Ouch...would rather walk to tailgate and drink a couple at halftime.
If we do that, we can't get back in. :(
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

No doubt IPP's outrage at corn dogs appears misdirected. I assume the SID has zero input on corn dog logistics and/or distribution.

They charged imported price for domestic, did not have Miller lite and other alternatives, cc system only took visa/MC, half the stadium poured on cups the other half gave bottles...just give us the bottles, they ain't made of glass. Moody was better in the beer department and so was North Texas State.

There was at least one working water fountain because I filled my bottle three times. It's located next to the x04-x05 portal. Two fountains there, but only one worked. Water was cold. No line.

Everyone complained there was never alcohol served, I can't wait for one person to complain its not served quick enough/or at the proper temperature. Can we not enjoy the experience of a football game? (Outside of the obvious disaster that's our team) We have six weekends per year. Stop complaining and enjoy. I sat through numerous empty games during the early 2000s. What we have now is light-years better. I'm sorry you cant get a corndog, smuggle one in if its that important to you. Dickeys seems like a reasonable replacement.
great. Now I'll be accused of trying to smuggle in TWO corn dogs each week.

THIS^

gotta get that worked out for hoops. the supply chain couldn't keep up with the demand at Moody, lines that took entire halftime to get to front of the line is ridiculous.

my only MAJOR gripe about the concessions is the separation so you have to wait in 2 separate lines if you want nachos and a beer - and i'm sure it's for insurance reasons, or more likely, contractual separation between the existing company that we sub out the food concessions so that SMU captures all the alcohol sales.
Ok this is getting ridiculous...I agree with Dutch on THIS ONE POST by him totally
