Nah that is the journey song

Actually the alumni for LHB are pretty cleanly split 50/50 on the issue. It caused a bit of a rift in the alumni band since even the officers were divided on the issue.

Turns out, old alums generally want students to shut up and play and more recent alums of LHB (yo) kind of don't give a shit since we're cool with the students making the band their own and reflective of the values they want to see.

And I agree with @DalTxHornFan - the current director of bands Scott Hanna is the fucking worst. He conducts shit at weird tempos, fills the books in the stands with all sorts of shitty tags and never plays any traditionals besides Grandioso.

Only there's a lot more older alumni of LHB than younger.  Well, depending on how you define old I guess.  I'm 42 so I'm definitely old

I see LHB as a service organization, and that's how Paula Crider who was Director during my time in LHB clearly positioned it to my class.  If you're in service to the University, and the University has gone through all the negotiations with stakeholders to come to conclusion to save The Eyes as the school song, you play it.  If you have a personal issue playing The Eyes, you should stand on your principles and quit LHB, fight for justice, whatever.  My $0.02

How pushy were they?

Not at all. They said up front they are not calling to change my mind or discuss what is still unknown.

The only topic was the reiterated the importance of the foundation support during this time and asked whether I was willing to donate all or a portion for 2020.

now at 25% according to CDC.

I'm guessing CDC now has an idea of the number of season ticket holders foregoing their tickets this year, so they are good with 25 percent.

[woohorn 1,131]

Is the "donate, credit, or refund" decision related to Foundation or tix/park? All the talk about loyalty points makes me think it is Foundation only, but idk.

I'm planning on going (will post how my seats change) and they are offering 1/6th proration for tix/park back to account for the one lost home game. I guess that is about $120 per seat and the only decision I have to make if I go.

[Scholz 11,938]

25%??!!  So I guess the all out lobbying assault we put on the Gov to try and keep up with aggys didn't work.  Shucks.

['stache 21,797]

So are they going to remove seats? Or just assign seats spread apart and try their best when people move towards huddling near the 50 yard line?

That’s the way I understand it; if you’re assigned to the top corner of the WS upper deck you best stay put...

Talked to LHF today, we’re section 5 and got moved back four rows, and about 20 seats further from midfield. How will I even be able to see the field from there??

Not till September.

I went from Section 17 to Section 115 Row 22. I’m out unless they find me something in the lower bowl.

[MirrOlure 14,760]

Same seats. Section 104 Row 4.

Have they said anything about wearing masks while in our seats?

Mine in Section 27 got moved down about 12 rows and over 10 seats.

i was told you’re supposed to wear a mask at all times unless you’re eating or drinking.

Sounds like you don’t need a mask as long as you have enough beer

[EZ$ 2,102]

We haven’t got the call for our tickets yet (1st year last year, so I’m sure way down the list). I’m assuming we’ll be able to sell them if we can’t go to a game or two?  I would think the secondary market should be pretty good.

Yes, it was pretty amusing to see the fellow alcoholics defend the drunk Tech fan, are you AA buddies with him?

I can see it now. Aggy will shut down upper deck and endzones to get to 50%.

even if i felt completely safe, am I really going to enjoy a game at DKR at 25% capacity?

i mean, imagine the dull home games vs Baylor in the 2000s.

Now imagine 2/3 of a smaller crowd than that while playing Iowa State, UTEP, Baylor, West Virginia and TCU.

I'm sure aggy is busy repainting all of their seat lines on the benches at Kroger Field.  Up that capacity to 200k, go 25% and profit!

[woohorn 1,131]

My upper west side seats got moved one section over and 10 rows back. Not complaining.

Told that there are eight empty seats on each side (to aisle on one side) and nobody DIRECTLY in front or behind me, but not going to be 6' away from other rows.

[EZ$ 2,102]

We got “upgraded” about 15 rows closer and isle seats now.  However, I’m 50/50 on whether I’ll go to any games or not.  Wonder what the third-party resale  market will look like??

I’ll buy all your tickets, $50 per seat/game.

Splitting with a friend. Pretty sure neither of us can go for the first game. $50 per seat/quarter and you have a deal.
