Game time

Maybe MSU should allow out-of-town fans to throw up some tents on the field and camp out after the game is over!

So when the neighbors complain this time they get to complain about both the noise shed and the light shed. What's the neighborhood come to?

I'd say the neighbors would have a legitimate complaint about a noise disturbance if the game last the amount of time most games do and the noise goes on between 11:15 and 11:45 PM.

It's likely that the vast majority neighbors now have moved into the area of an existing football stadium. So I have zero sympathy. Don't like the noise, then leave. Or better yet, buy a ticket and enjoy the show.

Understood, but there is a reasonableness and past 11 pm Is not reasonable - If you checked Bozeman statues you will find the witching hour earlier than 11 pm. This is total inconsideration by all involved in scheduling, of both late hour noise and much of the fan base having to drive back home starting around midnight! This is just another example that the Disney companies don't give a rip about people.

Is this a joke? Every Saturday there are games at 8, 815 and 830 on ESPN, FS1 and CBSSN. If you want to be on national TV in the mountain or pacific time zones, this is how you do it. I doubt people in Salt Lake, Boise, Laramie, Reno, Fresno, Pullman, Boulder etc. are complaining.

Well it started out as a joke. But it may evolve into a letter to the editor in the Chronicle and after that, maybe it'll be part of a book.

I’m disappointed it’s going on ESPNU and not ESPN2. I’ll be at the game so it won’t affect me, but seems like the National exposure will be down because of that.

It's like people here moving next to Hill AFB and then complaining about the jet noise.

Hot tubs on flatbed trailers, mud wrestling sorority girls, furniture bonfires, AGR's passed out with gallon size glass liquor bottles....I wouldn't mind a trip back to the 80's when I was a tailgating on the student side, as a student. It was great, or at least the parts I can remember....

I don't know about the rest, but in SLC, Boise, and Boulder, the stadium doesn't butt up to residential neighborhoods.

I'm not actually that sympathetic to the neighbors, but its not really the same situation.

When I lived in Korea, my room was located near the end of the runway (we had F-16s and A-10s) and Base leadership had a Giant Voice speaker located right outside my window. I didn’t sleep for a year.

Both Folsom Field in Boulder and Rice-Eccles in Salt Lake are about 2 blocks from large neighborhoods and/or apartments so I'd disagree, it's very much the same. It's a little ridiculous people who choose to live near a stadium complain about the stadium. And this Saturday is 1 out of 6 to 9 gamedays a year.

That book was hilarious. "A woman called to complain that MSU students had built a laser and were shining it into her house to burn her legs"

The difference in Bozeman is that the residential neighborhoods butted themselves up to the stadium. Those used to be fields. They built/moved in next to a stadium. They can't act shocked that a college football stadium is loud for 6-8 days out of a 365 day year for about 4-6 hours each time. The complainers need to relax. Buy a ticket. Come have a fun evening. I mean if you chose to live next a stadium, might as well enjoy it

Okay, I grew up in a home literally a stone’s throw from the MSC/U campus. My dad worked there. We always heard four blasts from the steam whistle everyday, the cannon from Gatton field, the band (those drums really carry). We heard the noise late at night when the huge panty-raid occurred, and were awakened by the cannon being fired on the corner of College and 8th. The constant construction noise and traffic. The mass moans of freshmen seeing the grade on their calculus final. And we loved it all. The only bothersome noise was the increasing 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. traffic and the advent of loud little cars and big trucks. The various sounds meant the campus was alive, a fun, happy, vibrant place. I wanted ever so much for my first 18 years to be able to go to school there, and from an unexpected assist it worked out. When we moved away we really missed the proximity of the campus. My advice — look at the neighborhood (and town) carefully before you commit. And after you do, then vigorously protest all zoning changes. I can’t believe anyone living near the campus bemoaning the sounds of happy people at a game. It sure beats gunfire.

It happens once every 20 years. I don't give a crap if there is incredible noise on a Saturday night once every 20 years. Anyone who complains is a Karen/Kevin. Hell, don't like it, buy a ticket and go to the damn game. Then you get some fun to go with the noise.
