I believe this two game stretch on the road may be among the most important we've see in a long time. We have the opportunity to set up our Halloween night game as potential win #6. We will have a captive TV audience on Halloween and a 5-3 record would be amazing. And, let's face it, winning back o back on the road would go a LOOOONNG way toward energizing anyone who follows this team.

So, here's my suggestion. We've asked Mac to do HIS part (rightfully so). If he delivers, and I believe he will, then let's throw out all of our excuses and do OUR part. Let's commit to a +1 operation. Every one of us makes sure that every ticket we have is spoken for...plus one more person. So, for instance, I have three season tickets...I'll make sure there are 4 in my party on Halloween night.

I have 4 tickets and 2 parking passes that are normally taken up. My family is staying home, so I have begun recruiting a few single dudes or recently married dudes with no kids... They hate passing out candy anyways since they have no kids... I believe this is your sales niche to do your part... We need butts in seats out there. Rice is a key game... We shall see... Start selling everybody... Get those tickets used. Good luck, we are all counting on you... And don't call me Shirley...

Usually give my extra ticket to a student friend....... got a Rice Grad coming this time. Will literally threaten my friends fellow-student roommates if they don't get off their ass and into the stadium. Fair enough?

Cool post Joe.

Here is an even better idea. Don't worry so much about throwing down an ultimatum (i.e. only if the team wins both road games) in order to get your butts in the seats on Halloween. Instead, start making plans on how you are going to get to the stadium and bring as many as you can with you because it's our next home game. I understand where you are coming from though. If the planets somehow align and we are able to win 1, and dare I dream, 2 road games, then I agree that there should be no excuse to not pack the place on Halloween.

Ultimatums are not beneficial in the long run.

I have four season tickets and just got off the phone with the ticket office to order two more Rice single game tickets for a couple of friends to attend the game. I also ordered two more for the UTEP game for another friend.

Next......
