25 Worst College Football Experiences

[greenjoe]

I wonder if the Denia neighborhood group will expect any special street closures for a concert or other large non-football event ?

There isn't much parking by the stadium and what there is will be reserved.

I was told by a rep from the Athletic Dept. that there will be more parking by the new stadium than there was at Fouts.

I was told by a rep that "Dodgeball" would lead us to eternal glory.

There is a difference between a statement of fact and an opinion. He was talking about parking lot space not the surrounding area.

"People need to realize parking is going to be different and they may have to walk. There isn't much parking by the stadium and what there is will be reserved. You watch, people are going to expect to be able to drive up to the stadium and park there only to be redirected accross the highway. I can hear the bitching now."

Ahhh yes, the eternal paradox of the North Texas fan. While many of our own scream from the mountain tops "We want to act like the big boys! We don't want to be small time!" they manage to utter in the next breath "But I don't want to pay too much for it and want all of the convenience of what I'm accustomed to at Fouts!" Strangely, nobody complains about having to park at the basketball venue and take a BUS to OU's stadium, or having to walk a mile from the tailgating areas at UT...or K-State or fill in your "big time" school. Nope, many want all the conveniences of drawing 15,000 to a craptacular stadium like Fouts...but want the pageantry and crowds of the bigger stadiums.

I think those of us who attended North Texas' 2009 season opener at Ball State would strongly disagree with calling that the worst college football stadium experience.

All these schools lack traditions.
