NIL Event Tonight

MCMLXXX · July 23

I will not be able to make it to the event at Marty B's tonight. Hopefully there will be a good turnout. Who will be attending tonight?

The confused emoji confuses me. The event has been advertised for a long time. What is the confusion?

Would like to go, sounds like a great event. Need a report from anyone that attends.

If it was at Scotty B's, I would be there.

Talking to you Marty.

Wish I'd known about it earlier. I could have made it. Any excuse to get some bacon wrapped jalapeños. Those things are wicked!

They need to advertise better. Noone even knew about it.

I received a few emails over at least a two-week period prior to the event.

Just read where Texas Tech is playing a softball pitcher from California $1 million to play for one season. I just don't see how we can compete in the NIL sweepstakes.

I received emails and they posted about it multiple times on social media. Not sure how a UNT fan could have been unaware of the event.

I never got one sadly.

Tuesday at 6p in Bartonville is a tough ask.

No kidding. If you really want this to be successful then have it on Friday or Saturday.

Not NIL but another “giving” event:

Yeah the crowd looked empty. Poor planning on their part.

If everyone who complained about an event on Tuesday night shows up at the Gala on a Friday night that event should be SRO.

They need to take those pics down. They had a terrible turnout.

Bingo.

Don't they assume that most Mean Green faithful live and work near the employment centers of Plano, Frisco, Las Colinas, Richardson, Addison, and Downtown Dallas? It takes every bit of coordination to make 7 p.m. basketball games during the week in the winter in Denton when you don't live/work in Denton. I'd need to leave the office at 4 pm to make Bartonville by 6 pm on a weeknight.

The time and the location is the point. They don’t want the DFW working class crashing their exclusive club.
