Re: UNC Football ticket allotment

So what I hear you saying is that exclusivity is driving up the price of the ticket.

You just gave me a business idea. Instead of PARK & RIDE, PARK & TOW! Charge prices lower than the average Tow Amount and have a car trailer with a Ram 3500 set-up to just tow your car to the lot. More efficient than valet and you can leave your car wherever you want! In case you can't pay, the car is collateral for the company.spacemonkey wrote: ↑Thu Aug 04, 2022 10:21 pmThis will sound like I am kidding but I think the numbers might work out ok. Back when I was in school, (APP) I was running late for an important exam and parked somewhere I was not supposed to park. I knew I would be booted and have to pay the fine. I think you could pull up at the front gate and get out and allow your car to be towed and pay the tow bill and end up not too far off from how much a parking space is starting to cost. I don't know how much a tow bill is these days in Boone. Especially if it is just one game when you know it is going to be crazy.
Best option may be to pull up, get out, enjoy the game and find your car after.
Supply and demand, who knew? I wanted to go to this game as soon as it was announced, the same as I did for Wake Forest (I had to move on the day of this game sadly), South Alabama 2014, Arkansas State in 2016, and Miami. This is the first game I won't be able to make it to because it doesn't make sense financially.
I felt the same way about beating Michigan at the time, "This is nice, but it does not count to win the SoCon and get in the playoffs or win the FCS Championship."ericsaid wrote: ↑Wed Aug 10, 2022 11:21 amSupply and demand, who knew?

UNC folks think this is App State's "Super Bowl". Of course it's a big deal, but in terms of program longevity, it's much more important to win the Sun Belt East and then Conference Championship Game. Beating UNC means very little if you don't win the Sun Belt and App State fans know what Championships are worth. Michigan would've been huge regardless, but if JMU doesn't fumble and instead wins that game in the Quarters, the 2007 season is a let down.
Who cares. Call it our Super Bowl. It is the biggest game in Boone ever. Let's win our Super Bowl go 2-0 in my lifetime against Carolina, and head to Texas. Heck, we can call it A&M's Super Bowl for all I care.
Dude come on. That was no one’s reaction to that game. Being part of the biggest upset in college football history was not followed up with this is a nice little win but we got a so con title to focus on. Obviously that was the overall goal but that win made us a national name not winning the so con that year.AppWyo wrote: ↑Thu Aug 11, 2022 12:57 pmI felt the same way about beating Michigan at the time, "This is nice, but it does not count to win the SoCon and get in the playoffs or win the FCS Championship."ericsaid wrote: ↑Wed Aug 10, 2022 11:21 amSupply and demand, who knew?

I did and I was in Ann Arbor. I mean they were ranked number five and we were ranked number one. If we had not won the FCS championship in 2007, 2007 would have been a let down.Seattleapp wrote: ↑Thu Aug 11, 2022 3:38 pmDude come on. That was no one’s reaction to that game.

I was there too and also at the title game. People around the country do not know we won the national title that year but everyone knows we beat Michigan. Having said that this UNC game is not at that level. But we both want the win! Go appsAppWyo wrote: ↑Thu Aug 11, 2022 3:52 pmI did and I was in Ann Arbor.

Didn't we come home and play Lenoir Rhyne or someone like that the next week? I recall feeling a little down considering the drop off on opponent but also kind of worried about the team being too high from that huge win and slip up. We didn't run the table but we still accomplished our goals. Helluva team and year.Seattleapp wrote: ↑Thu Aug 11, 2022 3:38 pmDude come on. That was no one’s reaction to that game.

I blame that stupid pep rally they had. And we never played them or Va Tech.Rekdiver wrote: ↑Thu Aug 11, 2022 6:44 pmAnd soberingArmantiWaterSafety wrote: ↑Thu Aug 11, 2022 6:29 pmSeeing Miami in Boone was surreal. Seeing the scoreboard at the end was real.
