I don't post much but I do visit this site daily. I've learned to skip HogDawg's post because most things he says are wrong and/or irrelevant. And his opinions (granted-they ARE opinions) are ridiculous on Alot of issues. Busting peoples balls (i.e. All rustonites) for not showing up falls under this category.

Maybe there should have been something posted earlier and on the more popular Facebook about it. Students stay up until 2AM every night anyway. There should have been 100 of them there, AND I think there may have been had the game been on TV. The majority of students just arent going to sit and listen the radio for 3 hours. Watching the game would have gotten everyone more excited about the victory and more likely to come out at 1AM.
In my 5 years of doing the Victory Band (what we have always called it) I rarely ever saw anyone but band members there.

Granted.
The "Victory Band" is something entirely coordinated by Mr. Robken. He gets word from someone travelling with the team as to their ETA. He sends word out to the band members (mostly volunteer) to be up there with their instruments ready to play.
Other than that, it's not a widely publicized event.
We actually called it "Win-Lose-or-Draw Band" for a few years as we would show up regardless of the outcome.

Absolutely. It's like two different people.
I think he's just reached that stage where being incredibly, almost irrationally cynical about everything is a way to show how mature and sophisticated one is. He will grow out of it. A lot of folks go through that stage in their early 20's when they first get out on their own.

And if it was a college major, we would all be getting paid to do that right now. All of us here on BB&B tend to be good at that don't we.

Well, you may not post much, but you're certainly a PRICK when you do. :icon_wink:
