Student Section

[Bulldog from Birth]

I have always been an advocate of the students getting good seats like they have. But week after week this is embarassing. The section should be cut into 1/3 of what it is down low, the rest of those tickets be sold for big $, and the students thrown up into the Upper Deck. Pathetic. Week after week.

 

[natchezdawg]

I agree. Just cut the student ticket allotment. Cut it in half.

Beginning of the 4th

 

[FlotownDawg]

Wow, that's bad. But it's not just an MSU problem. It's a problem nationwide. Wall Street Journal article couple weeks ago about how all across the country students are not selling out sections and leaving early. Georgia recently cut it's student ticket allotment and gave it to young alumni. Sounds like a good idea for MSU to do as well.

Beginning of the 4th

that is effing awful. You live in STARKVILLE. It is a night game. The bars close in 1 hour (by the time you get there). Yall are a ******* joke.

 

[thatsbaseball]

You at the game bro ?

 

[Bulldog from Birth]

No.

nm

 

[thatsbaseball]

Then STFU

 

[Bulldog from Birth]

I believe I'll keep talking thanks very much

In 8 years in Starkville, I never missed one SNAP of a home football game. Currently, I live 5 hours away from Starkville. And my wife's due date is TODAY. I believe I'll keep talking, unless it's about a medical assessment of Texas A&M quarterbacks.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

Perhaps you might want to take your own advice.

 

[Wicked Pissah]

students live within a 5 min walk of stadium.

some alumni live 400 plus miles from stadium.

I am and have seasons ticket so I can say cut the student allotment down so I can get out off the SkyDeck

 

[WayboDawg]

I agree. Just cut the student ticket allotment. Cut it in half.

Cut tuition if you are gonna go that far. For everything I paid to go to school at State, I know I would have been mad as heck to be a student and not have access to tickets in the lower bowl. It is what it is guys. Our team sucks, and this was supposed to be a poo poo game from the time they scheduled it. What do you really expect? I'd rather listen to this garbage of a game on the radio too if I was one of them.

 

[thatsbaseball]

Why in the world would some dickhead sitting at a computer at home during a game have the right to criticize the students for doing any damn thing they want to do ? That wouldn`t have made sense to me when I was in school and doesn`t now.

 

[BobbyPetrinoFanClub]

Who wants to watch less than mediocre football?

 

[Wicked Pissah]

dickheads that buy season tickets and make sure that people are sitting there (when they miss the 1 game a year and it is a 1000 round trip, but still make omaha and houston), can say wtf we want. if you are a student (kid) and cant wait to get back to the frat house to drink jack and listen to SUPER T for 30 mins, you can GFYS. Seriously. You are a *****. Starkville sucks and there is nothing to do on a Sat night but go to the game.

 

[Bulldog from Birth]

The students can do whatever they want. I just think if they continue to no-show for games and have half the section emtpy, then those tickets should be reallocated so that they are used and the university is financially compensated. We've got prime seats sitting empty game after game.

 

[CagerMania]

AMEN!!!

Move them up top. This is NOT an issue to this extent elsewhere. Our students can do as they please, but they don't deserve great tix at a discount. They leave when we're winning a blowout. They leave in a close game. They certainly leave when we're losing. 17 them.

 

[ArcherSPS]

It's homecoming many people left because they didn't want to sit through our ******** halftime festivities

 

[weblow]

I am and have seasons ticket so I can say cut the student allotment down so I can get out off the SkyDeck

We keep playing this ****** *** football and I have a feeling you may be able to move down without them even messing with the student allotment.

 

[deadheaddawg]

Why in the world would some dickhead sitting at a computer at home during a game have the right to criticize the students for doing any damn thing they want to do ? That wouldn`t have made sense to me when I was in school and doesn`t now.

I have 10 season tickets and have been to 95% of the home games since 1977. I just left the game and I say cut the student allotment in half. Stick them in the upper deck. They don't give a ****, so they shouldn't care. I realize it happens at all schools, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't do something about OUR situation.

 

[Shamoan]

the student section is a total embarrassment. something is going to have to change. no excuse for that ****.

 

[Wicked Pissah]

deadheaddawg plus 1. You have awful taste in music but I hear you cluckin' chickin'.....when it comes to football attendance.

 

[Heawww]

He's right. If you don't go to games then you can't ***** about people who do (even if they leave early).

 

[thatsbaseball]

Haven`t you heard ? It`s the students leaving early that makes us a ****** team and its the city of Starkville`s fault we can`t recruit and the dog ate Dan`s gameplan and and and

 

[CagerMania]

Riiiiiiight. And Alcorn was homecoming? And LSU for goodness sake? What was the excuse then?

 

[MSUCowbell]

What's stopping people seated in the upper deck from moving down to the student section at half time?

 

[Dr. Funke.sixpack]

If I can make a home game coming from the middle east in the middle of a year long stay, then those pussies can stay an extra half for a game in question.


sooooo fuuuuuck you

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

I have season tickets and go to as many games as possible. Got a lot going on this year that's kept me from going. I can complain if I want to.

 

[Son_of_34]

...Well

If your current bulldog club donation is not 3,386
or above for the current year then shut the 17
up, or better yet email the current athletic director [email protected] or even better give him a call at 662-325-0863 and voice your opinions about adjusting the student section so he can personally tell you to go 17 yourselves.

 

[guydawg]

MSU, along with at least all of the other SEC schools, will find the...

Problem with student attendance fixed when the SEC/ MSU allows the purchase & consumption of alcohol at all games.

Also, won't the students be relegated to the end zone beginning next season?

 

[Dr. Funke.sixpack]

********

 

[Heawww]

Sure you can. But you look like a douche. Why would you complain anyway? "I'm not at the game, but so and so should be!" See how stupid that sounds?

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

Hey STFU...

What's that Ole Miss student section look like on television right now?

Or the Penn State student section earlier tonight.

Justify however you want but to tell someone they can't point out how 17ing pitiful it is too see that many empty seats at the game in the student section because they were not at the game is pathetic and stupid and does not excuse the students in any way.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

I really don't care if you think I look like a douche or not.

 

[Heawww]

Pride, eh? Yeah OK, keep your 6pack cred, but my advice to you is still the same. No big deal.

 

[jakldawg]

The legal ability to pay $7 for 16 oz. of stale Bud Light should NOT be the breaking point for involved students.
They highlighted the empty sections of the LSU student section during today's Florida game, but that's the risk you take when you buy your student tickets before your parole hearing.
And I'm assuming that most of the "new" seating will be the student section.

 

[WayboDawg]

For all you guys complaining about the students not showing up, I know some season ticket holders who have backed out of games this year too. Folks don't want to make the long drive to Starkville, fight traffic, pay for parking, and burn an entire day to see the team play like crap. I'm sure there were more than a few ticket holders who were dove hunting today instead of at the game. Can't blame em.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

+1 for me in my 6pack cred. Whatever that means.

 

[thatsbaseball]

So if the students say you`re a ***** for only making 1 game a year what`s your answer. I mean you don`t come in a rickshaw do you ? Or perhaps you`ve just forgotten that there are a few freedoms left in this country and leaving a ****** football game is one of them.
