Got my SMU ticket

[oldguystudent]

Went the John WIlliams route because:

A)  Beer, transportation, more beer, more transportation, more beer, ticket to football game, more transportation, more beer

B)  He's already got the event together and is promoting it through effective channels with super easy purchase that took under a minute

C)  Forty bucks

Haven't heard a word from the UNT ticket office about this game.  Not one word.  Still waiting for the ticket office to pick up its game.  Show me, don't tell me. 

(And honestly, past experience may actually compel me to go up to Denton on Wednesday so that I can find out on premise if my annual ticket order is correct)

Did you go last time?  I didn't drink at all on that trip, and I don't recall that it got wild at all.

the wildness doesn't bother me, just wondering about the age limit for a kid...hell, the boy pours me drinks and gets me beer anyways, so it's not like he isn't around it!

I know in similar situations with my kid, I've found it better to ask forgiveness than permission.  Result is that there's not a bar in Deep Ellum that won't let her in now.  

(Relax teetotallers.  We go for the music, not the booze)

I do not believe I am aware of the John Williams route.  I know about the season ticket packages but not specifically for the SMU game.  Where can I go to find out more?  Thank you in advance sir.

Took my 6 year old with us 2 years ago.  No issues.

You are welcome in retrospect.

excellent...thanks for that information!

I see SMU has 7 home games this year-that should hurt their avg attendance.  Oh wait they don't count people in the seats  that just guesstimate.

I'm not gonna speak for the organizers of this event, but I don't recall there being a shortage two years ago.

I applaud John for being awesome as usual. However I'd rather gouge my eyes out with a dull spoon than step foot on that campus.
