YSU Penguin Athletics > YSU Penguin Athletics
First Home game against Butler High school and nobody cares!
YSUFANSINCE1990:
I know this has been talked about several times. But, playing two stiff teams is unacceptable. One is fine. But playing Butler and Valpo is like the Globetrotters against the Washington Nationals. We would beat these teams by double digits 100 times in a row. It is a joke to charge money for two of these games. Have some balls and go schedule JMU, Villanova, Richmond, etc... The crowd tomorrow will be very small.

Yes, the Globetrotters would beat the Nationals 99 out of 100 times; so are you taking the kids to see the Nationals, or the Globetrotters? Youngstown is the only town I have even been in where people look for excuses not to attend games and then justification for why they did not. You should be mad because the other side of Stambaugh is closed and we are going to run out of seats, as that is the ONLY way that consistent attendance will ever happen. No visiting opponent will EVER make that happen. That is unless you have a personal relationship with Urban Myer and we should expect the Buckeyes at some point. Heck even then, I am sure that some of the die-hard desperate will find an excuse not to go.
Do you know that U Delaware has average attendance of just over 18k per game? By my calculations that makes Bue hen Stadium the 4th-largest city in the entire state of Delaware for about 3-hours per Saturday and how many times have they been above .500 in the last 10-years?
Sunshine beginning at 8a, beer, food, a fly-over (so I have heard) and a mystery YSU team playing tomorrow. So show up and see if you like them. Go Guins!!

Where would you put portable bleachers ????
Band and student section should ALWAYS be on the home side.

Your right they probably should be on the West side but I get a lot of laughs watching the students taunt the visiting team during the game.
