Dang, Spring Game tickets selling fast.
- Thread starter stucknks
- Start date
8k in 2 weeks. Pack 70k in there for a practice. As AI said "We talkin 'bout practice!"
Yeah, I am thinking that 70k is in range...with an outside shot at 75, depending on weather.
I hope this passion stays when we start 0-2. But love the energy.
I'm going to be in Moab Utah riding on the rocks....somebody please take notes for me. Haha.
It's Over 9000!
Over 9000 is a popular catchphrase derived from the Japanese manga anime series Dragon Ball Z, typically used as an innumerable quantifier to describe a large number of something like "several", "lots", "butt loads" and even the metric "ass tonne".

Dragonball Z reference lol. And yes - WE GOIN OVER 9000!!!! 😎
I’ll be there and the temp should be pretty set around 70, perfect. Looks like possible rain Thursday and Friday so just hoping that doesn’t get pushed into Saturday. Looking good right now!
My phone says high of 63° A few showers early with mostly cloudy conditions. Winds NE 10-20 mph. 30% chance of rain
Gotta think that this wind pushes all. that rain. through before next Saturday.
I will be there, sadly my friends have tickets and. actually want to watch some of the game inside the stadium, but that just means we will have to sneak in some booze.

Approximate debut spring game attendance for the last 4 new coaches...
2004- Callahan, 61K (warm weather, no tv)
2008- Pelini, 80K (warm weather, no tv)
2015- Riley, 77K (warm weather, televised)
2018- Frost, 87K (cold weather, televised)
High numbers for Pelini and Frost make sense.
It was beautiful weather for Callahan's debut. I remember he did a double take looking at all the fans in the stadium when he ran onto the field. I thought more people would be interested in the unveiling of the WCO. Perhaps the Solich firing was still to raw for some.
For being a questionable hire, Riley's debut had high attendance numbers. The weather was really nice.

Yep I saw they changed it right after I said that…I’ll be there rain or shine!
This is exactly right. The Northern states are at a big disadvantage. My daughter and son-in-law live in the Columbus area and have been to several OSU Spring games ( $7.00 admission ) and have missed the last 3 years because of crappy weather. He's an OSU grad. In fact, one year they packed over 100,000 with 20.000 more outside. And those are legit figures as they charge an admission price
But in all honesty, Nebraska is the nost impressive - by far. OSU's campus is only 1 1/2 miles from a major metropolitan area - I believe Columbus has almost one million inside the city limits and around 2.3 million with its suburbs - more than the whole state of Nebraska. My point - Nebraska has the strongest fan base in CF - PERIOD

Who is even second in the west?
Those schools are all so lame, what does NW get, 50 people?

No TV that year still chaps my ass. I need to let it go.

I am sure the weather forecast won’t change again between now and game time.
Yea ha. As long as it’s dry and at least 45 I’m good!I am sure the weather forecast won’t change again between now and game time.
I would imagine a slow down of sales as people wait on the weather.
Anything without rain/wind and over 50 will be fine.

Nebraska was still in the Big 12 in 2008. I believe you're thinking of the first Big 10 spring game in 2011, which was cancelled at the last minute due to weather. That one still frustrates me as well. I had a house party set up to watch the spring game.
