  • Football 2015: Bring it on!

    Our season tickets arrived in the mail today. I'm ready to get this thing started. Bring on the Cylones and EWU Eagles.

      And UNItix can't slide the ISU tickets into the same envelope as the season tickets?

        Last I'd heard, Iowa State hadn't sent them up here yet.

          Was happy to see the tickets show up....was not happy to read the page with the new GameDay rules...people will not be admitted back into the dome once they leave?? There are a lot of people that leave during halftime to do whatever...assuming this will make a lot of people not happy...is that what they want? To me the security issue is BS....

            That's BS.

            They don't have enough facilities to make that work. You think the bathroom lines are ridiculous now? Add another 1000 people that usually go outside at halftime.

            This doesn't make a bit of sense. None.

              The problem with people leaving at half time is that a large number of them never came back in for the second half. Our second half attendance has been an issue ever since our tailgating game started growing.

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."

                  Not sure it completely solves problem of second half attendance though....if people are going to leave they will...now just no option of returning.....and I agree....good luck going to the bathroom...especially the ladies

                    I'm assuming they'll still have the McLeod open for bathrooms? If not then I'm officially ticked off. That's my go-to restroom for my kids, considering 5 year olds only announce their bathroom needs when it's become an emergency situation.

                      I blame the Panther Marching Band.

                        This does nothing to address that problem and probably makes it worse, especially with games that aren't close at halftime.

                          Fans could always wait til half-time to go to the game. Tailgate til the 2nd half begins...just a thought...

                            I know. I'm not sure there's a good answer here.

                              Yes, McLeod will be open for bathrooms and you'll probably see more men making use of the facilities there, in addition to the many women who have walked the short distance as well.

                              Is anyone aware of any other Division I program that allows people to leave the stadium at halftime and then return for the second half?
