Btw...I also acknowledged we disagreed way back in a previous post. And, I was not trying to guilt you personally, but I would sure as hell would use the fact ndsu gave athletes the tools and opportunity tools to develop into a proper person as a reason they should give back... Absolutely. That's what we do right, I mean it's bigger than just the game.....that's what we are told anyway. That's what I hear everyone saying.
    Also, You also asked about my fundraising experience....not much I guess....a few years on a university committee, another year on a corporation's charitable giving team and I belong to a few orginzatizations were we raise $$$ for a hospital and some local causes, but your right nothing professional, but it's not like I am 100% clueless either.

    So, yes we disagree. Now gtfo my lawn and btw see u at the next TM luncheon

    Btw....i am on my phone and can't see wtf I type without saving and going back and forth so I have to keep updating my previous post to get it how I want.....sorry I keep updating so much


    Ps get rid of the phone.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    Check out the Jacks board. 15 pages on selling alcohol at Dykshorn as the "savior" to declining attendance. Surprised that hasn't surfaced in this thread. Maybe Bisonville must not have enough "Joose" with the State Legislature to even suggest this.
    Damn, I'm Good!

    It's funny. I bought a beer at Western Illinois because of the novelty of it. Didn't even really want it.

    I'm sure alcohol sales wouldnt HURT. Just dont know how much it would actually help attendance. IDK, I hear alot of people hit up bars in the 2nd half? Maybe a handful of them would stay a bit longer if they could grab a drink at the game.

    Would probably help the Fargodome Bottom Line though. I hope in all of the concourse work that the Dome is looking to do, that they can maybe get a premium food/drink offering for people with deep pockets. at the Ralph they have those 2 premium bars/clubs in the upperdeck etc
    1. The FCS was the Best option for NDSU for a very long time.
    2. As a general rule- the FCS sucks at football and has proven that is not committed to football at all.
    3. It's time to go FBS

    I agree. My thoughts are, a grown man should be able to buy a beer.

    Honestly no idea. But the only program that I know of that has LOST money on alcohol sales is #RowtheboatU
