The way I read it... this is a final practice.
Maybe I'm wrong.

No reason we can't all just stand for the spring game like we stand at the real games.

Go Ponies!

From the description in the Morning News, this is not a game, but just a practice that is open to the public.

I would assume there will be no food, beverages, beer, merchandise, bounce houses, posters, programs etc.

Would be nice if the SID would release exactly what to expect.
Probaly won't happen...BUT...maybe it will!!

Well, if there is Metroplex TV news coverage it won't show empty seats at Ford.

Surely the athletic department can run off copies of the spring practice roster currently seen on the smumustangs website and hand them out to the faithful even if there are no concessions.

That website is still calling it a "game" by the way.

OTOH, any long suffering ponyfan might carry a copy of the roster made at home although you might wonder about walk-ons.

I honestly think SMU would prefer nobody actually goes. Kind of sad.

A current roster, with updated weights... is too much to ask for.
