The KU Rayhawks are NOT going through a rough patch. They make Raytown, Missouri proud!

Obviously we need more sidewalks.

I'm just happy they can break these things down objectively.

I am from Nebraska and the walk from house parties, the reservation, or the bottoms up to Memorial in Lincoln is what makes game day special. People walk the sidewalks and streets together and they have been doing it like that for a long time.

this is a good comparison. memorial in lincoln is like a jumbo sized equally shitty memorial in lawrence.

Had a convo with a KU fan once that said Arrowhead/Kauffman have the best professional tailgating/gameday experience because of the lots, open space, etc. But would turn around and say a college tailgating/gameday experience is completely different and that K-State's is terrible because it's just parking lots, open space, etc. and KU's is better.... was mind bottling

Why?  It makes sense.

[cfbandyman]

Pros sports are known for their big expansive well thought out areas. College sports should be crowded, dark, dank, and smell of piss.

[star seed 7]

All manners of tailgating are vastly overrated, so this discussion is stupid.

[The Big Train]

Tailgating doesn't have an appealing appearance apparently, guys

Walking into the stadium in Nebraska is the rough ridin' worst.

Walking into the stadium in Nebraska is the rough ridin' worst.

Everything except the fan dedication at that stadium is the worst. I was seriously blown away how shitty it was. That's an honest assessment. I expected ti to be totally dope.

But when half the stands are in teh endzones, seats are directly behind columns, bathrooms are a disgusting joke, etc, etc, etc, it makes for a pretty poor setup. The atmosphere is good though.

Not that I disagree with how overrated tailgating is, but it's amazing to learn that everyone going to the game at Kstate tailgates in the parking lot.

I have to go to at least one game per season. It's the least favorite day of my year. Lol at thinking Nebraska has a good pregame atmosphere.

They park their trucks underneath a highway overpass and pretend like they have a good time. If it's cold they pack into the holiday Inn lobby and act like it's the greatest rough ridin' thing in the world.

I generally think things involving booze is at least a decent time, and if we're talking day drinking in nice weather w/ friends, I'm in. Cold weather tailgating is pretty bleh.

I did not read whatever article was about the "upgrades" to Memorial Stadium (KU). What lipstick are they preparing to slap on that pig?

Nothing yet, but they hired a guy to raise money for the undisclosed upgrades. I assume like ours but lots better since they bided their time to evaluate everything.

Fun Fact: I used to walk through neighborhood to get to kstate games.

Funner Fact: driving to the game is better

Before female athletes at the University of Kansas begin their academic careers they're taught to submit to the school's male athletes, according to a lawsuit filed against KU by Daisy Tackett, a former rower for KU.

I have long favored shuttering the athletic department at KU, but I think the whole university needs to go at this point. Maybe the entire city of Lawrence, potentially Douglas County.

When will KU realize women aren't property/things?
