That wasnt a football game that was an entertainment extravaganza.

There was something going on every minute of the day plus during the timeouts of the game

Really liked the ability to move around the stadium (came in hand with the sun being on the vistor side)

Gotta do something about having the paid parking people coming in same gate as Paladin Club parking. Taking up money has the traffic backed up Duncan Chapel Rd onto Old Buncombe.

Loving all the new things, though.

Beer sales seem to be causing big problems at some stadiums, but it’s good to see that Furman people can drink a few beers and still control the urge to throw trash and golf balls.

Saw many with no pass or either the $10 purchased parking ticket. Wonder if they are getting there early before lot opens or the parking perps are not doing there job? Still its good to see all the lots full an hour before game time,

OK, if you can nail your target using a wedge, that’s a feat of skill. Way more classy than just slinging the ball.

I agree. I hope for the day in which I have to wait in a long line on any road getting on to the campus to watch the Paladins play. I hope for the day in which a parking space comes at a premium. Go Paladins!

C’mon man, it’s Furman, right?

FUBeAR didn’t sit next to Brad Faxon in Econ cuz I wanted to copy off his amazing Supply & Demand graphs. Well…actually did that too, but made him give me a golf tip every day or took his lunch money. Those lessons have stayed learnt.

Thinkin’ I’ll line up 6 balls & rapid-fire-like nail #1, #4, #8, #9, #31…and ‘pretend shank’ the last one, line driving it into their sidelines for the HC. He’s a UTenn Alum, so he’ll appreciate the effort…and accuracy.

With 10-12K fans watching, you might not need to "pretend" shank. The real thing would be a good possibility.

Yep. Thankfully there was space in the Blue Lot. The parking situation is a giant mess this year.

Yes, ain’t it great!! 😀 I used to wheel in at 20 minutes before kickoff and have my choice of parking. Now I have to get there over an hour before kickoff just to find a space. Love it!

It has been a while since I attended a game. Every thing was positive before, during, and after the game.
