I have to think having students around Aggieville really ups the atmosphere, but I like the idea of FattyFest being to be a reason to "get away" to Manhattan during the summer.

This is a good point.  What do you think about a mid-to-late April slot to try to do it when Manhattan's still live but also when people wouldn't have been there for a while?

I think that's better than fall imo. Plus, no one gets married in the spring. rough ridin' weddings man.

If the consensus continues to be that we don't need a sports game as part of this, and that officially going hard for 5 hours followed by keep-pak'n-if-you-want is enough of an event, this could be a really good option.  Need more input on April (people probably wouldn't have been to Manhattan for a while) vs. October-ish (probably more lively town but maybe tough for people already committed to lots of home game travel).

75% is a pretty high number bub so ill take that with a grain of salt, still have no idea what that has to do with the people that show up. it sounds like you are boycotting it if anything, which is fine you're an adult. i just don't see how telling a potential person not to go because of who is there as helping

TO ALL THE LURKERS AND BARELY POSTERS PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY NICE IRL AT FF

fine with either spring or fall, don't think sports tie-in necessary (not sure how much focused 'game watching' occurred, but i also got a ride home from some random chicks near the dorms on the walk home because i was an embarrassing mess and they felt sorry for me so like 1/10th vote)

These donations could easily be raised by at least 5% next year with a bigger audience, with a new campaign manager if you guys really care about it. :th_twocents:

I definitely want to keep the tradition of gratuities (?) being stuffed in KK's shirt at the end, but it's clear we need a tip jar out all day next year.

If it was held at spring game weekend I'm quite sure a large portion wouldn't GAF about going to the actual spring game.

I also think it wouldn't hurt if you did it in KC or Wichita, etc. Mix it up.

Agreed, but the spring game’s existence in town would needlessly add an element of difficulty in scheduling.  If spring game was at 6-ish instead of 1-ish, having FattyFest that day could be great.

The thing we’d have to consider with a separate April date is if people would actually be traveling to the spring game and then be hesitant to travel to MHK on another weekend so close in time.

If spring, do it while el tourny is going on but at a date when people for sure wouldn't be traveling for the cats so like second weekend?

I don't think many here make a special trip to the spring game and its likely if FF was scheduled, they would choose that over a spring game trip.

Also, an April Saturday would allow for a Royals watch party that night (for those that care to partake) and those games are almost always at 6:00 pm. To many around here, that would be a good time as well.

I'm actually getting pretty excited about the possibility of a fine FF afternoon followed by watching the Roys with a bunch of gE buds. (The Royals thread is the most popular thread on this blog by over 40K replies!).

I like this. Regional weekend is a known schedule and usually one of the first good weather weekends
