It’s just a game… Hey.. when the kids are playing VB in the EDC tournament sometimes you have to travel in bad weather. The roads were not good today, but they werent all that bad as long as you werent going 70 mph. We "enjoyed" the 2nd half of the football game after VB was over. I agree with Oxbow.. would be more fun if they had a legit playoff chance. Quote

I get its a sign of solidarity, but clearly just virtue signaling. Especially considering less than 3% of vodka imported to the US is from Russia. And, Russia has already been paid for all the Russian vodka that is currently in the US. Just dumb. 1 2 Quote

Mama Sue Posted March 2, 2022 Posted March 2, 2022 So…to celebrate OR cry in your beer. Either way…. Good to go. I think I had a beer once when my husband was driving but I really did not know there was hard liquor! Quote
FSSD Posted March 2, 2022 Posted March 2, 2022 Years ago, a Poly fan who was sitting next to me was floored that the facility served drinks.. We had a great time at the game. Just like the Bison parents that sat next to me this year. We had a great time.. of course that last one could have been better IMO. Quote
Kab Posted March 7, 2022 Posted March 7, 2022 Gas coupons attendance from out of town fans will decrease because of gas prices. fans only have so much money to spend. Quote

nodak651 Posted March 7, 2022 Posted March 7, 2022 Found this pic which is interesting enough that I thought I'd share it. Looks like the South end zone would 100% work if an expansion were needed. That said, it looks like the roof did collapse without any support there so I don't know what, if anything, was changed to prevent the roof from failing again. Surprised I haven't ever seen anyone mention that the roof collapsed during construction. Quote

SIOUXFAN97 Posted March 7, 2022 Posted March 7, 2022 and a few windows facing the interstate....let there be light Quote
Kab Posted March 7, 2022 Posted March 7, 2022 With that large roof it makes sense to put solar on the whole roof. need to start seeing more solar in our part of the world Quote

Surprised I haven't ever seen anyone mention that the roof collapsed during construction. It was a big story back during construction, and the insurance/legal settlements dragged out for months after. It all played out in the pages of the Herald , KNOX-AM, KCNN, WDAZ News, Valley News and KX4– all of which had offices in Grand Forks at the time. Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted March 7, 2022 Posted March 7, 2022 and couldn't they have an outside area (with concessions in summer) that you access if you went up the west stairs by the interstate and had doors at the top of the stairs leading outside behind the und helmet with a nice view facing south? 1 Quote
