The highest spending age group is between 25 and 54.
Now do donations to the school and season tickets.
You think what age group spends the most on amazon or groceries is relevant here.
Get a hold of one of the annual reports for an athletic department that lists the donors by tier. It isn't a bunch of Gen Zers or Gen Xers that are in the top group. It's senior citizens

You tell us. You guys are the ones who copied Bama by getting them installed.

Nobody copied anyone. You literally can't get the old bulbs anymore and LEDs are less expensive to operate.

Of course not, because they're awesome.

Watching kids look at colored lights in amazement never gets old. It's the one time they don't have their face buried in their cell phone.

No they’re not - unless you’re at a Van Halen concert.
I hope A&M never caves and does light shows. Of course I’d like them to win more, lol.

Then we pay for you in the nursing home. It’s called Benjamin Button Syndrome and it’s real.

Did you need your cell phone to calculate how much 38k is?

I have a condition. I can no longer watch a game in Bud Walton because of the ribbon board flashing and bigass screen in my face. I still go to BOK in Tulsa for that game.
It's a young peoples' world. I hope y'all make it better, but you'll prolly frick it all to hell.

You mean an impossible to fix budget deficit, dwindling Social Security(that all eligible boomers are fully enjoying the benefits of yet a decent amount think it should be done away with), all three branches of Federal Government being rendered completely dysfunctional, telling every millennial that they should go to college, etc., etc? Boomers are far lesser sons of far greater sires. The best part is that most still refuse to retire because they think they’re “helping”. It’s like bringing your kid to work. Also, to keep on the thread topic - for the record, I hate the gimmicky crap and can firsthand say that winning is winning and the kitschy stuff is only tolerable when you’re winning. We have fabulous facilities and lights… And then the game starts.

Colored strobes, look stupid in person and look like shite on TV. Hope they go away.

ok then. Show me. Break down the age ranges of people who spend money or donate the most to the university.

Looks like a rave at times.
Surprised no one has had a seizure.

Top 5 donors at the University of Alabama in 2020 and their age on that date
CT Fitzpatrick – 56
Marillyn Hewson 66
Hugh Culverhouse – 73
Anonymous - ?
Mike Mouron - 70
Any of those in the 25-54 age range you think has such powerful sway with the University of Alabama based on some generic consumer statistic related to who buys groceries or shops at amazon?
Here is the Ole Miss First list of major donors. Why don't you tell me how many are in that precious 25-54 age range that wields so much power? I got through about 6 (non estate donors) and couldn't find any. But it's a long list so maybe you will find one or two.

What's with all the damn stadium threads recently?
Minus wondering what players are going to opt out of the Birmingham, Weedeater, or Mayonnaise Bowl, most people's seasons are over.
