A UNC grad whose company has a hand in designing their uniforms (or at least they have in the past, dunno what UNC's current deal entails).

Seriously, they got this guy to do the NC State/Louisville coin toss? Why?

12/5/2011 1:54:34 PM

we should start a "SHUT OUT" or "FLAG SHIP" chant when they introduce this guy and he walks onto the field. b/c fuck that guy, and fuck unc.

12/5/2011 2:56:39 PM

I ll be representin in sec 540. Visitor side i know i know...but the seating options were a bit better on that side for my group size. Here's to hoping we re not surrounded by pricks .

12/5/2011 8:34:37 PM

Do people from Louisville actually get riled up when the S is pronounced?

12/5/2011 9:27:00 PM

12/5/2011 9:30:57 PM

Anyone know what sections the student tickets will be? I am looking into the 200's but I think 300 or 100 will be better...

12/5/2011 10:29:01 PM

Considering there were absolutely 0 tickets available in the upper deck endzones on ticketmaster...I'm assuming students are getting screwed

yes

12/6/2011 7:47:58 AM

I wonder if a sign that spells out Louisville with a big block S in the middle would tick them off or just confuse them.

If I had artistic talent, I'd make it and have the loui_ville look cracked and broken like the S smashed through it.

12/6/2011 7:52:07 AM

no chance in hell i'm spending $40 a piece for upper level tickets to this game.

there will be tickets for $10 all over the street.

buddy- they are going to tarp the upper endzones as they know there will be no where near the amount of fans needed to fill up those sections...so they are putting people on the upper sidelines

Section 515 Row 32 seats 21-24
That is 3rd row from top but it is midfield. We are staying in a hotel right by the stadium.

12/6/2011 8:50:46 AM

still trying to figure out if I want to request WPC tickets or just buy some there...

Request Pros:
Guaranteed seat
Probably a decent seat
Probably a club level seat

Request Cons:
Probably pay more than I have to
Potentially no control over what seats I get
"Locked" into tickets; potential for bad weather ruining the day, thus harder to sell tickets

12/6/2011 8:56:07 AM

More like: LOOSERVILLE!

12/6/2011 8:56:58 AM

^^that's not necessarily true about club level seats....I know someone in the top 1000 of the WPC and the seats they have gotten in the past have been mediocre at best...The top donors tend to buy a lot of tickets to bowl games..especially charlotte.

[Edited on December 6, 2011 at 8:58 AM. Reason : df]

12/6/2011 8:58:16 AM

^WPC rank is high enough for club level seats; gotten them in the past no problem.

12/6/2011 9:01:07 AM

i am in the top 3500 and I've gotten shitty seats many times...i hope you get lucky

12/6/2011 9:05:09 AM

in the top 1000 easily.

12/6/2011 9:06:27 AM

nice...you'll be fine then probably

I hadn't thought of that...but i don't understand why they wouldn't just tarp off the top half of the section and leave the lower rows for sale. The lower row seats in the endzone seem like they'd be better than sitting in the highest row of some of the sideline sections.

12/6/2011 9:22:48 AM

It's about how it looks on TV. It's easy to just tarp off the upper deck in the end zones because the only end zone shots you'll get are during kicks and they usually use a lower angle for that.

But shots of the entire side of the stadium are common, and tarping the upper levels there will be obvious.

Also, given the choice if you're sitting in the upper deck would you really rather sit behind the goalposts or behind the sideline?

12/6/2011 9:32:47 AM

I want to go to the game, but due to some in-laws visiting, I may not be able to make it. I assume it'll be easy to scalp tickets if I do decide to go last minute? Any chance Louisville will bring a big crowd?

12/6/2011 11:31:26 AM

Gonna be easy as fuck to scalp. Pm me for the good spots. I know the area around that stadium like the nape of gunzz' neck.

[Edited on December 6, 2011 at 11:34 AM. Reason : x]

12/6/2011 11:34:01 AM

my priority Silver Club seats, if I wanted them, are almost $400 a piece for this game.

screw that, i'll scalp nose bleeders

Loserville Tardinals

I saw that on the comments section of an ESPN article once, and I chuckled.

12/6/2011 1:56:06 PM

Alexander Julian designed the first Charlotte Hornets uniforms...can't hate on him too much

12/6/2011 2:11:37 PM

He also designed the vomit colored seat patterns at the Knights Stadium, so yes you can

12/6/2011 2:13:15 PM

Tickets purchased... sec. 515, row 2. Should make for a nice view of everything.

Go Pack!

12/6/2011 2:14:56 PM

he also built the 4-wheeler that Homer rides around the warning track every game after the 1st inning, so can't really hate much

12/6/2011 2:16:38 PM

HE ALSO DESIGNED THIS SWEATER, SO YES YOU CAN

12/6/2011 2:40:36 PM

Well, to be fair it doesn't really roll off of the tongue.

Something more than one syllable would probably sound better.

But screw them about the Beef O'Brady's Bowl. That's an awesome name simply saddled with being located in St. Pete.
