For goodness-sakes people, be part of the solution instead of bitching about the problem.
I live in Shreveport and I HEAR A TON ABOUT TECH and this game! I get comments everywhere I go and wear a blue TECH shirt. I see 10x yes TEN TIMES the Tech licence plates and bumper stickers. There are lots of young alumni in this town who are pumped for the game.
My suggestion (take it or leave it). Make this game fun, show up and tailgate, be loud in the stadium, and voice legitimate concerns with those in charge who can actually fix these "problems."
