Last game our gang parked at the casino. Was very expensive (dropped a hun), but that was self inflicted. They charged nothing to park.



GOOOOO  GUINS!!!!!

Petey....you have 47 days to learn basic strategy and the Hi/Lo method.  This time you'll clean em out and leave with a fat stack.
Now there's a great plan!  Let me know how it works out Petey!

Yep, you're going to loose the hundred evenually anyway, might as well be the lead-up to another win in Pitt.  If the Browns can't win in Heinz, at least the Quins can!  I agree, GOOOOO GUINS!!!!!!

If you guys were to estimate, how many students and or total YSU fans will make the trek? I am going, and the group of people also coming with me is now up to 9! Almost all in my group are current students (including myself, as grad students still count) with only one person that is an alumni but not currently attending. Age range in my group is from 20-25. I'm thinking the young students may show up? Hoping there is some hype going on campus.

I do wish the tickets they offered students were cheaper. I feel like the price will discourage many at $40. I got all of my group's tickets for less than they are selling the ones at YSU! and I am at the 40 yard line area lower section! But still hoping a good number make it out. I know when I went to Pitt last time, we got a $5 ticket and the bus there and back was only $25 so it was $30 for ticket and bus to and from total. That was setup by student government.

"I do wish the tickets they offered students were cheaper."
We bought a couple club seats from a Pitt season ticket holder and $40 seems cheap to me!  Bought them last time too and were right in the middle of a few hundred Pitt fans.  We had a ball!  Hoping for a replay. 
There were a few thousand the last time, I expect a few more, but mostly older.  Kids don't travel well in sports, it's us older guys!  (Good grief, 1-AA has been asking how we get kids to go to HOME games, for crying out loud!)

Those better be great seats for $40.00.  You can get them on Pitt's website for as little as $15.00 plus a couple of bucks for the print at home option.

Yes, we bought ours for $5 during the Cinko de mayo special. Pretty far up though.

I also participated in the the "Cinco de Mayo" promotion.  Tickets were $5.00 and were mailed to us last wee.
