    Pro-tip for anyone who was waiting in those long ass lines to get in before the MSU game. Gate 4. Find it. Use it. Love it. We walked in at 555 with absolutely no line.

    Unless you're showing up just before first pitch, there are garages in and around the Old Market area where I parked once or twice. It's a ~1 mile hike to TDA but there are plenty of bars and shit along the way if you need to stop and have a beer. I've only glommed on to tailgates at TDA and never parked close so not sure how the close-in parking works.

    After your first trip to Omaha, you'll think back to all the times you almost went and have some heavy duty regrets. At least that's how it was in my case.

    With a program like ours, the right move is not to mark out the number and add a new one, but instead to masking tape over it and write in this year's count. Then next year, remove tape and repeat.

    I guess no one has looked, but if you just want to get in the stadium, there are still outfield seats available. If you go to the CWS Omaha site and find the tickets section, you'll be redirected to Ticketmaster. The seats shown include resale tickets at (currently) ridiculous prices, but if you filter out the resale tickets you can buy in the outfield now for $28 ea plus fees. Outfield this year is not GA as in years past. Reserved seats.

    If you're willing to pay $300 a seat you're not going to miss out on buying good seats right now. You're going to be overpaying when you could buy better seats closer to game day.

    Yeah and when he says "dudes" he doesn't mean the scalpers. We just ignored the scalpers and eventually some local would walk up with a couple of tickets, I don't remember anyone asking for over face.

    The pitchers in this game are throwing some fucking meatballs up there.

    It could also be said that Ben McDonald choked them out.

    I was surprised to see a few new hotel options open back up, and then I remembered that Arkansas fans were probably doing a bunch of sad cancelations. 😎

    I like Slowdown next to TDA. The place in RF where you can actually see the game from the upstairs patio is a total shitshow, Slowdown has a large outdoor area, so even with crowds I don't remember having to wait long for a beer. Easy to pound drinks right up to first pitch and then hop across the street to the game. I like Jackson Street Tavern. Not your traditional old school Omaha steakhouse but the steak I had there a few years ago was good.

    No reseed. Everything is locked in. We play winner of MSU-ND presumably Sunday, I would guess in the night slot.
  13. TornACL
    I am no expert but my favorites right now would be Vandy, Texas, Virginia, Arizona based on what I have seen. Arkansas is terrifying in one game but in the CWS their pitching depth, or lack thereof, is a problem.

    Yes put 36 or whatever oven mitt stickers on Antico's helmet before Saturday nights game so all the fuckboys can lose their minds.

    Plus that's so played out. "Oh this is gonna be such a pain in the ass for them lol" they say as they spend 4 hours at the bank getting a wheelbarrow of pennies wrapped up and delivered. Stupid.

    One thing bureaucrats do efficiently is finding ways to honor fellow bureaucrats.

    We were there three days and I tipped 20 at the start of each day. Twice to the same bartender, then we had a stand in on the third day. The first night we were there, we found the service to be ok but slow. After the 20 dollar tip thing, it became muy rapido. I don't like to wait for more drinks.

    It's going to be funny when TCU still gets back to Omaha before A&M.

    This was the play when we stayed at some place in Playa Del Carmen. Pool bar bartender, first beer, slapped down a 20 and told him I would be here all day. From then on if he was in the middle of making a drink and I came up to the bar, he'd stop what he was doing and go grab me a beer. All the suckers who were standing there politely waiting looked at me like WTF. Cash is king, amigo.

    So dumb. And it's "fewer" not "less" you fucking dumbass.

    I tried to look up the stats page for South Florida but it didn't seem to be working for me. What do we know about these jabronis?
  22. TornACL
    They're prepping for their future careers, man.

    I think that Stanford Tech series is gonna be bananas.

    Fans will be plenty lubricated. This is perfect.

    It was Fresno State who won as a 4.
