receiver to SC, who has a new coach. He owns some of my apathy.

    We rarely packed the house against shit teams. Ever. 1990-1991 Was an anomaly in history.

    Of you don’t have season tickets you don’t have to fuck up Labor Day weekend with a 7:30 shit game. PSU can be had for $10. I’m going to that. 1:00 tip off and I got parking in E12 for $50. Waiting get tickets but as of now good seats in the $60 range. MSU tickets are higher, but even it is a hot ticket and pay more, I’m still way ahead over all.

    I also go burned on a couple bowl games. Shitty seats from the UW when I could have had much better seats for less money on the secondary market #neverforget.
    We went through the fiesta bowl website I thought and got stuck right in the middle of PSU fans in a pretty shitty area. That did not go over well. They don't like being made fun of for the Sandusky stuff.

    Agree that just getting a handful of games you want can't be beat. I want to go to PSU and MSU but have funerals and kids baptisms and fuck staying overnight in Seattle for Kent State. Has to be a conference game against a team that is not an Arizona/Colorado/Utah type to put up with No Fun City afterwards.
