Lowest price is $157 and resale price is $566. Last year, the Alabama Georgia game had an average resale price of $2,969. Just sayin’..... Just think what they’d be if it was at the Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta or Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte. 1 Quote

Irish Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 What's needed at the Alerus - simple - A team that shows up for big games and a coaching staff that puts that team in a position to win. I am usually fairly immune to the Bison hoopla about going to Texas and can view the game with mild interest. However, with both WDAZ(Y) and the Heraldo now paying homage to their Fargo overlords, this year I just can't stand to hear any more media hype. If I have to hear that lickspittle Dom Izzo one more time I may lose my lunch. So please Bubba - get your act together and give us something to cheer about - and right soon. Many of us are very frustrated, not just with Bison success but with our lack of it. 1 2 Quote
Mama Sue Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 Well you are right in about the Forum Jr (Herald)....in defense of the quality reporting done by the GF spirts writers... it seems to be corporate DNA not local Quote

It just seems with Fargo calling the shots all we see every WDAY broadcast is an update on the Bison and now the Heraldo can't even make the deadline for Sioux Hockey. And I have previously mentioned my opinion of that toady git Dom Izzo - he seems to be on every broadcast. Time we get some recognition for our programs and we'll have to do it on the field (or ice). This week's hype just emphasizes in my mind how much we need Football to get going. 2 Quote
Mama Sue Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 Me too.... it is not the GF staff but corporate. There is a community where the paper is owned by the Forum. There are clearly favorites.... one city sends a high school team to state and there is nothing in the paper. Other schools get colored photos, top part of the sports section. It is a Forum DNA not local. But we could start a whole new topic of media issues today and throw in politics and regulatory issues..... radio seems to be more dependable, IMHO. 1 Quote

Looks good They're replacing 6 year old turf? There have been discussions on how they are approaching it in the future, but I haven't seen anything concrete in the capital budgets for UND or the Alerus Center so I think you're a little ahead of yourself on this one.

Maybe they will replace more than the Big Sky logos. Could we see a Hawk on the 50 or the words Fighting Hawks in the end zones? Quote

Siouxperfan7 Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 Apparently what is most needed at the Alerus is “Caution wet floor” signs!!! https://www.inforum.com/news/crime-and-courts/1340110-Man-files-lawsuit-after-he-slipped-fell-at-UND-football-game 1 Quote

Mama Sue Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 Just a sign of the times....not an employee washing a floor ( there is always a sign it seems)... just someone walking with an unknown liquid spilled on the floor... loss of wages and pain are both a given in any law suit...city has deep pockets maybe someone can volunteer to be floor monitors in a facility that is how many SF??? Good job for the GOBC Quote
UNDBIZ Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 Tough to say how long the spill was left unattended/unnoticed, but for $50k I'd guess the city settles before racking up court costs. 1 Quote

Most career criminals and deadbeats are aware of this, but most 'Slip' in parking lots on ice in the winter. This guy is an innovator, opening the market to slipping year round. 2 Quote

If you feel unsafe go back to your house and drink a beer by yourself. 2 Quote
