stadium is garbage.  no question.  but, let's all stop pretending we don't wish BSFS was located on our campus.  yes, tailgating is fun.  But, all things being equal, I'd prefer to tailgate in City Park, and/or party in Aggieville and walk to games at Old Stadium.  IMHO.       

The stadium is on campus, and lots of people walk from Aggieville to the stadium. Those that don't walk take a 5 minute free bus ride :dunno:

Yeah, I wish the stadium was closer to Aggieville, but why does it matter how close it is to campus? Games are on Saturdays. Anyway, KU doesn't even have anything remotely resembling Aggieville, let alone a stadium that's close to it.

And do people actually walk from the 'ville to the game? Seems like a good way to walk off a perfectly good buzz. I remember walking to Aggieville after a few games - that's a different story.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning.  They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

yeah it's not exactly difficult to get to the stadium from the ville.  it's an easy walk through our great campus or a quick free bus ride.   :dunno:

Amazing walk from the 'Ville to the Bill or vice versa. Should not be missed.

It's the programs and people.  If everything was the same, but the stadium setting situations were reversed, K-State's would be fun and ku's would suck.  At K-State, we'd have all these great PAKs in gE'rs' houses

Fact. Haverhill hosted a great pregame Pak in his apartment.



Worst example ever.

Nope was fun.

That's great, Scottwildcat, but we have different tastes.  I don't think haverhill or calling black soccer players "monkeys" is much fun.  To each his own.

so no one is going to comment on this...   :Wha:

I don't think many people get the reference. I like Scott and will hopefully pak with him this weekend despite his severely poor rough ridin' decision making and mindset this isolated time, so I won't link it.

This is a perfect example of getting a break for saying stupid stuff because of making the small effort of meeting people IRL. If he never did I'm sure he'd still have "racist piece of crap" under his name, let this be a lesson to everyone pak'n has its benefits.

It is impossible to over  hype " the setting"  and their tailgating more than Jayhawk  fans do.  Impossible.

You caught a break by having their overpaid basketball team get beat the night before.  You haven't experienced a game in lowrents without getting the obligatory "Yeah, well were gonna kick your ASSES in basketball" from some drunk 12-year-old as you leave the game. That's always fun.   :jerk:

I once blew clove smoke in a guy's face that cut in front of me in the line to KJ's.

That stadium is an absolute disaster.  No fixing it. It must be leveled.

The catilac trailer thing, the 3 ft high deck camera bay things, the locker rooms around the corner, the north seats 80 yards from the field of play, the stained bare concrete, the horrendous concourse and fire escape staircases to access the sections, the unbelievably poor infrastructure. It goes on and on.  Any renovation that's not a tear down rebuild is poor people money after bad.
