I got it too.
I Like It!
They had an add somewhere (game or paper?): 2 Adult Tix, 2 Kid Tix, 4 hot dogs & 4 drinks for $44
Nice foresight by our athletic admin. Hopefully this will make up for lower student attendance.
This is a great deal, I realize; but it reminds me that the school down the road has done this in the past and I thought it sounded like they were desperate to get people to the game (which they probably were/are) by bribing them. Hope it doesn't sound like that when it's us doing it.
We are basing this off of history. We always know that home games after thanksgiving has never been attended well by students. This is due to the fact that we continue to schedule home game when school is out. They are just trying to make up for the lack of students at the game.
I will have to look into this deal since I am bringing the family to Ruston for Thanksgiving.
We don't schedule of conference games, our friend and fantastic leader Benson schedules them for us.

ok, just bought the deal. Can't wait to see my Dawgs play again!
That is very cool! Whoever thought of that did a great job!
That is the "SMU Plan". SMU has been doing this exact promo for YEARS. Without it they wouldn't have averaged 3K fans in some years recently.
