Dear Mr. Man-

You know who you are. You are the elderly gentleman who stands outside the Paul B. Lloyd center before every game and asks for extra tickets.

However, you never want to pay for them. You want them given to you.

You were in the same spot at the Texas State, TCU, Tulsa, and tonight, the Houston game.

According to you, you are trying to get you grandson into the game.

Unfortunately, I helped you out once, as I had an extra ticket. I didn't necessarily want to sell you a ticket; I wanted an SMU fan to see the game.

However, your schtick has not ended. I looked it up, and you can get an endzone seat for $14. Is that too much for you? Was the line at the ticket counter too long?

I don't think so. I walked over to the ticket counter after I saw you, and the line wasn't more than 5 people deep. Yet, you want a ticket given too you.

I give money to the athletic department, general scholarship fund, the Mustang Club, and the Cox fund. I also pay for a spot on the Boulevard.

But you still can't find it in your wallet to pay $14 for a ticket for you grandson.

Please, do me a favor. Take off that SMU Alumni hat and hide your allegiance. You embarass me

Yours truly,

Come and Take It.

Me thinks Obama and Mitchell have a lot in common. Neither has any experience, the system is very complex and the results will be much the same. Maybe we should consider Red Shirting Obama till the next election.


Well our current/experienced president GWB has horrible results so Obama can't do any worse.

By the way is Palin the first Republican in history to send "shout outs" on national tv during a debate?

She has Jeff Foxworthy written across her forehead.(Note: They don't allow trailers on the lawn at the white house, so Sarah wouldn't fit in)

Saw you give away a ticket last night to some student or someone. I was about 10 ft. behind and let me tell you, the guy was very happy to get it. Nice job. (seriously)

I have had 2 season tickets to SMU basketball for 7 years. As I live in Austin I can't make it to games. Is it possible to give them away, free of course, to someone that will use them? Terry Hemme told me they are great seats and to keep them. Yes, I have never seen where my seats are.

Thanks, 88. I had about 16 'extra' tickets last night. Made sure they got into the hands of Mustang supporters! I usually distribute them at the Special Delivery tent.

We are always trying to get people to the games, Mustang1965 provided some extras last night, and they were used by people that wouldn't have gone other wise. PM me if you want, and we will try and get someone in those empty seats!
