    Is it just me, but are ticket sales lagging?

    If it’s any consolation, you can get into the PSU game at Michigan for just $47.

    OT: True Crime Scranton

    My latest post is about a murder that never happened. Seems that fake news has been a thing for at least 150 years. I love how they called out the New York Herald for its November 1874 article on the Central Park Zoo animals that escaped and terrorized the city. :)...

    FC/OT: Is Cory Giger right?

    Giger has been, and it seems always will be, a PSU hater. I couldn’t care less what he thinks. It feel like he uses that contrarian approach to try to differentiate himself from other beat writers. Pfft.

    FC: White Out Tix….

    $330 list price for north end zone upper rows is absolutely insane. Our strategy of seeing Penn State on the road is looking better and better. Cheaper tickets, hotels, airfare, rentals cars and/or public transit. We get to explore new campuses and make each trip a mini-vacation. I’m afraid...

    Is it just me, but are ticket sales lagging?

    Mystery solved. I was told it’s because Michigan is partnered with SeatGeek and not Ticketmaster. TM doesn’t display the seat numbers, only the row. That makes sense to me now. Sucks if you’re buying through TM because you won’t know which side of the section the tix are on.

    Is it just me, but are ticket sales lagging?

    We’re looking at going to the Michigan game. I checked on Ticketmaster and saw something interesting. I’ve never seen so many entire rows available. That would lead me to believe telthat the seats are likely owned by investors or brokers than actual fans. I wonder if that’s true. Thoughts?

    FC/OT: Jon Stewart's 'The Weekly Show' really interesting and rage inducing this week....

    I agree. Grocery stores continue to operate on razor-thin margins, and it is all about volume. The consolidation of grocers shows that. They need this technology to keep operating at scale. The introduction of loyalty programs and digital coupons allows them to segment and target different sets...

    FC/OT: Jon Stewart's 'The Weekly Show' really interesting and rage inducing this week....

    Our local Fry's (Kroger) just installed new digital price tags on every shelf and item in the store. This lets them dynamically price items. I'm not suggesting that they will raise prices on a whim, but they certainly could with the press of a button. If you haven't seen this yet, check out the...

    OT: True Crime Scranton

    New post up. What I thought was a simple 1893 murder in Dunmore, PA, turned into so much more. At the heart of it was an Italian woman who struggled to raise her family. And the man who died is the one I still can't find. If you have Prignano, Nolè, or Nolli in your family tree, I'd love to...

    OT: Houston trip

    Phoenix was like that when we moved here too. They didn’t have a lot of downtown apartment/resedential living. People moved to the burbs. Phoenix has built a lot more residential living and infrastructure (grocery stores) and now it’s more lively. I expect Houston will do the same. Personally, I...

    '26 Week 3 (9/17-19) CFB Games thread

    They really need to do something about the size of these helmets. 😉

    Did you see the end of the NCSU-Vandy game. Link.

    I just saw the stat that entering today teams who were leading with less than 10 seconds to play and had the ball were 1046-1. The only loss was when Michigan State blocked the punt of Michigan in 2015. Oof.

    FC: Buffalo kinda sorta asking to get curb stomped.

    That was my thought too.

    OT: Houston trip

    I remember you said that. That’s fantastic. Do you stay up there or day trip as much as possible?
