Cratter

Bubba very pissed at the end of the game during handshakes. Got in the face of Suu players.

10,500 The great cratter was wrong.

The great BU vs a team that just lost to a crappy big ten school?! 4-1 DU

One is reminded of how NY tried (or did) ban "large" drinks. (One can just buy two...costing the consumer more money). Sugar/Soft Drinks is definately on the radar as the next money grab for governments. Which reminds one of this famous quote: First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

It'll be interesting to see if the tobacco* sales tax increase will pass in North Dakota. *also taxes "ejuice." If it passes could see more people switching to vaping. As a pack a day smoker would be saving about $175 on average every month.

Was surprised to see GF has three vape shops. Found out my buddy is trying to quit tobacco using an ecig also. Gave him a bunch of flavors I had laying around, as one is more likely to quit when they find a flavor they enjoy. Any who, for anyone interested the Right to Vape Tour will be in Fargo today at 5.

The Thompson exit off the Interstate to the west, seems like there's always a vehicle or two parked on the north. At first one would assume it's farmers, then I thought fishing, but my final guess is carpoolers (American crystal by Hillsboro or the up north one)?

Today I learned about "Sovereign Citizens"....."sovereign citizens fail" on YT is a fun watch.

Somewhere I think there's a formula out there as a predictor... Last year's record added to this year's record, divided by last year's homecomin attendance, add or subtract temperature differential, times 1.03 if hockey is in town minus 3 percent if beeting off.

Think I been to a new one of those in the cities few years ago (was it Eagan?)...basically like a "mall" but the walkways are outside (no vehicle traffic)...iirc was a parking ramp across the street.

I just wonder what it'll be like down the road when there's comes another budget crisis (or say FCOA amount increases), but the low hanging fruit of cutting sports has already been picked. UND already needs a half billion dollars in maintenance costs it doesn't have!

10-52 UND

So which sports got the most chairs to turn around? And who got the least?

Everyone get your bets in. "All ss'ers please head to the south beer stand now to pay up/collect winnings." Actually doesn't sound like a bad idea.

If a company is going to layoff an employee or two to cut costs, they don't ask a few of them to make a live presentation in front of the company why they should keep them? Doesnt "upper management" already know which employees/departments are the most/least valuable? And if they dont, they have a discussion amongst themselves...and if they have a question they don't know the answer to....they ask someone who'd know?

Homecoming really doesn't mean much in 2016. Last year's homecoming had 9,188. Based on that I'd give a little bump for playing being pretty good lately. Last year there was also a lot of excitement too with its first ever win against a FBS. The last UND home game had 10,097. I'd be pretty comfortable saying there will be less than that. Hope I'm wrong. (If I had to actually guess a wager amount it would be about 9,800 + - 100).

Well glad I moved when I did. That's a crazy amount of time. Yeah at first I wasn't worried as you said there use to be people directing one lane at a time to go and taking turns but after awhile it became apparent that wasn't the case. Normally I don't have trouble as I park in the south "overflow lot" but I arrived late and was directed to closer champions club spots that weren't taken. And normally a decent part of the crowd leaves a few minutes early but the game was down to the wire so most people stayed put.

Kmart in Moorhead is closing it's doors (appears GF Kmart survived for now. I don't see Sears in the Columbia mall going anywhere or closing anytime soon) Having a local Church in Hope own the mall is probably a bonus (there's a free wifi sitting area where the rock wall was that is pretty nice with new carpet, tables, chairs, fireplace, coffee machine) but no doubt malls are closing all over the country (I enjoyed watching some abandoned malls on youtube. Check out the akron ohio mall).

Got stick in some of the worse out of the Alerus Traffic I had been in for a football game, after 10 minutes of not moving I bolted over to the west side lanes and was out in no time (and the more eastern lanes had to sit and wait til all those lanes emptied) I thought they had people rotating lanes in and out but didn't appear to have any that game.

Lol. Womens favorite line.

I noticed there's construction being done on the old hardees/Dickies building. Any clue what's going in there? Had to get my vehicle tags renewed which led me to the Grand Cities Mall, sad to see the rock wall is no longer there...and it's surprising a business like Christian Bookstore in that mall can survive 30+ years (along with the vacuum/shoe repair stores).

In this case they clearly got it wrong or there was miscommunication....every game usually has less and less people as the season goes on so I'm going to guess 9,600.

You need new sources.

Manitoba game day thread bottom page 5 someone posted the display with the 2016 trophy in it, but the actual "2016" on the wall had not been updated yet in that picture.

I looked for it after the Poly game, but I see now you guys bolted over to the hockey game.
