“ im curious if anyone here knows the history of season tickets/ how ticket prices looked at toomey? missed that whole era”

I was a season ticket holder on the east side of the field starting around the mid 80s. I don’t remember the price, but it was very reasonable. There was no team aggie fee for the better seats. What i do remember, and miss, is that after each home game there was a reception at the faculty club for alumni. They served bbq hot dogs and had a no host bar. Sochor would join us and stand on a chair to address the crowd and analyze the game. To this day my son, now in his 40s, remembers the hot dogs, lol.

this is what I was looking for! so awesome, sounds like such a blast.

I think Chancellor Ted Hullar, who advocated a DI move, needed seats, but the best and very limited wooden seats during Sochor's run were taken on the west side. There were a few small gaps between seat sections. So the campus connected a few rows to add in a handful of needed, prime seats. This actually bent a few people.

The community held a large pregame BBQ / picnic downtown, and I guess many then walked the few blocks to Toomey. No garage.

I think it’s alluding to the saying “keep Tahoe blue” / the fact that we too like blue? He could have tagged Kevin Blue for a triple meaning but that would have been two cryptic tweets too many in the last several months

"...Think Blue" to me means "Go Ags."

is he a Dodger fan?

I do recommend subscribing to them. They focus on the Mountain West, Big10, and PAC.

Now we're talkin'

Been missing in action with stomach flu. Davis students need to use their brains and wash those hands, damn! Looking forward to that interview!

Good find.

"Our ambition is to compete at the highest level possible"

and

Focused on winning a championship at the FCS level.

lol he mentioned fans (likely us) getting riled up about his stadium render tweet.

I know we've moved beyond putting similar schools or even geographically proximate schools in conferences, BUT...keeping all the small private schools in the WCC makes much more sense to me than bringing some of them into the MW.
