David Miller bought the shirts for the Louisville game that year so that the whole arena would get them.

I like the party atmosphere that they are planning for the area outside of Moody at 7:30 PM to get people there early.

Sounds like they will have tailgate-like setups with TVs and such, along with live music, food, etc.

If they had adult beverages there, it would be excellent, but my guess is that my group will have to go to Barley or Ozona for that...

Does sound like they will have a ton of things to do out there before the game but I had the same question...is there booze?

Unfortunately I am not expecting anything near this, those first few years in Moody had a different feel from the past few. I don't think that is a product of how kids become MOB members, I think it's more a reflection on the students that come to the games.

I think the kids have been poor, to ok, to good, but I don't think I would describe the past few years as great. Even Shake had to tell the students to get up and rally in the first game, which did have a good turn out as far as numbers goes. LB always commented on how the student/crowd often picked up the team, not the other way around.

I think the biggest difference has been leadership. The first few years Lobster Guy was a definite leader, he was leading them, they have missed that the past few years. The student that inherited the Lobster outfit was a disgrace, he seemed more interested in showing up late and making sure he had his beer in hand.

I am also not expecting the crowd to do a very good job with the white out, my wife included, I will be there with my Ben Moore #34 fresh white jersey on though!

Going to be a HUGE game, I think we could give the guys an advantage, they are going to need it against this team.

Cincy that same year was the loudest Moody has ever been.

I also remember those first few years, it seemed like every coach had to pull their bench onto the middle of the floor during time-outs, so they could hear. Would be nice if we welcomed our visitors from USC with that same warm atmosphere. :lol:

Stop being nostalgic for the good ole days of three years ago. The good ole days are still happening now. Enjoy the moment. It was certainly loud vs Cincy back in February.

Don't sit back and wait for the MOB to do your job for you. Stand up and get loud yourself, and encourage others to do the same.

Kind of funny that you mention how you don't think the crowd will do much with the white out and yet one of your attendees is part of the problem.
