    Ok. I’ll tee this one up……..

    After 9/11 all of the airports nation wide shut down for two days. I made a business trip from Jackson to Dallas, on 9/13 when they reopened. I was not excited about flying that day! My early early morning flight must have been one of the first to come in to DFW airport. There was almost no...

    Why I Hate White Outs!

    I'll start. Because we can look like the other teams 17 fans! So... Just say NO!

    How the 17 do you keep squirrels….

    Years ago, I tried trapping them and releasing them far away. I gave up after I caught about 20 in one month, So, I made a squirrel spinner like this, for them instead. It's mildly entertaining to see them learn to fly. It takes a little time to get the balance right. The dried corn should...

    For those upset about UT fans filling seats...

    My wife and I are both faculty, so we each purchased two tickets and brought our family. No, we don't have to show an ID. Yes, I would have preferred that as a solution. Instead, we've cut back to two season tickets because of the increased cost. Now we just buy extra tickets on the open...

    For those upset about UT fans filling seats...

    Not sure of the details. But I believe it's BC rank. When I was hired 19 years ago I got put on a waiting list to buy faculty tickets. I started regular donations before I could even get basketball season tickets at all. I've always bought season tickets to all men's and women's sports, so...

    For those upset about UT fans filling seats...

    Past doesn't matter because this year is different. Faculty prices went up! I dropped half of my season tickets because of it. FYI, next year the 2026 ticket price for faculty in section 21 will be raised to $610 including BC donation. Non-faculty seats next door, in section 20, will be...

    Faculty Tickets

    FYI, the 2026 ticket price for faculty in section 21 will be raised to $610 including BC donation. Non-faculty seats in section 20 will be $700. So, our employee discount is only $90. Do you hate the faculty so much that you want to take that too?

    Faculty Tickets

    Moving faculty and staff won't solve anything. The problem is that MSU fans won't buy tickets.... Obviously the easy fix is to just require an MSU ID for entry with a Faculty/Staff ticket. Well.... at least I found out how much Six Pack hates MSU faculty and staff!

    Faculty Tickets

    Why do you have some much hate for MSU faculty and staff? I've attached the new policy letter we received, so that everyone can see the truth. My wife is staff too, for over 20 years. Were not rich. This was a great job perk of significant cash value. We had 6 tickets and brought family and...

    Another big 17 you to our faculity

    Faculty seats are a job perk. They are just an incentive to attract and retain talent. Cutting or down grading perks has the same effect on employee attitudes as cutting pay. The University should just offer faculty choice of the ticket discounts, or the cash value of fifty yard line seat...

    Tate Reeves calling a special session…

    Have we all forgotten the Obama Green Energy scams where Mississippi tax payers got hosed? Does this EV Battery plant have the same game plan? - Green Tec Auto - Produced nothing but Green Cards for Chinese investors - $$$ - STION Solar panels - $$$$$ - KIOR Bio Fuels - $$$$$$$$$ - Kemper Co...

    Robbie Faulk did a walk through of the hump…

    Rich people got some good stuff. The rest of us got fresh paint!

    Have there been any Hump picture updates?

    I hope I can offer a bit more perspective from the faculty section. I've sold two of my tickets on stub hub, only twice in 15 years. I ended up having to sit next to some Arkansas fans once and some Auburn fans the other time. I don't know why my tickets were not bought by bulldog fans. I...
