K-State's Dirty Little Secret

[Andy Qatz]

For those of you planning to make the trip, you'd be smart to also book rooms in Kansas City. You can always cancel 24 hours ahead of time if you don't use them. Why you ask? Because it's going to take a minor miracle to have the stadium ready on time. K-State has reached an agreement on first right of refusal on some dates with the Chiefs and there is a very good chance the first few games will be hosted at Arrowhead Stadium. Don't expect anyone at K-State to comment on it, and no one at the Chiefs will go on record about it, either. But it's no skin off your back to have a backup plan in place. Use this time to find good deals and that way you're not caught with your pants down some August.

WOW! Thanks for the heads up???

Two words (http://www.bisonville.com/fanguide/dictionary/def000056.html): Bison Home Game. :)

80,000 seats versus 50,000? I'd go for that. Would that be a guaranteed record for a Kansas State home game?

[KSBisonFan]

I hinted at this here and nobody bit.

http://www.bisonville.com/forum/showthread.php?30365-K-State-Game-tickets&p=738879#post738879

My next-door neighbor works as an electrician on the stadium project. He spent Memorial Day and pretty much every waking hour working on the stadium. When I asked him if the project is on schedule, he just laughed. He said it's behind and Arrowhead is the contingency plan for up to the first 4 games.
I'd be all for having the game at Arrowhead.

[EndZoneQB]

Ugh. I hate the location of Arrowhead. It's not near anything and it's not in a college town. I'd rather party in Aggieville than the "Power & Light" district.

[Bison 4 Life]

Not gonna lie. This would be perfect! 50 minutes to Arrowhead is way better than 90 minutes to Manhattan.

[gumby013]

This would work for me as well...since I am already flying into KC.

Also, having been to several Chiefs games, I know you can get some mean BBQ catered into the lots.

Every season ticket holder is screwed. KSU doesn't care. Tickets are invalid.

[bisonmike2]

Shit lets play 2 games against K State. One at arrowhead and another at bill synder field. That would fill out our schedule.

[AKBison]

If this happens, I will be taking the whole family down as their will be plenty of cheap tickets! K-State does not travel well to Arrowhead stadium.

[KSBisonFan]

I actually think KSU's stadium will be completed or at least serviceable for the game. There is too much at stake to get this completed on time and the contractors are going to get slammed with fines if it's not done. The seats in the bowl are intact and as long as the pressbox and suites are enclosed with power I can't see them moving the game.

That's comical. We take 40k+ to Dallas on more than one occasion, the same to Tempe/Glendale. The only reason we wouldn't take 50k+ to any game in Arrowhead would be the level of competition. Well.....you might have a good point after all...

[AKBison]

Tell us about the crowd numbers for farmaggedon? Shouldn't an elite program like yours be able sell out a stadium in a huge metro area like that?

First game against ISU we did well. Second one, not so much. I think there was a perception the game could turn into a rivalry of sorts. The fact of the matter is...nobody really cares about / hates ISU except for possibly U of Iowa.

Games at Arrowhead against California and Southern Cal (both vistories btw) had great KSU turnouts.

For the record, I've not claimed KSU to be an "elite program". There are probably < a dozen of those and KSU is not in that group.

It's on schedule according to everything I've seen or heard. I'm sure a lot of details will not be finished but it should be functional by August 30th which is still 11 weeks away. A couple of live construction cams are available here:

It's a bit behind, but I cannot see it resulting in a location change for the game, especially considering it has nothing to do with the playing surface itself. We've got what, 79 more days? I don't see an issue.

Hopefully the game get moved. Then we would be looking at 15,000+ Bison fans.

BTW, the video that Longhorn dug up is a gem. We need to get ourselves some power towels.

[PlainsBison]

Serious. The game is going to be on Fox Sports 1 or whatever it will be called. Of course K State is going to ensure that the game is played there, and on national television. Publicity will be great.

I wasn't trying to stir up smack by saying that KSU could set an attendance record if the game did get moved to Arrowhead. It looks to me that KSU's attendance record is 53,811. KSU did play Iowa State at Arrowhead in 2009 and 2010 at Arrowhead, but neither game broke 41,000.

Sure seems that with as well as KSU is doing and the way NDSU fans travel, that an attendance record could be set if the game does get moved. Really, it doesn't seem likely that the game will be moved, but it sure would make it easier for us Bison fans.

Since they moved the game to Friday night, the lights need to be working or they will need to bring in temporary lights like they did at Montana for evening playoff games. Will they offer 2 free hotdogs and Cokes for anyone who brings their own generator?

K-State 27, Iowa 7 at Arrowhead Stadium August 26, 2000. Eddie Robinson Classic.
Attendance 77,148.

The 53,811 attendance record is for BSFS and any games played away from there (Arrowhead) do not apply.

You guys are a crack up. The game will be in BSFS. The construction is on schedule. The west side lights are up and working, the east side lights are being installed right now. The building itself is right on schedule. I'm certain some sections will not be ready like the new SID offices, the athelete dining facility and the Hall of Fame but everything needed for a game will be finished and servicable.

