    Default Tailgating For Spring Game

    What does everyone think about tailgating for the Spring Game ?

    I called an NDSU official about tailgating for the basketball games and was told you can tailgate all you want for sporting events HOWEVER - adult beverages would be at your own risk. They only designate certain events for full blown tailgating that requires Security to be present. My opinion on Spring Football Tailgating :

    Charge the normal fees per space to the west lot for tailgating.
    Money made should be more than enough to pay Security.
    I would think NDSU would have money in the bank after paying for services.
    Could very well draw more people to the spring game, which means more money in the bank from the spring sale and luncheon.
    It is just plain fun, I would think alot of people in Fargo would be about do for a little get together after this nightmare spring.
    I cant wait until fall to have some of BisonGuys famous ribs.
    Entertainment factor of LakesBison is worth the price of admission.

    Am hoping the people here on Bisonville that have influence with NDSU and would like to see this and partake, contact the proper people at NDSU and run it by them for consideration.

    Honest question, do a lot of people go to the spring game? I've never been to one, so don't know if its well-attended at NDSU.

    Seems like it could be made into a nice little event though....if its a nice day and you got someone like Famous Dave's to set up a little stand in the corner of the lot and offer a decent deal to get students to come over and check it out it could be a lot of fun.

    Heck, get some local, desperate-for-attention band to set up and play for an hour without pay and you are all set!

    One side of the dome was maybe 1/4-1/3 full last year and there weren't any people in the end zones or other side of the field. It is a TON of fun though and tailgating would make the spring game the ultimate. The auctions would get more exposure, driving prices up and creating more revenue too. It's fun to see the stuff they sell there.

    LET'S GET THIS DONE!

    Personally, I'll just be happy if they have a spring game this year...
