No more balloons

Student government is a joke. It's a bunch of pussies representative of a very small percentage of students who actually give a **** about anything that goes on there.
Soooooo, let the student body, who doesn’t even fill 3/4 of their ticket allotment, vote to end a tradition near and dear to alumni and alumni’s kids/grandkids because of turtles? Judas, the campus is a bunch of limp wristed libs anymore…Nerdhart has taken over hasnt it
Well, I cant say it’s a big deal to ME one way or the other. But I really need some data on Turtles being harmed in Nebraska or Iowa by red balloons. Hell I lived in Nebraska for my first 18 years. And I bet I saw less than 10 turtles that weren’t from a pet store. And I spent quite a bit of time in what would be considered pretty good turtle habitat. So I call Turtlle **** on that excuse, until I see evidence.
So we're trying to save an over population of deer?
Some places are infested with turtles. They chase away all the fish.
Birds? Yeah they're not as stupid as these people want you to think they are.
Sure, some may eat the random crap they find on the ground but in general I'm betting any of the 3 animals listed above have no interest after the first couple of seconds.

I don’t think it necessarily the balloons, but the screwball excuses for getting rid of them. My favorite would be polluting peoples homes. OMG, I was home last night and a renegade ballon flew right into my garage. I called SERVPRO to clean up this mess. But I’m not sure when I will be able to return to my home.
By the time a deer would mistake a balloon for food, I would assume the balloon would be smaller than an Antifa members member. And if my 150lb dog can pass a pair of women’s underwear, I’m guessing Bambi can pass a deflated balloon.
All the crap you see on the ground out in the woods and we find a reason to complain about the things you're least likely to see. I see more damn Starbucks cups laying on the ground while out trotting around in the woods than I do a freaking balloon.
Let’s be real, the balloon thing has been pretty stupid since the beginning.

I blame the men's athletic woes on Lil Red. He kinda looks like a balloon so let's get rid of that bastard. He's cursed the program!!!
it's not a necessary thing, nor that big of a deal..
We traded a 4th qtr light show for the balloons.. I'm cool with that.

I agree...I just hate the lame reasoning. None of those dorks care about a turtle or bird. In fact, I bet most don't do **** to actually go help animals.
I would rather they were just honest and said "Yeah so we feel like this should be over because we feel like we need to take a stand against something but we really don't have a good reason as to why, most of us have never even held a ******* turtle."
Holy Hansenpfeffer, do these idiots have any idea how many Millions and Millions of Birds and Eagles are killed each year from Wind Generation and Solar Generation? What a freakin woke joke. Nebraska balloons are the least of these wildlife's worries.
I think if we put masks on the balloons we would all be ok, and the tradition could continue. We may need a mandate though.
So that's my d@mn problem ! I've been trying to shoot them ! Memo to self buy balloons.
The balloons thing is stupid. Always has been, always will be. Glad it may end, never made a difference either way to football. I’d prefer to just see us with a good team again before I die… I have maybe 30 years or so, so it’s cutting it close…
JMO… so don’t get you panties in a bunch if your grand pappy sat you on his lap and let go of a balloon once when you were a kid.

But it only works for night games..
Day games need the balloons..
Fvuk the Liberal Student body brained washed agenda..
Did y’all know helium is mined? And is subject to shortages? I tried to buy my daughter a birthday ballon several years ago and the helium lady at the grocery store told me. How do you mine helium? Is it just a bunch of miners with Mickey Mouse voices?
If that was the argument they had used, I could buy it. Would've been smart on their parts lol but nooooo, had to go all eco pop poo on us instead...
