Was a great atmosphere for 'cruits to see.
Yes, it was pretty good.
I will be "that guy" and say the half full, post halftime crowd while everyone finishes their beers or whatever is annoying.

It's ridiculous, shameful, embarrassing. It didn't always used to be this way. I hate passouts, it's actually a terrible business practice, fsd is 100% correct.

i'm not going to get mad at people who don't come back in, let alone in time for kick. If they're having a better time in the parking lot than they are inside then good for them. Have fun, but if i was calling the shots, I would sell beer and win in the stadium until the end of the 3rd qtr, and stop allowing reentry.
That's a good take, buddy.

Was having quite a bit of fun with family and friends outside at a tailgate. Cats games and festivities are suppose to be fun and enjoyable. Not some cat tail measuring stick contest
younger me that got really worked up about the cats used to care about dumb stuff like people in the stands to start the 2nd half. older me sometimes won't even make it into the 2nd half if it's not a big game/we're playing like crap/weather related/having fun with friends and family out at the tailgate. people have different priorities on how to use their free time on a weekend, wgaf
These are both fine, literally nothing wrong with them. You can certainly argue what the role of a fan at a sporting event is, but I won't do that. The conversation should be about how ridiculous it is to have pass outs. The rules allow for us to have 15,000 empty seats to open the half against a top 10 team on national television, why blame people taking advantage of what's presented to them?
I also think this is a not all things created equal argument. I have no idea why the east club seats were way under 50% capacity. I also think it's bullshit that at least a thousand students never came back.

It's embarrassing. No doubt about it. The first five minutes of the second half is a crucial point in the game and often times our Cats, at home, are playing in front of a half filled stadium. So happy those that are leaving are "having a great time" chugging a beer or two, good for you....that certainly doesn't take away from the fact that you are shitty fans.

Whether anyone thinks passouts are good or bad is debatable, what's not debatable is coming back late or people not coming back at all in the numbers they currently do is something that has been a much bigger thing the last five years and it's getting more prevalent.

We’ve been on a relative decline over the last 5 years, also attendance at sporting events over almost all leagues and sports has been on decline over the last 5 years. Also instead of relatively improved WiFi signal there has been nothing K-State has done to incentivized attendance or keep attendees in or coming back in.Football used to trump booze and poontang.

Problem with staying in at halftime is the band doesn't do it for me and I'm impatient. Parking lot is way more fun and like 'stone said, it's the easiest place on earth for college students to slay.
I have gone to the concourse for the sole reason of not having to hear the band announcer's voice & inflection.

K-State has sold out for football home games 38 straight.
Also, I think the Wi-Fi is pretty good.
That's just it, the athletic department must think that eliminating pass outs will reduce attendance, I'm not sure that's the case, especially if they sell beer and wine. The concession stands on the west side at halftime are barren, we can walk up and only have to stand in line for five minutes. We are just getting hammered on concession revenue by continuing to allow these things and not selling alcohol.
The WiFi is a 7/10.

I think if you sold Beer and wine in the stadium and eliminated pass outs you would eventually see far more net positives than negatives after the tailgate superstars quit crying.

Lol at equating someone wanting to crush a beer at halftime with friends and family as blackout specialist. Tailgating has always been a big part of the experience. Just because some of you are getting old and forgot how much fun it was to be a student and now you're all tucking away. Even when I'm in the suite I go inside and watch other games on their TV's. There's nothing inside at halftime that's exciting anyone.
1. I'm not criticising tailgaters, I'm criticizing a ridiculous university policy.
2. When I was in college I didn't go back out at halftime, pre and post game was plenty of time to kick it, I went to games to watch games.
3. You and dugout are too old for the "I do it because it was fun when I was in college" argument. There's a whole lot of stuff we don't do that we did a decade or two ago.

That wasn't a direct shot at you. You've been a loyal season ticket holder for a long time with a family. My fam probably gets to catch 2-3 games a year and my bro has to drive up from Louisiana. Which means he buys his tickets way too early in advance and is afraid Mrs wacky's fam won't come through. So sometimes we get separated during game time, because we're in different sections. We're there for the cats, but a family and friends gathering as well.
And you’d still be able to meet at the Tallgrass vendor in the south end zone and have a couple 8-Bits with your family and friends at half time. Which comes back to what I think MIR and I have been saying: it would be a net positive if they sold Beer and wine in the stadium and stopped the pass out rules.

