    Re: Embarassing

    Maybe I missed it, but nobody has commented on the fact that fans weren't allowed to leave the UNI-Dome at halftime . . . supposedly a new NCAA rule?

      Every stadium i've been to has implemented that rule within the last few years. No re-admittance, period. I think its due to drinking, and/or bringing multiple stubs out with you to sneak people back in.

        I was at every game home and away this year and don't remember anyone enforcing these kind of rules. It may have been a playoff rule.

        The people working the doors were very rude. One of them was standing off to the side and we hadn't heard anything about these new rules, when my wife went to walk out, one of the women very rudely said, "If you're leaving you aren't coming back, do you wanna go home?" Reading the words it doesn't come across that bad, but the woman was a grade A witch about it. Couldn't you just say, "I'm sorry, there is no readmittance today due to NCAA rules."?

          As for the no drinking part, the NCAA has made an amendment for the 2011 playoffs known as "The Panther Clause." By definition, a fan can leave the stadium to drink when said fan's team is stinking up the field on offense and proves time and again that it's unwilling to make adjustments and the only way he/she can bear to continue watching the horror unfold is with the aid of a few beverages.

            Well that's good news i'll have to pass around. I really thought it was policy they didn't allow readmittance. We had a group that graduated together, we all got back together for homecoming every year, and not being able to leave for drinks at halftime was one of the big reasons it fell apart.

              Re: Embarassing

              hadn't bothered reading this thread last week, but got around to reading it now.

              I'm sorry, but if your football team can't win a HOME playoff game just because it started at noon instead of 4 pm, then they don't deserve to advance in the playoffs anyway.

              And the crowd wouldn't have been much better at 4 pm than it was at noon.

                Yeah, this was only for the playoffs. Evidently the NCAA mandates for playoff games but does not for regular season (thank goodness). FWIW, you cannot re-enter an Iowa game, but you can at Iowa State.

                  I was quite tempted myself to go out and get hammered at the ISU game.
                  But I was driving home, and I'm not a frickin moron who drives under the influence.

                    I figured there was no need to start a new thread tonight after the Iowa game when we can just add to this one...

                    "White Castle?" "more like Black Castle..."