It was a nice piece of fishing by the O.P. It has also happened on GoPowerCat.com which is the main K-State board. Some people just like to inflate their egos by making up stuff and posting it on the internet.

If this happens, I will be taking the whole family down as their will be plenty of cheap tickets! K-State does not travel well to Arrowhead stadium.

the game will 99% be at BSFS... so really no point in discussing.. it's actually ahead of schedule...



but for the record, the reason that two of the best known smaller bcs schools for traveling didn't put many into arrowhead was because of how expensive the game was (therefore no cheap tickets) ... plus arrowhead charges you the nfl price for parking, doesn't open any concessions, isn't allowed to serve beer and generally treats the game like it's a giant nuisance to them...

K-State fans have set records (who knows how legit because how do you really know?) for traveling to bowl games... all arrowhead had to do was act like they were happy to be hosting the game, and that game could have sold out (iowa state fans usually flood kc for games as well)

There are only two college stadiums I need to watch a game in before I die, I've already been to plenty in the Fargodome, the other, is Notre dame Stadium, the house that Rockne built.

Notre Dame literally had the worst possible matchup for them. I think had they played Georgia, Oregon, or Kansas State, they would have won....or at the very least have had a close game.

The playoff system...as it gets slowly expanded..is gonna be awesome!

Then it wouldnt have been the championship game would it? Hell you may well pit them against UND. They should beat them shouldnt they? They could fight over whose Logo is it really. LOL

You might have beat K State...but Georgia was basically only a step behind Alabama and Oregon was way too fast for ND. It will be an interesting year for ND with yet another new QB...now the Gholston is academically ineligible. To ND's credit they take the academics side very seriously. If he doesn't get his stuff turned around, he will be the starting QB somewhere else.

uga and bammer were clearly the best two teams in the country. nd was a fraud.

My buddy called the KState football office and posted the convo on Facebook...



I just talked to Linda at the K-State ticket office and asked what she knew about rumors that the first game of the season is going to move to Kansas City because they won't be done with renovations?? Linda: "Not going to happen. The football game will be played here" Me: "Where is here? "Manhattan? K-State" Linda: "Yes, without a doubt, renovations will be done" Me: "So I don't need to worry about getting rooms in Kansas City?" Linda: "Yep, you are good to go."

[tmcats]

this whole idea that k-state would be playing any games at arrowhead this year due to construction issues was bogus from the get-go. someone here spending way too much time on squawk boards.

This makes me laugh since the "rumor" was information provided by K State fan, and verified by another K State fan..interesting isnt
It makes no difference to me with the moved trip date, but I could have stayed FREE in KC...

Not gonna deny that the rumor has not been around on the K-State boards but it's never been taken seriously by anyone that paid any attention whatsoever to the construction cams, videos or has actually seen it with their own eyes. The "K State fans" referenced above were most likely on a fishing expedition.

And, yes, this thread as given me a chuckle or two.

On my trip to KS to handle some housing things this weekend, I was quite surprised to see the tollway and how much it costs to get between cities on I-70. Cost me $1.75 to get from KC to Lawrence. How much is it to Manhattan?

$2.25 from the eastern terminal to the East Topeka terminal where I-70 leaves the turnpike and heads on west. Certainly not out of line with other toll roads I've been on around the country but if you want to save the money you could take US 24 to Topeka and then I-70. But be aware it's mostly two lane and a much slower journey.

So it ends in Topeka? I haven't seen a toll road that wasn't easily avoidable before.

[Hammerhead]

It cost over $10 to take the toll roads to make a round trip from our hotel near DFW to Frisco.

The KTA turns to the southwest at Topeka towards Emporia. I-70 continues west from Topeka as a free interstate. At Emporia the KTA joins I-35 and proceeds to Wichita and the Oklahoma state line. The KTA was built 1954 - 1956 before I-70 was built.

[SDbison]

I drove on tollways all over DFW and Frisco in my own vehicle this past January and never received any tollway bills even though they want you to believe out of state plates will be photographed and bills sent out.

For those of you planning to make the trip, you'd be smart to also book rooms in Kansas City. You can always cancel 24 hours ahead of time if you don't use them. Why you ask? Because it's going to take a minor miracle to have the stadium ready on time. K-State has reached an agreement on first right of refusal on some dates with the Chiefs and there is a very good chance the first few games will be hosted at Arrowhead Stadium. Don't expect anyone at K-State to comment on it, and no one at the Chiefs will go on record about it, either. But it's no skin off your back to have a backup plan in place. Use this time to find good deals and that way you're not caught with your pants down some August.

Boom you are a Bison fan now sucka!!

My next-door neighbor works as an electrician on the stadium project. He spent Memorial Day and pretty much every waking hour working on the stadium. When I asked him if the project is on schedule, he just laughed. He said it's behind and Arrowhead is the contingency plan for up to the first 4 games.
I'd be all for having the game at Arrowhead.

The above quotes are the evidence from which we are drawing our conclusions. If you had people on the ground in Fargo, why wouldn't you believe them?
