Is your band coming?

honest question...is there anyway that FAU alum and students actually mobilize and show up in strong numbers for this game? I'd love to be traveling for a game with some atmosphere.

But aren't you kind of good luck at sparsely attended and highly random conference championship games far from Texas? Don't mess with a proven recipe for success.

Sounds like it'll be half FAU fans half NT fans then.

We had 18 - 20k in the seats for the last game, how about you guys?

[Pavlovs Eagle]

I'll be there... In Friday at midnight, out Sunday at 8am.  Staying at the Wyndham by FAU.

Then we should see some people at the championship game.

I'm so envious of the MG faithful going. I looked into those Spirit airlines round-trip Saturday flight, but I don't think it's meant to be. I feel like I brought great luck to the MG when I attended the LaTech game but I think they'll have to do this one without me. I wonder if the Muenster crew supporting Fuschle will be there?????

I could have sworn you went to the first JJ title, but that was a different time when this board allowed me to have a dissenting opinion and violent censorship didn't constantly threaten my loved ones.

nah...I was at the tourney game (eff you, Michael Sturns) but watched the conference final from some bar in Dallas with my old college roommate...then decided that I needed to be in Denton and I believe ended up drunk with the late @UNT_92_Fan (may she rest in peace)

There will be a good crowd there.  If you are not familiar with the stadium, on the home side their is a premium section called the Hyundai Deck.  From the 40 to the 40 there are high tops and standing room with Tiki bar.  Many (most people) do not sit in there seats they stand their and have a big cocktail party.  100 section is filled, but the 200 seats are sold but not utilized.

I was going to post something for you to meet up and tailgate with us if you like.  We park in the Red Lot (1 of the 2 lots you need a parking pass to).  Its basically diagonally across the street (Southeast) of the stadium.  We are on the east side of the red lot set up on the grass on the south end.  Space 159.  The lot east of the red lot is the silver lot.  The silver lot is a cash lot for the game.  Close walk to where we are.  You actually enter the silver lot the same way you enter the red lot.

If you enter the east entrance (it is 1 of the 2 entrances with a stop light and FAU signage) to the campus off of Glades Road you will be able to take the road all way around right up to the stadium to get into the silver lot.  We probably will be there about 9 a.m.  We have a white Publix tailgater of game tent.  All are welcome, come on by.

Look forward to seeing you Saturday. 

 

Awesome! Getting ready to board my flight. We’ll look forward to meeting you and your crew Saturday morning.

[MeanGreen_MBA]

I am at the airport right now. Term. A13. Looking for my Green Peeps?!?!?  Take off at 10:30am.

So when @Green Lantern and I meet you for tailgating and you're just absolutely devastated by our looks, suave and charm...can we count on you to get us into this premium tiki bar?

[Censored by Laurie]

Also..after a frantic cross-town Austin morning rush hour drive to recover a forgotten ID, I'm about to board. Don't see any green in wait...any ATXers heading out this morning? (If so, save me an aisle seat....I'm a bit further down the Southwest boarding queue than I'd prefer)

Buy a Hyundai Deck ticket and your in!!!

[UNT Five&Dime]

Did anyone pick up their ticket(s) from the ticket office? Curious what section we are going to be in.

Still more than FAU can stir up.  I did hear that FAU was handing out free buffet coupons to the local Luby's to entice the more "mature" citizens of Florida to stop by.  This is why the game is early, so they can get to Luby's by 4:00pm.  Creative marketing at its finest.

[Pavlovs Eagle]

At the airport in Phoenix in my Mean Green gear... Flying PHX-HOU-FLL... Hope there's some Mean Green faithful on the HOU-FLL flight!  I'll be in an aisle seat.

😂😂😂hilarious...just like the score is going to be.  In all seriousness, don’t waste your money.  Save it for the Pullen Weed Eater Bowl in Nowhereville, AR.

First game got out of hand real quick, and we never recovered.  I have a feeling there will be some pretty disappointed FAU fans come 2 pm or so tomorrow afternoon.   It will be pretty cool celebrating a conference championship on your turf though. 👀🐸☕️
