Does anyone from the Robert Winslow era want to share about the audition/non-audition process of getting into the GB during his tenure.

 

 

I didn't have to audition, just had to register.  I'm not sure, but I think they checked to see if you were a music major or not.  I can't say if there were auditions for non-majors.  Within the drum line, the grad student "coordinator" (for lack of a better term) "auditioned" everyone to see who would play snare, tri-toms, bass, and cymbals.  I wonder if there had been someone who really couldn't play, whether he/she would have been encouraged to drop out, but that wasn't the case.

It was a required "class" for music ed majors, worth 1 credit, and it also fulfilled one of the four Phys Ed classes required for graduation.  I don't know if it's the same now.

Yep. Loving something or someone that doesn't love itself is a recipe for an extremely unhealthy relationship. We are like the guy whose wife has gone through rehab and has been clean for a year

My current bill for 2016 is 1320.00, which includes MGC membership and four season tickets in section 105. I'm the only one that regularly attends games in my family, so I regularly give away and/or sell the other three each game.

Same here, although it's been a lot harder for me to find people to come to the games with me.  Most of the time, I can't give my unused tickets away, so sell them?  Hah!

@SilverEagle - Check your renewal invoice - that $1320 includes chairbacks, which I know you haven't had.  Maybe your donation is more than the minimum $500, though.

Add:

Gas: approx 22 gallons round-trip; this year, assuming $2/gallon this year, that would be $44.  Much better than when gas was up near $4/gallon.

Hotel: $75 -$125 assuming I stay one night.

So, let's say $150 per game x 6 = $900.  So my total is well over $2000 for the season.

Anyone give up their season tickets?

I'm seriously considering it.  With games two weeks in a row in both September and in October, I may just go to one of each, to the SMU game, and more likely Marshall than MUTS.  I'll definitely be at the game at Rice, and if I can swing it, I might schedule a trip to visit my mom on Long Island so I could go to the Army game.  if my wife wanted to go to the Riverwalk, then maybe I'd go to the UTSA game, but that is a week before La Tech, so I'd still prefer to go to Denton.

So, if I do that, maybe 4 home games, and possibly 2 or 3 road games.  That's still quite a commitment, I'd say.

I was just looking at Apogee seating map page.  Does anyone know how this works?  It just might be the way to go for us out-of-towners:

Mean Green Flex Plan 20 tickets for $300, to be used in any combination for any game.

Well over $1,500 and I don't like to even think about it now.  But until RV is gone it is going to be $125.00.  About $30 to $40 on 3 games ---maybe.  Maybe less if RV states past his current contract.  I am not going to burn money like Danny DeVito. lol

$400-500 On Tickets

$300 on Alcohol to get me through the games

$150-200 for Swag

 

More expensive if you are winning. School raises the ticket prices and required minimum donation, celebration booze, more swag because you are even happier to wear it and then throw in road games which now sound like more fun.

Not renewing my season tickets for the first time since I graduated.  

I applaud you for your use of your time and money. Your family will enjoy you being around and you will enjoy not being in a bad mood after some shellacking against a team that you truly believe we should be able to compete against. And not seeing the Sweater vest will be good for your blood pressure, especially when he is clinging to the UNT 17 all game long, letting everyone know that he isn't going anywhere, anytime soon.

      UAB (12/31/24)

      I'll be there. How is everyone feeling as we enter conference play? Overall I'm feeling good. We are 2nd in NET in the conference. The two best publicly available models, KenPom and Bart Torvik, have us as the 2nd best team in conference and finishing that way. Our defense has been really good; it's actually better than last season. The biggest improvement is in the defensive rebounding. We are pulling down 74.8% of defensive boards compared to 68% last year. Of course the team isn't without concerns. Although we start the same lineup every game, we haven't found a consistent closing one. There isn't a 'go to' scorer. The shot creation and/or shooting has been lacking in long stretches. So far our adjusted offensive efficiency is the lowest it's been since the 2019 season, but I don't think (hope) it will necessarily stay that way. I'd be disappointed if we don't finish at least top 4 in conference. The conference, as others have noted in many threads, just isn't as good as last season. Last season there were 4 other teams in the top 100 of KenPom and 7 in the top 150. This season there are 2 other teams in the top 100 and 5 in the top 150. Last year in conference we played 3 Q1 games and 5 Q2 games; this year we're projected to play 1 Q1 game and 3 Q2 games. A top 4 finish in conference means that we would need to win 3 games in Ft. Worth to go to the big dance. That's always the dream. The NIT as the consolation prize wouldn't be bad either. Could we host a NIT game again? Last year Indiana St., Princeton, and Bradley hosted opening round games. That would be a fun atmosphere.

      You have to consider many of these are the only entertainment option in town. Fargo, ND vs Denton. The entire state of ND follows the Bison.

      Is it just me or is Eric Morris destined for great things?

      It's just you bro. Same reason why you supported McCarney's #Hit6 campaign. The bar is in Hell.
