Guess you feel your ticket gives you the right to be entertained only.

Maybe I'm a bit too emotional about it, but I think it also gives you the opportunity and obligation to support the team.

Get home early? avoid trafficgeddon? watch the national games on TV that are just ending or just beginning?

I think i know what the teams done. Thanks for the reminder

No problem, I'll clap extra loud to make up for your empty seat next time the Bison close out yet another dominating performance in the dome. I'll watch the sports center highlights of those other games knowing the Bison saw and herd my support at the end of their game.

I do usually stay to the end or a couple minutes left but we don't "owe" the team. It is already a mutually symbiotic relationship. We support them with ticket and merchandise purchases as well as various donations that pay their way to school on top of giving them an electric atmosphere. They, in turn, play hard and provide an excellent weekend hobby/entertainment and excitment for Bison fans. No dues owed here

Call Josh and ask why the tickets dont go on sale after the tues deadline and you would be a buyer.

Thanks man!! Actually you can start doing it by the time the Bison are up by 27 before halftime. Im just a warm body in the seat by then.

The excuse to leave early to avoid traffic makes me laugh. This isn't the Metrodome of old where I could see that excuse. This is Fargo people. Please.

It's like having sex with your long time girlfriend or wife. It's boring, predictable, and no rush or high.

After we Quad, we need to move up and be challenged.

Sounds like a great situation you got there.:facepalm:

Bottom line its a game. Its entertainment. If you choose to attach all of the other emotional attachments then fine. Judging others on their fandom on a list of your expectations for being a fan is some what self righteous. What other fans do or dont do shouldnt be a concern or yours.
If their actions some how impede your game experience then you got something to bitch about. If not enjoy the game and let others enjoy they game the way they want to.
