Was there a season ticket holder gift this year? 

Normally they would have handed them out at the August Practice event at Apogee.  No bobble-head, no 4th or 5th license plate frame for my cars.  I'm still bent out of shape by not having plastic tickets + lanyards for HC.   They've sort of set the expectation over the last bunch of years that they're be something.  Hell, I even paid for the at home Covid season chachi box last year.  

Do I have to download my gift like my tickets?

i grabbed a mgsf golf umbrella at the event

I think that was my umbrella you took.  Was it sitting next to a red thermos?  I think at your level you were supposed to get the MG jar opener.

I was at this event, was there an actual table with a list of season ticket holders to pick these up at? Or was it like everything else, first come... first serve... season tix not required?

I got a free yard sign to advertise the Apogee 10 year anniversary and another Alumni Association reusable bag for the grocery. 😕

There was a table set up right next to the table where you picked up the parking passes. I'm assuming you gave them your name & they let you pick what you wanted. I stood there for a few minutes but didn't see anything that I didn't already have.

They told me they ran out of the blankets by the time I got there

Hmm.  I'd love to have been in the meeting where this was discussed.

"We have <X> Season Ticket holder accounts.  We need to think about what we're going to give them as thank you gifts."
 - "Hey, let's order <X-1,000> blankets."
"Why would we order 1,000 less blankets than the number of accounts?"
 - "Because, F'em!"
"Done!  Next agenda item: Which items should we replace in the team store so we can buy more blankets and charge the rest of our season ticket holders for them?"

The best gifts I can remember were the North Texas green parkas in the early 2000's.

They were really nice quality, and you'll still see alumni wearing them during inclement weather events.

The best gift was the soft-side cooler. I still regularly use it.

My kids each walked up and grabbed one.  The people manning the table gave me a blank stare when I asked what the MGSF gift was…but they let the kids grab whatever they wanted.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
