UPDATE: ICE BUT NO CUPS FOR SATURDAY

[AppinATL]

The concessions people have clicker counters today and apparently have been instructed to count how many people ask about cups/ice.

Go to a different window every time and ask.

One game sample does not make a conclusion.

Couldn’t make the game so ask for me please

Well, at the game late 2Q, I am now a convert; the soft drink I purchased at the beginning is HOT...HOT...HOT!

^One of the worst responses Gillin could have provided.

Personally I think taking MMB seriously is a pretty terrible response to anything. Cue the "not everyone can afford $50!" takes!

Posts like this certainly make it more difficult to take seriously.

No one has to take anyone seriously. What's the fun in that? My point is that IMO it isn't wise to make policy based on the attitudes of a vocal few that lack all the relevant information. I thought it would make more sense to have a soda fountain and only sell stadium cups. I spoke to someone that had all the data and realized why this decision was made even though I prefer cups + ice. The attitude of entitlement when our Yosef giving rate is so low makes it difficult for me to take demands like this seriously.

It’s the “demand” of ice my man, not that tall of a task. Seriously, if we can’t afford to provide something as basic as ice then we should just pack it up and go home or drop back down to FCS. I’ve never went to a college or *high school* game that didn’t have ice. It’s actually pretty pathetic this even has to be a conversation. And i don’t know how you can really argue other wise.

Be careful. There are a couple idiots on here will accuse this thread's posters as being by perpetual whiners whose lives are miserable.

After a quick scan of this entire thread, the impression I'm left with is that Chancellor Everts is the source of the no cups/no ice decree. She apparently got off of her diversity soap box long enough to renew her sustainability campaign. Does she not know that souvenir cups are or can be profit-makers and that they get carried back to homes and dorm rooms to become part of individual collections? Some are even handed down from students to their younger siblings. I have an App cup collection that dates back to the mid-70s. To a local landfill or to a barge on the Mississippi River, Hudson River or in New York Harbor they will never go!

Methinks our chancellor and her leadership team also see it as a way to curtail drinking inside the stadium and avoid some of the ungodly trashing of the stadium's public restrooms with the sharp glass of shattered mini-bottles.

Yep, but more and more mini-bottles are plastic now.

Could you post some pictures of your collection? This might be more interesting that an old game program cover.

When you try to be sustainable but just produce more potentially recycled trash.

Did anyone notice the flyers on the wall in the Men's room? They were classic "Please recycle/dispose of your trash properly" posters but I thought it was funny that they included about 6 different bottle shapes that all correspond to liquor.
