Re: 2017 Tailgating Changes
No surprise we were denied. Included in the email though was this nugget "Your name will remain on the wait list for the 2018 season as we continue to look for more space to tailgate where alcohol can be permitted." That's the first time I've seen anything from NDSU acknowledging that they want to add alcohol tailgating, so that's a plus.
We were lucky enough to find someone who knew they wouldn't be going to any games and didn't think they'd have enough points to get spots sell us the 4 spots they got for this year for basically face value, that's a win for our group too. Hopefully we can keep those next year or get lucky enough to get our own.
The other note from the email is that there will be a tailgate pass exchange setup online through www.ndsuathleticfund.com. I assume the ticket exchange here will be another good spot for that.

I noted that too in my personal rejection. Yes, very positive to publicly say something for the first time. This is progress.

We should see this as a wink-wink-nudge-nudge to start harassing city leaders. Wish NDSU could have had this in place before going this route, but everything is a process.

I didn't. Friend high up did so I am okay. Do I still think as a whole NDSU has made a mess of this, will have a fiasco in the fall, and are spineless? Yes.

When in one post you say youre in and another you say you got rejected how in the hell did I know the answer? You didnt quantify HOW you got in by somebody elses coat tails.
Fact is when it comes to this subject you cant help but be a snarky bitch. Theres no reason to make excuses. You just cant help yourself. :biggrin:
