Maybe use some of that vaunted Corps intelligence to look into how supply and demand works

I wonder if Rodo uses his Rodo tag just to annoy us because Rodo knows his Rodo tag is fricking stupid.

the hotels would not make it if they didn't increase their prices during the home games.

Rodo


Maybe it's a foreshadowing of his true calling/purpose in life. Like Hodor from Game of Thrones.

"Roll dough."

I know it's legal as hotels aren't necessities and thus the price hikes don't constitute price gouging, but the two night minimum is bullshite.

One day when I have big dick doctor money I plan on buying a small gameday house if I end up living more than an hour or so from CS. I fricking hate driving home the same day especially after a late game.

This is my plan. Either that or just chartering a damn jet to/from SA

Although the Alamo Aggie gameday bus experience wasn't bad at all

That's arguably just as good as the A&M home schedule (fwiw, I think A&M's is a little better but it's close).

I meant as far as quality in football opponents. As far as bigger names A&M's is obviously far greater.

it absolutely is not

ND is the best between both, but none of your other games would top any of ours

In my experience, name programs are a bigger factor in drawing crowds than the quality of the team at present.

For years prior to our expansion, the 2001 Notre Dame game was our second biggest crowd ever even though ND wasn't shite that year. Programs like Tennessee, LSU, Bama, Georgia, etc. are big name draws even when they are down. Tennessee could have 2-3 losses by the time we play them and it will still probably be our biggest crowd of the year if the weather is decent (LSU game on T-day will see a dip because of the holiday).

Baylor and TCU can be as good as they want, they are still not name programs.

Is and will be at South Carolina level or below forever, 4 years of relevance due soley to one coaches offensive schemes(a coach that is no longer there) and a heisman qb do not change that.

Yeah, I completely agree. I was thinking in the terms of football quality. I'll trade schedules with either team based on our home schedule next year...

That's absolute trash in name and quality opponent.

The East in general is just so bad.
