Conference Rings are pretty common. Gonna be a lot of rings to be handed out this year.....

Considering this will be our first year in the MVFC, another cupcake home game wouldn't be a bad thing. I doubt UND is going to want to schedule Eastern Washington or Montana given our new brutal conference schedule. Especially the first year in the new conference.

Tuch and Haula to Vegas in exchange for Vegas not taking Dumba, Scandella, or Staal!! http://www.startribune.com/wild-s-erik-haula-alex-tuch-bound-for-vegas-by-day-s-end/429898333/

Neither are his fault. Not sure how you can put Drick deciding to transfer and Geno getting a DUI on Jones.

There is a reason that people with large setups like having a reserves spot(s) tailgating. They don't have to worry about finding a 6 spot space for their rig. Those people that have those large setups are there every week and are not the ones that are creating large gaps in the tailgate lots. Those people are the ones with 1 or 2 spots in the back half of the tailgate lot that may or may not show. I say they issue reserved tailgate spots to those want to reserve 3 or more spots together. That way they don't have to worry about making sure they have enough space for their setup. You can still sell season tailgating passes to those with 1 or 2 spots. Those people would get a pass they can show every week and their spaces are first come first serve. This ensures the big rigs and large setup tailgaters have their spot each week, and it eliminates open areas for season tailgate owners when they are not there. *Bonus idea - eliminate the "Student tailgate lot" and mix them in with the rest of the tailgaters.

Wait...I thought everyone used it during their lunch hour?!!

There will probably be more people voting to keep Arbor Park than have actually been there in the last year!! When the NO overwhelmingly passes tomorrow, The handful of people who supported it will find some other cause they can "fight" for.

Bison home games have always been at 2:30 (except for the homecoming game which is at 1:00). That time is pretty ideal. Especially for fans traveling from out of town. Not sure about what can be done about changing that the next 3 seasons we have in the Big Sky, but definitely something that needs to be looked at moving forward in the Valley. In regards to other changes, you don't have to look too far to see what seems to work. NDSU has one of the best gameday experiences in the FCS. Look at what they do and try to do that. Obviously won't be the same, but worth a try.

The only arguments I have heard to save Arbor Park are "We need more green space downtown" and "it's an homage to the Flood of 97.". Sorry, those are dumb reasons to not develop the area. You want "green space" and a monumnet to the Flood of 97, walk 2 blocks east and you can see both!!

Feelings and emotion. Don't you know that trumps facts now days?!!

McGregor thinks he can out box one of the best fighters in the history of the sport?!! Sorry, Conor, not gonna happen!

I think more people have been to a UND Womens hockey game in the last year than have been to Arbor Park. (Too soon?)

Friends of mine that opened a few years back. They are great!! http://renewedhopechiropractic.com/

Or just a friendly reminder that it's been 5 years since the name has been retired and maybe it's time to move on! Threads about the nickname being retired aren't dividing the fanbase. It's the "Siouxforever" crowd that is hurting the fanbase. If that is "stiring the pot" and you are offended by being blamed for the division, maybe you should do something about it!!

Arbor Park is not a park. It is a vacant lot where there is a cute little archway , a couple paths, and trees and bushes were planted in the interim before a business came in to develop there. Are people actually going there to spend time and hangout? Besides the occasional photo engagement photo and Senior picture photo sessions that take place there, how much is it actually used? The city needs to encourage downtown development. There is plenty of green space near downtown. This half block of "park" being gone is not going to take away from that.

Purpose of the thread was to reflect on a point in UND history and reflect on what has transpired since. The division of some fans is always going to be there whether a thread on a fan website was started or not.

If your favorite beer has the words light, draft, or ice in the name, you're doing it wrong!!

That's because more and more people are realizing what good beer is supposed to taste like.

It was 5 years ago today that North Dakotans went to the polls to vote to retire the Fighting Sioux Nickname. A very difficult vote for many people. In hindsight, I still believe it was the right decision. A lot has happened since Measure 4 passed and UND retired the Fighting Sioux name and logo. We have a new nickname and logo, merchandise is for sale at stores, teams have won conference and National Championships under the new name. June 12th, 2012 was a tough day for all UND fans. But 4 years later, I think that the right decision was made and the University is better off for citizens understanding the consequences and making the right decision.
