Not a bad review but nothing in there proves they were actually onsite vs just finding info on the Internet and rewriting it. 

AI write up in my mind.  Did they miss $70 single game for NDSU game?

Yeah I highly doubt anyone was there recently.  Stadium Journey went to crap once it was bought out by a larger company a few years ago.  Also: "The seating bowl area is a testament to the great history of North Dakota football, as banners above it salute the 26 championship seasons the team has enjoyed. "

Yeah I don’t think they were onsite or they would have had photos or more details

We had to get rid of flickertails.  That was a big number.

I always thought in Nort Dakota the verse went "Valking in a Vinter Vonderland".

There were several Norwegian names offered, but a consulting company from the East Coast could not see the connection. Berserkers was my favorite.

So….this week I had a call from a 701 number that I missed. I returned the call and it was the UND ticket office surveying former season ticket holders. We had a VERY nice 20 to 30 minute talk about football, promotions, the game “experience,” and how FB can connect with the extended community. So, yes UND is seeking input! And they didn’t ask for a donation…just getting input.

[SIOUXFAN97]

the alerus had two windows in the main entrance for will call and whatever......and two windows for general admission......and about 5 closed windows but they had about 6 employees standing around the area with the metal detectors....took about 15 minutes to buy my tix (not bad time but still not great)

and still with 6 employees watching for bad guys i walked over to the the black rope thingy by the atm and pulled it back 2 feet and slipped right thru and had my tix scanned in about 90 seconds...

It was great to see the players coming out with all those North Dakota flags. #flagshipU

New green jerseys

Game experience was markedly better - music was loud but not too loud and the selection seemed to get the crowd into it.  Halftime was great.  I talked to a few friends after last week and all said the blaring music last week was very annoying.  Nice to see some adjustments.  A great game experience yesterday.

Good atmosphere yesterday. They figured out the issue with the stats and that was on the big board as well.

I may have changed my tune a bit on the songs between plays, there were a big group of kids behind me that sang every song word for word. Kept them into the game and having fun.

I still think the intro needs some work. We need an entrance song and it needs to cut to the doors of the locker room opening and Bubba leading the guys out. Hate to say it, but NDSU does this perfectly.

You would think on of the players or students coulD be given the reins to create a better intro. These young guys are really creative and I have no doubt they could create something good. We need our own enter sandman!

I completely agree with you. UND is aware. It’s been communicated to them. Up to them now to show the effort/innovation and get it done.

IMO helmet would be pointless. It’s about building suspense via timing and music as the team comes out to the field; the helmet is not a major part of that. 

[SIOUXFAN97]

wouldn't be against the team starting their "entrance" as far into the alerus conference center as possible....passing the restaurants, the main front desk, down the corridor to the ticket area and then enter thru the southeast area

high fiving everyone on the way...
