    Why do you think the tailgate decision was delayed?

    Because it wasn’t included in release of Spring Game details as it had been in the past. Don’t even start with this, Pat. I don’t think it’s coincidence that it came out a day or so after I talked with a Matt Lien directly two times about it and informed him that fans/TMs were wondering and upset.

    I always figured it was a given that there would be a tailgate considering all the activities that were planned. The other possibility was they were waiting to see IF there really going to be a spring game considering all of the surgerys. I dont think the decision was delayed in as much as the announcement depending on circumstances.

    Doesn’t make sense—once they knew there was gonna be a game, why not tailgate with the original release. I’m not sure whether they appreciate fully the camaraderie that is developed among fans/TMs during tailgate. It’s our chance to share thoughts, memories, etc., and it, IMO, motivates people to donate. Consider how much is made just with 50/50 raffle.

    Plus I can give SDBison shit about him not donating enough to really have a voice!! Blah!!!!

    Swanson's last day in the Athletic Department was 3/30. So no, I think it is unrelated to the tailgating conspiracy.

    Right, and the SG in 4/20. If he was in charge of organizing, implementing and overseeing, then his departure and no one hired to fill his position wouldn’t be “unrelated”. And I’m not suggesting there was a “conspiracy”, I’m saying NDSU may have had a legit reason not to want to deal with SG tailgating.

    Agreed. Either they dropped the ball, or there was intent. Maybe they were going to try to get away from having to hire security for the parking lot by not advertising it?

    The spring game plans were announced well before his departure.

    Good God, do I have to spell it out completely? They knew he was leaving and that the position wouldn't be filled or would be filled with by someone who had never handled TG before. Couple that with the fact the SG announcement was well before his departure buttresses my position as apposed to undermining it.

    Here--> Swanson/his position in charge of all things tailgate for SG. He wasn't going to be available to organize, implement and or oversee it, and his position would not be filled before hand, or would be filled with someone who has never handled TG before and would have a very short period of time to get everything in place. Hence, nothing about tailgating with original SG announcement/info. release, because they didn't have anyone to get it done.

    NOT THAT DIFFICULT!!

    I'm not dumb and I don't buy it. People leave positions all the time. Life goes on. Other people fill in.
