Just got back from a trip to West Texas (Lubbock area). Even the two lanes were 75. Never saw a State Trooper on any of the two lanes and very few on the 4 lanes. I guess Texas is not big on producing revenue from speeding tickets and seat belt violations.

The state isn't but watch out for the small towns, especially near the first of the month. There are speed traps in Texas. However, cities and towns cannot make more than 1/2 their revenue from traffic tickets. Anything more goes to the state, so the small towns don't want to go to the trouble if they can't keep the money. Some towns have gotten into trouble for not sending the overage to the state and have lost their police department certification. Kendleton on US 59 south near me is one example.

Every home game is like an away game for me. In addition to those I've already got travel and tickets booked for MissSt and Kansas State.

Taking cowbells to Miss St games as a Tech fan is about the same as wearing red to a Tech game at Cajun field...
Smart fans just don't do it

So you're saying the band will wear red when we play ULL this year? I fear you may be correct.

I make as much noise as I can when the "OTHER TEAM" has the ball on 3rd and 4th down. My two cowbells help out. I use them in the JOE and will use them at the Miss ST game! I don't see a problem with that!
Re: Which Away Games Road Trips are You Making?
I'll (+1) will be at the WKU game. Can't wait!

Hope to make all the games in Ruston, and host as many Tech fans as I can at the Rice game. Also never been to San Antonio so I am looking forward to visiting there as well.
Re: Which Away Games Road Trips are You Making?
I was really looking forward to going to the WKU Game... But it's on a "school night" and I won't get back to Louisville until after 1am. I don't think the boss man would appreciate snoring in the office.

Tell him it's a family emergency.
Re: Which Away Games Road Trips are You Making?
Yep, the Tech Family could use your support!
Re: Which Away Games Road Trips are You Making?
I'm making the trip to WKU. Is it worth it to sit in the "Tech section" for the same price as MUCH better seats in the "WKU sections?" I feel like my money is better spent watching the game from the 40 yard line than it is in the corner of the endzone. I also want to be amongst my people, though. Thoughts?

Stadium will be empty when we are up by 20. You can move get the Tech fans down with you in the second half.

What'd you decide? Looking like buying through their ticket office will save you some fees. Thinking we're going to sit in "WKU Sections" to have a better view, but have not pulled the trigger yet. If WKU beats Vandy the good seats may get snatched up by their fans.
