Hey all,

One of the reasons I always liked 11a for this game is that the fair opens parking at 7a and gates at 8 when the game is early. That let us get to the fair at 7, drink in the lot til 8, then get a Fletcher's and a fried butter etc while the air was crisp and the lines were short to non-existent. The last time the game was 2:30, the website said parking at 9 and gates at 10. We went with that, and it was hot and crowded when we arrived. But people mentioned that it still opened early that year? Anyone with any intel about when parking/gates will open this year?

Parking not open til 3.  Gates don't open til 4.  You and any other Sooners you hang out with, should probably just skip this year.  No sense in wasting your time.

Would think you would want me watching every minute this year, Number One.

2017 was the last 2:30 game.  Lots at 9. Fair at 10 that year.  

That's the year that people said it actually opened earlier after the fact b/c I posted bitching about it haha. If it truly holds to this, goddamn all the 230 truthers.

Is that accurate? Seems crazy they would wait until 10 to open up the fair.

Yeah I think when the games are at 2:30 they just run the normal schedule of 10am-10pm it's only when we have the early game that they shuffle the starting time back.

It's 4.5 hours before the kickoff, unlike the 3 hours before they get with an 11am kick when they open at 8am.

I park on a nice lawn south of Fitzgerald and I'm sure those gentlemen will take your money earlier than 9am if you want to give it to them.

I am telling you my ass was there in 2017, at 8a.  had my wax paper cup and fletchers knocked out.

 

why was I there at 8am you ask....

 

because my dumb ass thought the fucking game was 11 like it almost always was.      we had ubered there, so the choice was uber back to the hotel for 2 hours... or fucking get hammered.   I got hammered.

Yeah I'm almost 100% positive we got into the fair no later than 8 back in 2017.

I assume they like money, so waiting until 10 would be strange. Sounds like that's not the case though.

Alright idiots. I took the bull by the horns and called the fair direct and was told the fairgrounds will open at 7 am on Saturday. 

But we were all trying to confuse the Sooner....way to go jackass.

Spread this year eclipses our previous years pretty considerably! I'll go up to $50 straight up or up to $200 on the +14, your choice.

Oh come on. How many years have I taken Texas straight up when OU was giving points? I’ll take the $50 though.

Fairground opens at 7, but that's irrelevant, because the game moved to a Home and Home with this year's game in Norman.

It opened at 7 AM in 2017. I looked at the timestamp of some pictures on my phone from that year. Have one from inside the fair at 7:39 AM. 

Yeah it opened way, way before 10AM that year. I have pics at 9:17 and was well into it at that point…

Was at that one. Holy fuck almost got heat stroke. It was hot as shit. With global warming need to move this back to last Saturday of the fair.

Several for sure, which is why I will take the worst of it with you, but never over two TD either. I’ll also offer a modified spread of +7 up to $150 if you’d prefer.

It was on Oct 14.

that’s about the latest the game has ever been played.

I don’t think moving it back to the last weekend (all of 7 days) would make that much of a difference.

 

at least a good portion of the stadium gets shade with a 2:30 kickoff

I like the 11am kickoff because I use the end of the first quarter as a good time to stop drinking, kind of like the seventh inning stretch at a baseball game. That's all out the window for an afternoon kick. I am liable to be blacked before it even starts.

Georgia is in deep shit. Sark is going to absolutely not hold back..amd our WR's are better than their secondary. Which is their weak spot. Our o-line wiill have no issues with their front seven. Simmons will have a breakout. Our defense is legit. Carson aneck is mid at best..and their WR's don't have a Bowers Ora Add MCCokomey. Their best WR was kicked off tree team. Quinn will carve them up. The only reason they came back against was because their db's were shit. Ours isn't.

2017 was one of the most hammered I've ever been at the game.  2:30 is fucking rough.

Hell yeah I have. Jist like I did with Bama and Michigan

 we are big and strong and have just as much talent and maybe more  than they do. Our speed is incredible, and we have so many WR's who can/are elite is is just insane. We can make screens into TD's at an incredible rate. Bond is sick, and Golden is a beast. DeAndre Moore is a great blocker, but his hands are like glue and he can make 50/50 balls at an insane rate. Wingo is the wild card who has speed and great hands. Just like Golden.

You’ll need to leave at halftime for that pipe dream. The teams won’t even be off fair property before 7.

Don't take this the wrong way.  You seem like one of the good ones.  But fuck your face.  ou sucks.

Yeah. We’re running the regular season table (barring significant injuries, of course). And I don’t think any game will be particularly close. I guess UGA will be if you call 10-14 pt victory “close.”
