    Bring back some of the blue collars. You guys love to call them white trash and South Sound losers (okay, me too), but who really made the noise? It wasn't the senior citizens, or the guys with lissssps drinking appletinis, or some Microsoft nerd transplant from Chicago who isn't a fan.

    This post isnt classy at all

    Husky stadium has sucked since 1993

    The Oregon State game in 1999 was as loud as I've ever heard HS. I had tickets last night but decided against attending. The GF wanted to stay home and sit in the hot tub and fuck, so I measured that against watching mediocre football in the 40 degree wind and made the call.

    HTH
    How's your cornhole?

    Ok a bit of hyperbole on my part but good games since 1993 doesn't mean the gameday experience didn't start sucking from that time.

    The band and the general experience started declining under Babs. Part of it was the higher cost, part not understanding that the game is what matters not the other shit.

    Even in 2000 there were poorly attended games with a listless crowd.

    I remember the UCLA game being cold, wet, and probably not sold out.

    My wife noticed the line to the Zone and was surprised the stadium still looked relatively full for how many Zima Drinking Zonies were waiting in line.

    I get that the Athletic Department needs to pay for the stadium bonds but I can't wait until the get rid of the Zone and move the band and students back to their old location to bring more energy back to the Stadium.

    Also, why don't they find someone to volunteer to be Captain Husky? Fuck if they can't find someone, pay someone to do it.
