I would go to the wedding if I was allowed to bring my rough ridin' kid!  :shakesfist:

The people at the wedding who brought their kids looked miserable in comparison to those who left theirs at home with a babysitter  :th_twocents:

A couple from Nebraska was watching the Nub-Wisky game on their phone during the wedding reception I was at on Saturday. Had the Cats been playing I would have done the same thing.

It's not that couples who decide to get married during football season are bad people, but rather it's that they are oblivious and selfish.

This. 

And, thanks for missing the point Officer Daris... Football season is roughly 12 weeks long, thus leaving another 40 weeks for the oblivious and selfish wenches of the world to choose to have their "celebrations of an important life event".

if you ever plan a wedding you would realize how rough ridin' Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) it is to on-purpose avoid college football games. good grief.  :ROFL:

It's really not that hard... Roughly 75-80% of the weekends annually have ZERO college football games occurring.  Fall weddings are the work of the devil.

why anyone would want to be around their girlfriend and the people that she is closest with in a celebration of bringing two individuals together in love and then drink and dance and eat food is beyond me. HEY WHAT CHANNEL IS THE WASHINGTON STATE GAME ON? IT'S PART OF MY THREE TEAM TEASER AND I'M ALREADY DOWN $250 FOR THE DAY!  :curse:

Don't play exotics, especially multi-team teasers, and you won't lose so much money...  HTH

Just another example of Nebraska's struggle to remain relevant. One post from WC is all it took for us to realize that arguing about fall weddings was more fun than talking about Nebraska football.

Everyone needs to realize the good wedding venues cost more during normal wedding season.  Fall weddings = huge bargain

Fall birthday's are great because once in every blue moon your birthday will be on a gameday and the party doesn't stop, no, no, no it doesn't.  :emawkid:

Do some of you guys watch football all day Saturday every Saturday from September until new years? That seems like a lot of work honestly.

yeah it's the best sport and it's very important to know who is relevant in it and who isn't. being serious.

my dad (wsu alum) bailed on the wedding of a close family friend b/c it was the same weekend the shockers were playing in the final four.  On the one hand it seemed kind of petty, on the other, it was literally just the 2nd time in his life the shockers had reached the final 4 and the only other time he was too young to remember. 

FWIW the day after my wedding day the shockers were playing at home against the last or second to last place team in the mvc, a game they were sure to win by at least 20 and I'm pretty sure had that completely uninteresting and unimportant game been on my wedding day that my dad would have skipped my wedding too.

No, but the world damn near stops when the Cats are playing. Like Bookie said, you are given 52 Saturdays each year... Be considerate of your guests and avoid the 12 (or in this year's case 10) Saturdays when K-State has a game. It's not that hard. If you threw a dart at a calendar you'd have an 80% chance in 2014 of not having this problem.

Meh, my sister got married during the World Series this year. I missed two games (rehearsal dinner and wedding) it's not that big of a deal. I love sports just as much as everyone else but I'm not going to stop my life to watch some dudes I don't know play a game.
