Thanks! Sounds like a great idea!BobcatDel wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 11:10 pmWhite lot is between the field house and Kagy….enter off 11th. Is that what you were asking? The area closest to Kagy in that lot usually has a few tailgate spots and RV spots……but other than that you can usually get a good spot fairly close to stadium. And even sit on a chair in the lot and have a beverage in some spots!Mrs TrackCat wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 8:38 pmI hate getting to my seat late, so I went in a little over an hour early.

Thank You! I had not seen that map as I was hurrying on Saturday trying to find an answer on my phone.DMMDCats wrote: ↑Tue Sep 14, 2021 4:21 am“ White lot is between the field house and Kagy….enter off 11th.

The lot right off Kagy is the Roayl(blue) lot. Those spots are $200 a spot for the six games.
The white lot is also shown in the map:

Re: The Good, the Bad, the Ugly - Drake
$200 is what we were paying for our other designated spot also, so this looks like an option should we choose. Many of the numbered spots in the blue lot, appeared to be vacant last year, not sure about this year.DMMDCats wrote: ↑Tue Sep 14, 2021 4:21 am“ White lot is between the field house and Kagy….enter off 11th.

Yes. But I think that was Lerfield and maybe the crew being rusty from 2 years off. . Along with the camera being behind on the deep balls alot of the time.codecat wrote: ↑Tue Sep 14, 2021 6:01 pmCatsNoMatterWhat wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 7:38 pmI watched the entire game on ESPN+...catsrback76 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 12, 2021 6:51 pmThe Good:

Re: The Good, the Bad, the Ugly - Drake
Yes, we all should have seen the same streaming content. Commercial breaks, like on SWX, are synchronized with the game because the crew on the field holds up play until they get the “all clear” from the TV production crew — sometimes the one with the fluorescent orange glove. It’s trickier if there are two productions, the one being shown on ESPN+ being announced at the beginning as “brought to you by Learfield Sports Properties.” Learfield was obviously left on their own to show their commercials without game synchronization. They appeared to have sold about 60 seconds extra during each break, therefore often sacrificing the first play. Not tidy.codecat wrote: ↑Tue Sep 14, 2021 6:01 pmCatsNoMatterWhat wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 7:38 pmI watched the entire game on ESPN+...catsrback76 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 12, 2021 6:51 pmThe Good:

Re: The Good, the Bad, the Ugly - Drake
The Good. There’s been a lot of talk about the importance of depth in the various position groups. If Tucker Rovig is not the best QB2 in the league, then who is? He came in, never dropped a snap, never had a procedure penalty. His good ball handling set up a nice run, he missed a route over the middle (no replay, don’t know what happened), and then dropped a dime to Cam Gardner for a touchdown. Good job, Tucker. Not too often a new quarterback merges into the game that smoothly.
Bad. Having to wait a week for another game.
The Ugly. Only having an 11-game regular season.

I'm curious why they don't pick up the SWX feed. I was toggling between the Cats and Griz espn+ feeds. The Griz game appeared to be the SWX production.

Re: The Good, the Bad, the Ugly - Drake
I was wondering the same thing. Thought it might be that ESPN would have to pay for the SWX broadcast and ESPN’s greed wouldn’t allow that. But, if the griz SWX cast was on ESPN, that theory goes out the window.Catfanatic84 wrote: ↑Wed Sep 15, 2021 6:11 amBobcat4Ever wrote: ↑Wed Sep 15, 2021 3:08 amYes, we all should have seen the same streaming content.

Re: The Good, the Bad, the Ugly - Drake
SWX bought the rights to the games they broadcast. It would be foolish for them to grant ESPN the feed without compensation as it would compete with their broadcast. ESPN agreed to stream the productions that are generated by the schools themselves.
While registering my vehicles the assessor stated "I have had both Cat and Griz students and alums work for me and the Griz end up working under the direction of the Cats."

Sometimes the Rodeo Team is traveling or has an event and they are not available. My understanding is that whenever they are in Bozeman they are glad to do it and football is glad to have them.BigBruceBaker wrote: ↑Wed Sep 15, 2021 10:51 amIs there a reason we don't do this at every home game?

Hahaha that's a good one BBB. Actually I was pleasantly surprised that there were members of the rodeo team available to do the runout because they were in Cody WY this past weekend. They did really well at Cody and it's worth a look on their facebook page at this link.BigBruceBaker wrote: ↑Wed Sep 15, 2021 11:21 am....My enjoyment is worth more than the Rodeo team "traveling" to some sort of horse dance events.