I agree with this because the price of a beer in a stadium setting is crazy and it just means that they will find a reasonable stopping point than going out and slamming a 30 pack.i don't think we'll see in stadium beer sales anytime soon because they don't want a bunch of drunk idiots spilling beer on little kids, which i don't blame them #family.Many of the schools that allow beer sales in the stadium have reported a decrease in alcohol related incidents.

what is your definition of "a lot" in this conversation?
Post by: catastrophe on October 25, 2017, 12:43:10 PM
I can understand a student with the mentality that they need to take advantage of those 20 minutes between halves by running out and downing as many beers as they can (although I never did, and this was during all of the Prince years), but I think the adults should know better. As MIR said, you have as much time as you want before and after the game. If I could watch the Cats play with a frosty 8-bit in hand I'd never want to leave the stadium.
Catch up with your friends before and after the game. Make some new ones during.

I've gone out to the lot like 2 or 3 times in my life (probably around 140 games attended at the Bill) to get a beer.

This describes me pretty well. Anytime a cats game is on I want to be watching it, and being away from it makes me anxious AF, unless we are smashing or being smashed.
I also don't care to drink before games I go to. I am more than fine w/ tailgating but I can probably count the amount of times I have been drunk at a game on one hand. And all those times I don't recall myself enjoying the experience (this includes a 2010 UCLA game win). I think for me it's the bad mix of anxiety, desire to focus on the game (which being drunk removes pretty much removes any desire for me to focus on anything) that makes me not want to.

Grabbing a couple bud lights at halftime makes the experience more fun. If the stadium doesn't look or sound right based in part to my absence, then that's too bad.
K-State should figure out a way to make inside more fun than outside.

I'm sure those that leave at half share your opinion, and that's perfectly fine. It's your right to enjoy the game (or not) however you want so long as you aren't disturbing others. That said, you've given a perfect definition of "shitty fan". The game itself isn't more important or "more fun" than chugging a few bud lights. I wish there were more people who thought the game was more fun than slamming a few beers because i think it would help our team during those important first 5 minutes of the second half. I'm selfish like that :)

This would be my exact attitude if I wasn’t much of a KSU football fan. And it makes perfect sense for any games where I don’t particularly care about the team or sport. Like if I went to a KSU baseball game I would probably do the exact same thing and I’m sure people who are really into the sport would be pissed/annoyed at me too.
I guess when you get down to it that is what frustrates those of us bitching about the crowd. We just wish the stadium was full of Cats football fans. I know some people buy tickets for other reasons and it is what it is.

If people want to leave the stadium and socialize with their buddies then awesome. If they want to pound beers cool. That doesn’t make them alcoholics. They’re maximizing their fun within the rules allowed by K-State and the stadium they operate.

I’m not going to paint him into a box, and I’m not going to tell people what they should or shouldn’t do inside of the rules K-State has and I think the argument of if fans should or shouldn’t leave at half time under the guidelines is stupid. The conversation should be if the rule should be changed to maximize revenue at the stadium and increasing the desire to stay in the stadium.

As for me, I never leave. I get to go to maybe six or seven games per year. I can hang out with family or friends virtually any other day. If I'm going to spend thousands on donations and tickets, it's not going to be so that I can watch part of a game. I love tailgating before the games, and we often times sit around and knock back a couple more afterwards while waiting for the lots to clear, but during? I just don't see the appeal. To each their own, but that's just not for me.

I do stand the whole game, and I cheer real loud and slap hands with everyone around me when the cats make a great play, but otherwise I'm standing there with my arms crossed and freak out quietly to myself. I might yell the first couple defensive drives and the occasional critical 3rd down
Post by: cDubya on October 25, 2017, 07:54:41 PM
i'm not going to get mad at people who don't come back in, let alone in time for kick. If they're having a better time in the parking lot than they are inside then good for them. Have fun, but if i was calling the shots, I would sell beer and win in the stadium until the end of the 3rd qtr, and stop allowing reentry.Yeah, this works well for WVU. Student section is getting absolutely crap on this year, though. Whole stadium is full on national television and then they pan to the enormous student section in the 3rd qtr and its a ghost town. Pretty embarrassing.

