I've heard about cell phone issues but little else. In the old days it seems like there were about 10 game-day issues. I think they much better than previous regimes. Oh I forgot-no corndogs

They went to a smaller size bag of peanut m&ms. $3 still.

I think the Aggies bought all the corn dogs to take home to their ladies.

VERY poor decision on someone's part. Will just stop at Kroger or Tom Thumb on the way instead and spend less than that on a bag three times the size - the one they used to sell at the stadium, which I was actually willing to pay for. Not any more.
Don't worry. Be Happy. Or not.

My cellphone worked fine. If you honestly want some more M&M's, come to our tailgate and I'll give a bag. Or a dollar if you're that upset. Let's find bigger things to complain about...

the things people choose to [deleted] about never ceases to amaze me. Your lives must be really awesome if the M&M bag is really a big bummer for you. Might be time to stop eating candy anyway - assuming you are over 12.

Hey, m&m's are free range, grass fed, GMO and gluten free, and 100% paleo. Health food

Overall presentation is better.

Speakers. Are. Too. Loud.

Let the M-Band play more, and limit the piped-in music.

This was probably Hershey's move. Cocoa prices have skyrocketed and HSY took a large price increase earlier in the year. A weight-out with no price change is a key way to do it. So, HSY reduced the size of their foodservice bag and SMU could either charge less at retail or move up to a bigger bag and charge $4 or so to keep the same profit dollars.

As long as the Lemon Chill is still $4.00, I'm good.

All in all give it a B

Cell phone/WIFI still is terrible...Have ATT/Iphone 5 and had no service for the whole game...
Unreal this is still a problem.

Speakers are way too loud..cant even talk when music is playing which is most of the time.
Sure the music needs to be loud, but seriously its way too much.
