Just wondering if anyone on this message board can provide additional details regarding the SMU Tailgate Event that is currently being promoted by the Mean Green Online Ticket Office. The description from the website reads:

$95 Tickets & Tailgate Package, 2 Endzone Tickets, 2 Tailgate Tickets, Spiriki Mean Green Club Membership

$135 Tickets & Tailgate Package, 2 Sideline Tickets, 2 Tailgate Tickets, Spiriki Mean Green Club Membership

I'm trying to find out which sections these tickets are being culled from, and whether or not the Mean Green Club will be hosting the tailgate again this year. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Seems like a pretty good idea.  Looks like it may be targeted to non MGC members in the DFDub.  Hopefully, that will add a couple of thousand unsuspecting alumni.  They should promote free GMG.com membership as well!

The tailgate is being hosted jointly by athletics and the UNT Alumni Association.  I just heard today that final arrangements are still being made.

You may but tickets to both the game and the tailgate apart from the packages listed.  I did just that as I am already a Mean Green Club member.  I believe my tailgate ticket was $25.  There is a pre-sale price and an "at the door price".  The at the door price will be higher.  I recommend you contact the UNT ticket office and purchase your game tickets and tailgate tickets in advance.  Saves you some cash that way.

I remember SMU game tickets being listed in the season ticket package. I can't recall if the tailgate was mentioned as well. Does anyone recall this? I would have paid for both at the time if it was listed like that.

I do not remember this.  Would be nice if it were true.

SMU tickets were included on the season ticket order form.  They were $35 each, I believe.

Hmmm,. I assume this means that there is no room in the SMU tailgating area for individual NT fans to set up their stuff. Keep the riff raff sequestered under their own tent.....to be around their own kind........not surprising...:mellow:

 

addendum: My wife wants to know if the SMU officials are requiring our officials to set up a gucci brand tent.

Only thing I can find is in the single tickets section of meangreensports.com, which sends you to SMU's ticketmaster.  

Eh, I'm not worried.  I'll get it figured out.  After all, I've got dozens of priority points.  Dozens, I say!

I don't have the invoice but in the letter it states I can order SMU tickets in conjunction with my season tickets.SeasonTicketLetter.jpg

I'm probably over reacting.  I'm sure we'll get a very detailed letter, from the UNT Athletic Department,  on SMU Game Ticket Options, Packages and Promotions on Monday, September 14, 2015.

I called the North Texas Ticket Office today, and they confirmed that what Mark said earlier was absolutely correct. You can buy tickets to the game and/or tailgate event directly from them without the need to purchase any special promotional package. These tickets can be bought either together or separately. Current Mean Green Club members will need to pay $20 and $35, for admission to the tailgate and game, respectively. Non-Mean Green Club members will be required to pay an additional $10 for admission to the tailgate event.

That's certainly a better deal than the $95 package on the ticket site.  Thanks for the info.  Did they indicate what the tailgate entails?

I don't know for sure, but I think that food and drink will be provided. At least, I believe that was the case last year in Austin. I honestly don't know for certain.

That $95 package also includes a Mean Green Club membership.  While I'd love to see them promoting it more heavily (e.g. not finding out about it first on GMG) I commend them for trying to push the MGC membership along with the event.

      I hope we lose to Temple

      Not sure everyone is understanding of college football landscape. Miami paid a transfer DL $250,000 AND THE DUDE DOESN'T PLAY, He is a back up (insurance policy if you will.) I totally understand on not wanting to throw money at players but the reality is if you can pay, kids will join. If not, you're relying on finding kids who don't care about money (GOOD LUCK) and just want to compete and win football games. On our current roster 4 players from Littrell era contributed to wins this season. Jordan Brown, Damon Ward, Jett Duncan, and Rod Brown. We played 10 games with a very sub par DC. We did not pursue the portal near hard enough to help fill holes in the defensive scheme. IMO at our level we should be a 4 down front with the ability to hop in and out of 3 down when needed in favorable down and distances. 46 players on the current roster are Jr or Sr. The vast majority of this roster are So, RS Fr, and the biggest group being true Freshman. You don't win a bunch of games at any level with a bunch of true freshman. The fact we've been in them to compete has been a miracle (No I am not happy we aren't pulling them out or winning.) The young and transfer talent they have brought in is encouraging to me personally. Should we play better, should we be making more plays, ABSOLUTELY. However, coach can't catch the ball for guys, coach can't catch wide open TD's for guys. Coach can't magically make a walk on WR/ ST guy into a bonafide D1 RB. Our scholarship RB's have been banged up like crazy and we have relied on a walk on, and 2 True Freshman RB. I think we go to Temple, play very well and get into a bowl game and then its on. Coach lost our most productive OL in pregame to a freak injury...... PREGAME. Sometimes the ball doesn't bounce your way. Is he perfect? no, but to call for the staff and his job is silly in year 2. The guy did a total rebuild last year and had us IN games with a completely rebuilt roster. He needs to make the right DC hire in the offseason. My pick is La Tech current DC. We will see what happens.

      What is this program missing?

      We need an offensive coach who puts the defense first. All the teams mentioned (Boise, Tcu, Cincy, UCF) had badass defenses paired with high flying offenses. You CAN still play fundamentally sound defensive football but you can’t pair it with an offense that kids don’t want to play in (what doomed Mac). I actually think DD in 2024 would do both. So the answer is find the next Darrell Dickey. HFC is tricky to hire. He’s got to be someone that can recruit assistants, first and foremost. Dickey had been around a long time and came from a football family (his Dad was KSU HFC) so he had ties everywhere. With a young coach you are betting that he, himself, is going to win games and account for a lack of a deep staff…or that other coaches see him as someone on the rise that they ride the ladder with. That’s what Littrell initially brought and his first staff was tremendous. Then as they started taking promotions he couldn’t replace them. All the doom and gloom in this thread is tiring. UNT still funds the football program at a level that is competitive with the top of the g5. Maybe we need to bring up NIL, but overall, we’re not nearly as far off as some people would have you believe.

      Flyover?

      I heard it was a mispelling, it read elph, it was supposed to say help, so turned around.

      WBB at Houston (11/24/24)

      Let's see if @Cougar King shows up here after our ladies completely dismantle Houston in their own house. Mean Green win 69-53. Light the tower green. I loved when Van Chancellor said he would give the Top Dawg belt to Wooten and the hustle belt to Deck of North Texas and he would give the hustle belt for Houston to their player Love, but you don't give a belt to losers. Hahaha.

      ****OFFICIAL ECU vs UNT IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

      You guys realize that all that has happened to this point in the season is that we’ve beaten all the teams we should have (teams with way below .500 records) and lost to every single team that had a winning record? It’s exactly what a mediocre team does. We’ve seen this show for years now. It’s just that the way our schedule lined up it looks like a collapse. Next week we play a pretty lousy Temple squad. I expect we will win that game unless it is played in a winter storm. Then we can judge if this was a collapse, or just doing what we’ve been doing since 2021.
