zero chance there was more than 20k. Good showing for SMU (considering....).

I might have accidentally counted some twice.

Excellent food choices in their stadium - especially under the "eagle wing" in the end zone

yeah I wanted a Brisket Slider but they kept pushing back time that it would be ready. They definitely blow SMU concessions menu out of the water

I had brisket sliders, chips, dip, a variety of drinks available, desserts, and comfortable seating at the House of Arkpony.

Agreed. Great food, beer, band and student turnout. The alumni/donor section was actually thin. I wasn't impressed with the stadium.

Should add this to "say something nice about our week 1 opponent."

I thought the everything at the stadium was great except we were in section 125 (moved up to the second section 225? for a better view). Could not see the big screen TV well from our section. I wish they had set it back about ten yards further. But that was minor. We were also thanked by a group of students for coming to the game. Very hospitable and friendly crowd.

My only true grips were the parking and information about parking was terrible. Ane will call was either REAL slow or late opening up. Our group was there in plenty of time, yet missed the start of the game.

I think its one of the easiest stadiums to park in if you get the directions from smumustangs.com. Direct exit off I-35, go under walking bridge and into Fouts Field Parking. I came about an 1 1/2 hours early but... it was a breeze both times its been at the new stadium

Well it took me 45 minutes to park with same instructions

No one with any dignity should wear that anyway.

Looking forward to a great game. Hopefully there's a taco truck nearby.

Agreed! Let's make pony fans great again by keeping it free from politics, a topic that makes me hate my alma mater.

Big play by your kid. Tell him he did good.

Thanks mrydel. Looked like he fought hard. Had to get an ivee for cramps but returned. Not much beats watching your son sing varsity with a smile on his face on the road.

Am I allowed to ask which one is your son?

Went up to Denton again last Saturday, and wore my SMU colors. The folks there were friendly, spirited and happy to see us. The SMU turnout was pretty solid - sold out the section plus some others scattered around.
