I have been to a lot of games, pro and college (NFL, NBA and MLB) and have had some truly terrible experiences. BYU does pretty well, with room for improvement

cougarmanguy

9/30/14 3:35pm

The game itself-it's always better than watching it on TV. And Cougartails.

Thedream

9/30/14 4:18pm

How much could you 'careless' ? You obviously haven't been to many stadiums

ManicBlue

9/30/14 4:23pm

I've been to 11 different stadiums,the atmosphere at LES is quite boring

Thedream

9/30/14 5:04pm

Okay I could understand boring but to say it's the worst is just plain out there

SanDiegoCoug

9/30/14 5:15pm

I beg to differ on that one,Nevada is light years ahead what LES can do!

Thedream

9/30/14 5:29pm

But nice assumption lol,glad you know everything about me

Thedream

9/30/14 5:06pm

I 'could careless' to know everything about you but

ManicBlue

9/30/14 5:12pm

If casseroles and green jello is your thing for tailgating have at it lol!

Thedream

9/30/14 5:31pm

cougarmanguy

9/30/14 5:32pm

Thedream

cougarmanguy

9/30/14 6:08pm

What people choose to eat at their own tailgate

PolarisPrime

9/30/14 6:37pm

Show me where in that sentence did I say that,i was joking

Thedream

9/30/14 11:05pm

Well, you mock BYUs game day experience and say it is the worst ever

PolarisPrime

9/30/14 11:10pm

In my opinion it is the worst,can it improve? Maybe....

Thedream

9/30/14 11:20pm

If it's so bad, I would like to know what you propose/plan to do to improve it.

OlanchoCoug

9/30/14 11:25pm

What makes you think it's so great? Besides the view of the mountains?

Thedream

9/30/14 11:32pm

I never mentioned the mountains, but here are a few things.

OlanchoCoug

9/30/14 11:52pm

im thinking they should have a designated tailgating spot

Thedream

10/1/14 12:12am

A designated lot is a good idea.

OlanchoCoug

10/1/14 12:23am

Really? You want BYU to provide a place for people to drink?

PolarisPrime

10/1/14 12:31am

Let's see what you have for it,all you have done is take jabs at me the whole

Thedream

10/1/14 1:14pm

So I have yet to take one jab at you.

PolarisPrime

10/1/14 2:12pm

They made accommodations for notre dame,I wouldn't see why not

Thedream

10/1/14 2:26pm

What accomodations did they make for ND?

PolarisPrime

10/1/14 3:13pm

Their fans were permitted to drink alcohol on the premises,back in 04

Thedream

10/1/14 3:46pm

I think I need some verification for that.

PolarisPrime

10/1/14 5:00pm

I'm not gonna dig up the Deseret news article for you

Thedream

10/1/14 5:41pm

You clearly dont understand how this works

PolarisPrime

10/1/14 5:50pm

Something that did happen,verified by byu and the salt lake newspaper

Thedream

10/1/14 5:59pm

Again - if you make a claim you back it up.

PolarisPrime

10/1/14 6:11pm

BTW - the tailgate party for ND where alcohol was availble

PolarisPrime

10/1/14 6:00pm

They had one on campus too! They wouldn't need permission from the zoobies to

Thedream

10/1/14 6:09pm

No they didn't. Sorry but until you can validate this myth

PolarisPrime

10/1/14 6:15pm

relax a bit would ya?

Thedream

9/30/14 11:21pm

Why? Are you tense or something?

PolarisPrime

10/1/14 12:33am

The view is a part of the game day experience.

spoxjox

9/30/14 4:28pm

you've never been to a mountain west stadium then, or a lot of p5 schools either

OlanchoCoug

9/30/14 5:37pm

Actually I have! What makes you the atmosphere is so spectacular?!

Thedream

9/30/14 6:07pm

Without question, BYU could be far, far better in the pre-game

LV Mike

9/30/14 6:25pm

that's awesome man like your style of tailgating

Thedream

9/30/14 6:33pm

BYU has little to do with the tailgating experience.

PolarisPrime

9/30/14 6:45pm

I think BYU wants to enhance the experience, which is why it has

LV Mike

9/30/14 7:12pm

bingo!

Thedream

9/30/14 7:14pm

Hanging out with family and friends is the biggest appeal I see

PolarisPrime

9/30/14 9:13pm

It's Sam Boyd, old name is Silver Bowl

LV Mike

9/30/14 9:43pm

That's my main gripe tailgating is not the culture for most,wish people

Thedream

9/30/14 11:08pm

Tailgating != Passion for football.

PolarisPrime

9/30/14 11:12pm

Tailgating proves absolutely nothing about how passionate a fan is.

OlanchoCoug

9/30/14 11:26pm

its not just the tailgating...I never said that tailgating alone did I? I didn't

Thedream

9/30/14 11:30pm

yes you did.

OlanchoCoug

9/30/14 11:55pm

Alrighty I stand corrected then

Thedream

10/1/14 1:17pm

So the only thing you care about on game day is the game...
