I guess they'll need to spread the band out more and need additional space on that side of the stadium for them, and space the students out more. It may help the place look more full. Any news on the season ticket holder gift? I assume it will be a face covering but that's just a guess. I've been using the gaiters given out for for FAU game a couple of years ago - for free, they work pretty good and make me look cool! GMG.

Here's what SMU is doing so we may be similar...

If stadiums can only be filled to 50% capacity, and Apogee gets to that number, can we count it as a sell-out? Asking for a friend GMG

Hopefully she can help him with his face paint...

Maybe this year's season ticket holder gift will be masks - I'm already set on bags, bobble heads and coasters! Make it happen, Wren...

Agreed! I filled out the survey today from MGSF and said the game day experience should be something fun and entertaining, not a modified medical exam. Wearing masks when it's 90+ degrees doesn't sound fun to me. Plus, I don't want to be hassled by the ushers constantly with "Sir, please cover your face." I already know I have a face for radio and a voice for print, so constant reminding by the Apogee police is not necessary. GMG

During a meeting with the Alumni Board yesterday, Dr. Neal was asked about fall sports. He said they hope to have sports but you need other teams to play, so a lot depends on what rest of the conference decides to do. As far as game day, he said everyone who attends a game will be required to wear a mask. I hope by the time September rolls around, things will look a look a lot different but who knows. I saw this option pop up on my Facebook feed...https://ntmluxury.com/product/north-texas-mean-green-fm3d5-v-ntm0091

I first met Cary at a watch party at Fuzzy's in 2017. It was the first one I ever went to since moving back to Dallas. I didn't know what to expect and didn't know anyone who was going to be there. Cary walked right up and introduced himself, told me to put my name in the hat for prizes, told me what was going to happen and made me feel right at home. He checked on me a few times throughout the game and kept everyone entertained. He made sure I was having a good time, and that kept me coming back game after game. Over the past few years, I got to know him better and was glad I did It was always fun running into him at UNT events and hearing his laugh. I wish I had known him for a longer period of time. RIP, Cary...you'll be missed.

I'll be there with beer stein in hand - GMG

I hope the staff knows where to go to get the steins on Saturday. Seems like every time there is some giveaway, the folks working at The Pit have no idea about it. So, you have to go around and ask a bunch of people and look like a big dummy. GMG

Here's the link for the stein giveaway tickets w/2 drinks https://offer.fevo.com/mens-basketball-vs-utep-ae8soff-62c0671?fevoUri=mens-basketball-vs-utep-ae8soff-62c0671%2F

I have a laptop that is less than a year old, so I would guess it's pretty up to date. I just launch ESPN+ from the browser and plug the HDMI from the laptop to the TV. I do this for all my streaming services and ESPN+ is the only one that every freezes. I'm not saying it's not my computer, but it seems unlikely since it's just with ESPN+. Oh well, I'll just grin and bear it. #FirstWorldProblems

Saturday should be a big crowd. I saw something about a beer stein giveaway, too GMG