It'd be cool if KSU had enough demand for tickets to price out those that are there as a gathering and not to cheer on the cats. Maybe someday.

I'm p weird bc on the one hand I find it irritating when the stade is only 1/2 full for the start of the second half -- esp when it could be drives that seize momentum, but on the other hand I know I don't provide much to the home field advantage.

Very similar. I used to lose my voice, but I don't do that anymore. I suppose if you miss half the 3rd Q slamming beers, but are really loud when you are in the Bill, you might be a "better" fan than me.
Post by: 420seriouscat69 on October 25, 2017, 07:58:41 PM
I give myself headaches from all of my yelling. I cheer super loud for Duuuuuke. I also call the other team cheaters from time to time. Other fun things.It's hard to take you serious at times.

This made me laugh irl. This is exactly me. My wife never understands why i'm not going crazy after we score and i try to explain it's because i'm already freaked out about the next series...i don't have time to celebrate, I need this time to have a quick panic attack before we kick off.

How large is the Cats student section? WVU has 12500 for students. That is absolutely nuts, especially given their piss poor attendance.White sections. I sit in section 23 like a boss. DUUUUKKKKKEEEEEEE! Seriously Duke is the best player on the team.

Standers are fine I guess, I mean none of us stand while watching the game in our living room. It's the two dudes standing alone that bothers me. I have the urge to buy one of those giant stade cups full of Dr. P and throw it at their backs.

Listen, man. There were years (when we were really bad) where I was a "great fan" to the point of compulsion. To the point where I was staying up all night on tuesday because I was nervous for the game on saturday.I go to the games only to have fun. Not out of a sense of obligation or loyalty to k-state or anything.
Grabbing a couple bud lights at halftime makes the experience more fun. If the stadium doesn't look or sound right based in part to my absence, then that's too bad.

I'm selfish like that :)
I've done the hyper-intensive-fan thing, and one day i realized that crap is for the birds. If I'm spending 10 hours hauling my ass to MHK and back to watch a mediocre team play football, and I want a beer at halftime and chill at the tailgate for a little bit, I'm doing it.
And you know what I learned after becoming a "shitty fan"? The wins are no less sweet. The losses hurt a lot less. And at the 8 or 9 minute mark of the 3rd quarter, I've got a healthy buzz.
Post by: nicname on October 26, 2017, 04:23:48 AM
As for missing action -- to each their own imo. I usually just stay/stayed through halftime or brought a flask in. No one is obligated to stick around or even show up.
As for passouts and selling beer in the stadium. They should probably allow both. Definitely allow the sale of booze.
This coming from a guy who's pretty apathetic these days tho. I mean, I'm often not even awake for the start of our shitty 11 am games.

I’m honestly a little jealous. I wish I could feel like it was really my team and fully enjoy all the wins without being bothered by the losses. I’m already at the point of not caring about baseball losses, so if I could just feel as satisfied with those wins as I do after a FB game, that would be magical. And I’ve got the enjoying wins part down for FB, but the losses still hurt like a mother.
Teach me to become a shitty fan, Dlew.

The weather and game were completely miserable. Worst combination of the two since OU on 2013. OU '15 was a horrific combo too but it was much colder in '13.

No one cheered for the highlight :cry: the most underrated game in K-State history, thanks OU :curse:
I did. That's one of the best home games I've ever attended.

That was my first freshman year, had crap tons of fun at that game and that night. They tore down the unbreakable goalpost :surprised:
It took soooooo long, it became tedious.

no weather was worse than the 1994 “Nebraska is still Nebraska, and K-State is still K-State." 10:30 kickoff in the icy rain game
Correct.

The stadium wouldn't be this empty if people actually thought we were going to win.

That one was bad but there was actually a Thursday night Iowa state game two years earlier that was worse. Windy with freezing rain.

In case you were wondering, nobody ordered the Kite's burger.

I've been to games when we were good, playing in garbage weather with bad second half attendance.

Iowa State is synonymous with terrible weather. My first Iowa State game was in 1996 and there was freezing rain at that game, there were absolutely no more than 250 students at the game when it was over. Who could forget how awful that 2011 game was. First it was delayed then it was cold, wet, sleety, just the worst. The '15 game was only cold but I had to drive through a legit blizzard to get to the game.
