What in the heck was up with the long lines in the stadium?

I usually wait till the end of halftime to run down to pee and get a drink instead of standing in line forever during the half. With 7 min left in halftime i went to the restroom. The line went down the wall, all the way to the next bathroom and then made a ninety degree turn and all the way back to the iron fence. Longest I have ever seen. This is on the east side.

Then i stood in the concession line for an even longer amount of time just to get my usual half a coke. I got back to my seat with five minutes left in the third quarter.

This should never happen to anyone. And there were a shitload of people not contributing to the atmosphere because of it.

Save yourself the trouble and go to the new endzone. Never been in line for the bathroom, and they are super fast at the concessions.

Yeah, the lower west and endzone are a whole different game now...

I'm really expecting the east lower to be redone soon. Maybe this offseason...

People thaw out in bathroom in cold weather.

I never wait long in the north end zone or the rest rooms.

Td's is spot on with this one. But I understand it's a progress, we had to get the projects we could done. It's just that now the east side is very lacking and I hope they get on it soon. Need 3 times the bathrooms on that side. We drink more over there, we yell more, we stand up the entire game. The east side is where it's at for atmosphere.

I'd like to see us do it with the endzone ribbon boards and distributed sound system this offseason...

That said, it is only worth doing if we have the $$ up front for it. Our debt service is pretty big right now and may get bigger with Dudy Noble...

Distributed sound needs to happen before anything else with the stadium.

Absolutely. I am tired of asking people if they understood what was said. The answer is always, "I have no idea."

So who knew of the plan to reroute post game traffic out in town? A friend of mine that keeps up with everything up there didn't know about it. I got caught in a different route off campus and going up Blackjack but was diverted to Loxley Way which was OK but could hit where I stay with a rock but could get no closer. I had to go almost to Walmart to get back on 12 North so I could get home. I yelled at every Starkville policeman that could hear me. I took the dog out at 11:05 and it was still bumper to bumper where I was and there is never any post game traffic there to speak of normally. What a stupid, stupid plan. Hell, I will walk to campus from now on.

I went Blackjack east, cut through to the backside of Old Mayhew Road and was from the Student Clinic to 82 bypass in 15 minutes

You sound very butthurt for no reason. We go back to our tailgate and rejoice in our win for as long as we can. Sorry for partying. When we go to walk to our truck the lot is empty and town is fairly clear. Why everyone wants to jet right after the game I can't figure out.

I live in Rankin county, and I like driving south with the masses. decreases my odds of a speeding ticket.

Plus I get home before 1 if I head on out.

I think it's grown 23% in the last 13 years. Traffic isn't too bad for me, but I work in Canton and go across the top of the Rez via Hwy 43.
