12th man asking in a survey if donors would poney up $25k in a gift and $5k per year for a tailgating spot on Houston street in a redeveloped Spence Park. Jesus..

Will a lake be added? If sailgating is an option then I would do things I'm not proud of to come up with the money. And also the money for a boat.
Real talk though, I don't like this. Spence is the best place to tailgate. It is fine the way it is. Don't fix what isn't broken. How long would such a project take? The tailgating scene would suffer for at least a year, if not two. Stupid money grab.

3 acre lake in the middle of the park. Also the spots would have power, satellite hook ups, etc. Still

Damn...I was just kidding. Still a terrible idea. But if it does happen, I won't complain too much. I would just be upset to see the best tailgating spot on campus be under construction during football season.

so they are basically asking for funding for a lake

Friends have been tailgating on Houston Steet near the Cav for 15 years. Responsibility just got passed down to our age group. Needless to say we don't have that kind of money. Really cool idea, but I'm not a fan.

This would solve an issue that's been popping up around Spence lately. The last few years I've noticed people bringing rope or tape instead of tents to mark spots off. They mark spots three times the size of what they actually use. It's really annoying. Honestly, it should be against the rules. Take what you need. Don't over do it. It makes it more difficult for everyone else to get a spot. If you're gonna take a huge spot, do it off the path. I'm so sick of walking through and seeing a ton of unused space next to someones big tailgate that they overestimated for. That really grinds my gears.

I don't mean to derail or shite up a thread about a separate topic, but these types of resources need to be going toward the product on the field rather than tailgate spots
If it goes into the AD who knows how it will be dispersed

If only you could just buy a national title. We would have plenty.

Something needs to be done. That massive drainage ditch is hideous

If San Antonio managed to monetize hell out of that drainage ditch they call the "River Walk", why can't we?
