I don't think it's gonna make THAT big of a difference.

Will it be a true neutral game? Most likely not. But it's not gonna be on levels of playing at FSU. No. The crowd being slightly in favor of FSU will not be the reason we win/lose this game.

They have double the allotted tickets than we do.

Did you sell your allotment yet?

I know you did your part, just asking.

I'm 10 hours away and have to work with it being on a Monday. I wouldn't be able to go regardless of where they played.


Not sure what point you're trying to make other than saying we can't complain if we don't sell out our allotment....but obviously there's a reason why their allotment is much higher than ours. Most of their fans wouldn't even miss work for this game.
My point is that this is far from a "neutral site game".

Just asking if the allotment had been sold. Nothing more.

Did get you confused with another Rebel poster who bought tickets for his family. My apologies.

Edit: hehatedrew sez he bought around 20 for his crew...

Ah. All good, bruh.


Did see where we had about 2k tickets left on July 6th out of our 13.5k allotment.

FSU sold out of their 32k allotment. Only about a 4 hour drive from Tallahassee to Orlando. But I'm sure there's plenty enough of their fans around the Orlando area.

We're to blame for agreeing to this being a neutral site game....but if we're trying to compete with the big boys...suck it up and beat them anyway.

Just checked the ticket office, where they indicate allotment sold out!

Think you'll dispatch FSU with relative ease.

Stack box, stop Cook & dare a new QB...

Back on topic, extra week gives time for small details on the new VHS.

F$U's spring game was in Orlando. They had 49,913 show up according to the reported figures. There is absolutely nothing "neutral" about playing Free Shoes anywhere in FL north of Tampa...

Man that's the one thing I'm most excited about. If you were sitting in North Endzone, it sucked turning all the way around to see a replay.

I just hope they are big enough to actually see from there!

While they'll definitely be nice to have, maybe it's just me but I think the video boards too small.

Ahhh... back in the 90s, the Sony Jumbotron was much smaller and you could see it just fine.

I don' think we'll have a problem seeing it, I went to Alabama last year and sat at the top of the endzone and could see their jumbotrons just fine and they are about the same size as what we're putting in. But I wish they had made them bigger so they would have enclosed the stadium more than what they're going to do.

You will be ok. I would worry more about the heat in that north endzone
