    Single game parking lots for Vandy?

    I was going to post the same question. Does anyone know the general pricing around Bluff Road. It’s been about 4 years since I’ve parked down there, but last time I was over there it was $30 at Bernie’s chicken and $40 close to the Waffle House. I have a bad feeling the prices have spiked in...

    USC paying SC State

    SC State has always been their own entity. They had financial issues in 2015 but they remained independent institution. The State Legislature replaced their Board and that’s about the last I heard of it a decade ago. Historically we’ve paid the in state schools significantly less. SC State and...

    Should it be easier for students to attend football games?

    USC has done really well at giving students tickets. The student section at Williams Brice is a lot bigger than it was pre 2009 (including 2 sections in the East upper deck). It’s also common for them to add sections for basketball when the game isn’t sold out but the student ticket demands...

    Should it be easier for students to attend football games?

    It is a great system. It also boosts attendance at smaller sports like soccer.

    Over the Air (OTA) antenna?

    Occasionally some homes can be stuck in a bit of a dead zone. My brother and I both live in Columbia and he is closer to downtown than I am, but his house is a real struggle to get a TV signal. Idk if it’s the trees outside or the walls of his house. We found the best signal was putting the...

    Football Tickets Face Value

    Dang expensive is the short answer. Single games officially sold by the University through Ticketmaster range from $55 for SC State to $170 for clemson game. It’s a little cheaper for Gamecock Club members, the clemson game is $160 through the club ticket office, etc. The single game tickets...

    First job

    I was lucky to get some work cutting grass or manual labor odd jobs in middle school. I’m a little younger than most folks on this board. In the area where I lived more and more folks (particularly the older neighbors) were hiring professional landscaping companies. By the time I was 16 was able...

    Section 14 football ticket thoughts.....

    The west side is raised up a little more than the east side. Low rows on the east you’re right behind the visitor bench. A lot of folks in that area will be standing to see better. Section 14 is good. Club rep told me that lower bowl sold out this morning. I’m kicking myself for not buying new...

    Hear me out: We host Clemson in playoff??

    Playing (beating) Clemson twice in two weeks would be wild. That playoff game in Willy B would set off the earthquake meter for 3 strait hours.

    Great, not only do we play at noon but

    A lot of people throwing shade at Dabo for not wanting Black Friday. I’m glad the game is on Saturday (when college football games should be). Tiny detail that doesn’t effect the team but is a part of gameday is that USC’s band is in the Macy’s Day parade on Thursday. Playing the game on...

    This football season - regardless of the finish....

    It’s true. Almost no one thought we were winning 8 games this year. 8 was the ceiling. Now entering rivalry week, we have some real possibilities ahead of us. Then of course, if only the LSU game would have been called correctly… Very happy with our team this year. There’s been some dumb stuff...
