Troy Dannen?

[davecisar]

We only spent a couple of days in Rome. I would go back in a heartbeat. So much to see. Loved Sorrento. Florence was good. Our travel agent only whiffed on one restaurant.

Did Germany and Switzerland by car over 20 years ago. The touristy areas were pretty dirty in Germany and I didn’t obey the speed limits. Had rented a Lexus sedan and that thing would zip. The Autoban was a hoot. We would be going 120 mph or190 km/hr and I would see some large Mercedes or BMW in my mirror gaining on me like I was pedaling a bike. Headlights flashing alternatively.

Real interesting seeing how others act over there. Did eurrail pass and stayed a week in Rome and Florence Took overnight train from Florence to Munich- got to Munich at 5 am. No cars anywhere near the station and red light. I jaywalked the red light and about 20 Germans looked at me like I had 3 heads. They were waiting for green to walk?? The day before no one cared one iota about traffic lights- total chaos.

Germans are known to be strict rule followers

So under this scheme someone who has had the tickets since the 1950s, but has never donated including this year is way low on the pecking order since the only thing they have going for them is a returning season ticket holder? If that is the way volleyball was done weren't some of the long time ticket holders very upset?

That scenario would be really rare. To transfer those older seats you have to "donate".

I think the whole thing is crazy and will probably lead to the AD who does it getting fired, but what do I know. There is no point in me moving. If I want to watch games in some random seat, I'll just take the money saved from not buying season tickets and "donating" and buy a couple games I truly want. Seems like there is never enough money for a 7 win program.

Yes it’s the way it should have been done. Unless someone can tell me why they are into having a socialist type program instead of a free market where those with the means can access better seats currently occupied by those that do nothing but complain, and never ever donate

Those "socialists" have been pouring millions into the program for decades. Before we were ever good, after we were good, and after we got bad. The mandatory donation for transferring tickets went into place in the early 2000's? Only people I know who don’t "donate" are people who just took less desirable tickets. Anyone with decent seats donates for them.

Can't wait to see what the AD does with all this extra money. Maybe we'll use the proceeds to buy an 8th win.

By now everyone donates for seating unless you have seats in the nose bleed section since the early 1960’s you donating depending on where you seat.

The question is how they reseat seats in the North and West sections of the stadium.

 

[dinglefritz]

You responded so you obviously care. Put me on ignore.

He needs to stay longer at waving practice on his teams sight.

Several posters don’t want to read my posts and yet they continue to reply. Weird. There’s an ignore function. Use it and you’ll never see my posts.

The main question should be what will they do with this extra revenue that they think will materialize. They haven't shown wise spending so far. I'm leery they will start.

They already have alcohol revenue. Event revenue. They can't sell out as it is. Does selling 50,000 tickets to a UND type game but getting a few more $1,500/seat donations actually lead to more revenue?

And not be able to constantly see you blather on non-stop about yourself, and lose access to all the wonderful insight and wisdom? Not a chance.

Yeah, lots of people don’t want to read your posts, and even though your posts are regularly scrolled over, it is apparent that your infatuation with you is off the charts. Your response is “lots of people say they don’t care, but they respond, so they must [I knew it, I am the most awesome of all the awesome!].” Instead of saying “put me on ignore,” maybe you should reconsider, just for a second, dialing it down a bit. You need to hear this. Try taking some advice, possibly for the first time in your life. Could do you, and everyone within 100 miles of where you live, some good.

So put me on ignore. It’s easy. I respond to individual posters about things they post. It’s called SOCIAL media. Maybe SOCIAL media isn’t for you. I’ve been on this board for 18 years. There are posters on here I’ve interacted with for most of those years even though I’ve never met them in person.

Yep same here. I used to be in South end zone when Trev started the remodel talk I went to West club . I totally get the South end zone redo . But why can’t they do what they did in the north add some concourses for Restrooms and concessions. Yep football is not on the level of Volleyball anymore he has to be real careful.

I guess we shall see- my seats since 1970 gave up this year. No regrets

They released a 20 min video discussing the rebuild
