Thursday night games!

<< < (2/2)

IAA Fan:
Great points ET and Chief. As a reminder, everyone should read their tailgate pass for the start times. They put signs up and ask students and faculty to leave the lots by that time, but it is not practical for many of the kids and I completely understand. Also, they really have cut back on faculty lots over the last 10-20 years...so I have learned to be more forgiving. It is only one game, we can tighten up our belts just a bit.

Glad you mean that figuratively and not literally, as my belt doesn't tighten quite as easily as it used to!

As a faculty member, I avoided parking at the tailgate lots during the game day.

Actually, it only impacts the weekday (Thursday) games. For Saturday games, they have the tailgate lots blocked off by noon on Fridays.

This year will be a mess. As of this morning, Lincoln Ave. is now closed to all traffic between 5th and Wick. Lincoln deck is only accessible through Arlington Street entrance/exit (not through Lincoln) and Wick deck is only accessible through Walnut Street entrance/exit (not through Wick).

The campus has also reduced number of parking spaces near the stadium. Coupled of the parking lots located at the Southwest side of the stadium (5th and Rayen) have been converted to student apartments.

I anticipate delays in and out of campus on the Thursday night game because of evening classes.

ysuguins4:
Not a big fan of the Thursday game, and would rather they not play them.  Over the past 9 seasons the Guins only played 1 Thursday game in 2013, and only drew 12,000.

YsuPride:
Not fan of Thursday night game.  No matter if we played it a few days later on Saturday we are up against Canfield fair.  So far not much marketing for the game.
