    Getting to know New Hampshire

    Just a little FYI for Panther fans out there. Durham, New Hampshire, home of the University of New Hampshire Wildcats is about 20 miles from the Atlantic Ocean, 65 miles from Boston, about 275 miles from downtown New York City and just about 1337 miles from campus in Cedar Falls, Iowa.

    Currently, according to weather.com, the temperature is a balmy 55 degrees and they are expecting rain tomorrow and a rain and snow mix by Friday. Saturday, the predicted high is 36 degrees and is supposed to be partly cloudy with no precipitation. Friday and Sunday have predicted highs in the low 40's, so let's hope they are a day off on the 30's and it's a fairly nice day in the 40's.

    It's going to be fun watching a game at 10:00 AM here in Iowa Football can't start too early on Saturday mornings!!!

      Let's hope for good weather out there Friday and Saturday. As I recall from the trip in 2003, we couldn't practice at the field before the game because of snow then had a hard time even getting to the stadium. As I recall the team spent a lot of time waiting for buses...

        I think that's why it's such a good idea to get out there Thursday evening. Give them a day or so to get acclimated to the area and have a place to rest.

        Nutrition and rest this week boys!!! Drink plenty of water and eat that energy food! GET PLENTY OF SLEEP TODAY, TOMORROW and THURSDAY. Sleep leading up to a game is so important for focus.

            "...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."

              UNH Fan Guide

              I found some intesting reading on the UNH Football website concerning gameday policies. https://www.unhwildcats.com/football...fanguide.shtml

              Okay, we think tailgating at UNI is restrictive, check this out. Tailgate areas open 2 hours before gametime and you must have confirmation of a ticket before you can enter the tailgate areas. I assume this means you have to show your tickets before you can tailgate. Alcohol consumption is limited to 2 lots, one of which is the VIP lot. No drinking is allowed 1/2 hour after kick-off. And woe to the fan who arrives at the game without a ticket!

                Big Cats are you making this up? I suppose that would explain the high school looking stadium and attendance.....

                  Wow. I wonder though if the alcohol consumption is an NCAA restriction after kickoff. You might have noticed that no alcohol was served before or at half time for the athletic club.

                    Yeah since they're used to only dealing with 4-5,000 fans at a game and you can't buy tickets at the main ticket office on gameday (Only Willcall) the ticket runners probably aren't too busy on a regular game day. Seems like they want to discouage walk up sales on the day of the game.
