Got a chance to check out the dogs in person last night (flew out from the south for a few days, lovely city)
Just wanted to comment real quick on the in game entertainment at Husky Stadium.
I thought the Emoji cam was fantastic. I really enjoyed the BECU ad they played a few times as well, nice little jingle there.
Also though it was really cool to tease the students to stay in their seats for a special surprise and then they got little Itty bitty UW flags (jealous, I wanted one).
But shining moment of the night was when everybody turned their flashlights on their phones on and held their phones up high. I've not seen anything like that in SEC country. Amazing. Astonishing. SEC gameday environment could learn a thing or two from you our dogs and the gameday staff. So cool.
Just wish they'd bring back the Oberto Beef Jerky boat races or Chevron (with Techron) car races, those are so much fun.
Lastly, so glad we have places like the zone where you can head out at halftime and grab a nice beverage and some good food before heading back to your seat with 11:38 left in the 4th quarter.
Thank you Jennifer and team!!!!

My favorite was when the band got cut off part way through smells like teen spirit for some corporate jumbo tron shit. I made fun of the people near me for the cell phone LCD bull shit. So fucking stupid. About the only bright spot of late is the return of Capt Husky.

Can we get a concession guy walking the aisles? Want people to be in their seats for the second half? Bring hot dogs/pretzels/beverages right to their fat faces. You need to miss part of the second quarter to have the time to get shitty food and be back for the second half kick. If you leave at the half for your salt bomb you may as well take your hot dog and walk straight to your car and drive home for all the gayme time you miss. I'm a weak, fat fag with money in my wallet and I would buy food if it was brought to my seat. As it stands right now, at the half, I take a leak (stealing some sideways looks at any dicks I can) and come back to my seat (suddenly hungry for hot dogs) and prepare for some thrilling band music.

Still no Cohen tits on the jumbotron.

Cohen is on the record with the halftime exodus being her #1 gameday (champions) experience priority. Hot tip Jen - sell fucking booze in the stadium and these dipshits will stop leaving. Don’t get me wrong, fuck our fans for leaving early and throwing away a surprisingly strong home field advantage that we had in the first half last night, but selling booze will remedy almost all of it.

I hate the new Husky Stadium. Not as loud as it used to be and there seems to be more faggots and less DAWGS there. I disagree with the Chevron car race bashing. I liked being wasted and screaming FIRE TRUCK!!!!!!

I used to think of it as a booze thing, but now I think it's more that every game 10k people show up where they looking at it as a entertainment event just like going to the movies, casino, bowling, karaoke night at the bar, etc and once they aren't enjoying themselves enough for whatever reason just leave.GreenRiverGatorz said:Cohen is on the record with the halftime exodus being her #1 gameday (champions) experience priority.

Last night at half it was rainy/windy/the game looked over, etc etc they saw enough and bolted.
We had 4 guys leave in front of us with 8 minutes left in the 4th, got there mid 2nd quarter.
If Jen Cohen can fix the cultural attendance problems that are UW football, she is wasting her talent. Companies in America would pay her 20 times her current salary just in consulting bullshit fees.
It goes far beyond booze at this point.

I agree. The UW grad demographic is no longer one that lends itself to giving a shit about football. The non-grad fans have transitioned to blowing half their paycheck on nose bleeds at the Clink. So we have who we have in the stands. Might as well get them drunk and monetize the whole thing.godawgst said:
