The best tradition, of course, would be success on the field.

"First and foremost," assistant AD Mike Wolf said, "we have to win."

What is ironic is that they were almost, if not, selling out when they had the nation's longest losing streak. My parents would attend the games and said there were always large crowds and it was a hard ticket to get.

also sounds familiar....the fan experience needs to be hassle free. Could you imagine if TCU was your first game at Ford? wow

"It can't be a hassle to get a ticket," Phillips said. "It can't be difficult to park. And we can't run out of hot dogs in the second quarter."

i like the free beer idea!
