Re: 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!

Well it started out as a joke.

Re: Game time
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.

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.BleedingBLue wrote: ↑Mon Sep 26, 2022 10:00 amIs this a joke?

Re: Game time
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.onceacat wrote: ↑Tue Sep 27, 2022 10:45 amI don't know about the rest, but in SLC, Boise, and Boulder, the stadium doesn't butt up to residential neighborhoods.BleedingBLue wrote: ↑Mon Sep 26, 2022 10:00 amIs this a joke?

Re: Game time
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 itonceacat wrote: ↑Tue Sep 27, 2022 10:45 amI don't know about the rest, but in SLC, Boise, and Boulder, the stadium doesn't butt up to residential neighborhoods.BleedingBLue wrote: ↑Mon Sep 26, 2022 10:00 amIs this a joke?

Re: Game time
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.WSUWILDCAT wrote: ↑Tue Sep 27, 2022 9:29 amrivercat wrote: ↑Sun Sep 25, 2022 11:32 pmIt's likely that the vast majority neighbors now have moved into the area of an existing football stadium.

Re: Game time
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.
