I will be very excited about the Fiesta Bowl. It's a BCS bowl and we were predicted to finished with a below .500 conference record by most.

Excited enough to go, or excited that we earned the bid?

afraid this is going to be the case with most

Ya, I'll be happy that we got the bid and all, but I won't go to the Fiesta Bowl. Never even reserved a hotel there.

LOL at our fans not being excited enough to travel to the Fiesta Bowl

Many have done the trip more than once, you going?

'taterblast · « **Reply #56 on:** November 18, 2012, 04:47:07 PM »

i'll be wherever we go. more than once, so '97 and '03? seems like a shitty reason to not make the trip in '12.

Not wanting to go to Phoenix three times in recent memory is a shitty reason not to make the trip? What constitutes a good reason in your opinion?

I would be more likely to go to the Fiesta than Miami.

And that's very sensible of you considering where you live, different argument for most K-Staters. It seems emawblast is suggesting that people should spend several hundred dollars of their family's money to make some odd statement of fandom.

I think this will be the case for many.

If we beat Texas, much of the awful feeling many in our fan base has right now will be gone and people will move on. I don't think we'll have any problem getting 12-15K to the Fiesta if we go there.

There will be people with circumstances where going to the Fiesta is more likely than going to Miami, due to location, money, non-football, etc. There won't be more people that go to the Fiesta than would've gone to Miami.

will probably go to fiesta if we make it

Boom Roasted · « **Reply #63 on:** November 19, 2012, 07:29:00 AM »

For sure going to Fiesta if we make it. Will still be a big game in a fun area with plenty of cat fans to Pak with.

I'll be there. I know an 'ole filly that I dated last year who lives down there and is recently married/pregos. I wonder if they would mind if I crashed on their couch? It's worth a shot.

No, it really isn't worth a shot.

we've all had more fun this season than any in recent memory. a loss to baylor can't take that away. 48 hrs ago we're talking about national championships. it's unbelievable and i'm glad we were a part of it.

Not a bad consolation on the line...

Fiesta with Stanford would be outrageously elite.

Love it, _fan. I refuse to let this bring butthurt into my life. Zimmerman has always been a big piece to the puzzle and it showed Saturday. When you're a team that lives off of DITR, this will happen when injuries mount. Snyder will scheme his little heart out for Texas and I'm excited for that game. I still need a dr pepper and I wouldn't mind a few tostitos to go with that.

A elite academic university with a lineage of famous quarterbacks vs a school that looks really taco bell-y.

i just don't want our fans to act disappointed about a BCS game and decide it's not worth it, when we have seemingly traveled so well in our recent history of bowls. i can understand that it is a difficult commitment to make for a lot of families.
