[quote]10K over 10 years is less than season tickets[/quote] That’s a good point. But I guess if you’re the person dropping $1k/year into the Collective slush fund you’re probably already spending money on season tickets and booster points.

Collective $ vs. Natty
Posted by Demosthenian on 4/10/24 at 1:27 am
Would you give to your team $1,000 per year to ensure your football team won a Natty?
The catch is you’d have to do it every year for the next 10 years, would only win it once, and wouldn’t know in which year of those 10 it’d happen.
The other catch is you’d have to know, sitting there with yo...

re: Angriest that you've been after a College Football game?
Posted by Demosthenian on 3/1/24 at 11:03 am
It’s funny, there are many games I’m disappointed or frustrated by—I mean, I’ve been a UGA fan—but one of the kind simplicities of cheering for a team not being at the top, to me, was a lack of real anger after a loss.
Turns out the entitlement that comes with success is an ugly thing.

A reminiscence
of my sweet adolescence
Time to hang it up
Varsity Drive-In

Cruising through Athens
Clemson fried chicken
Deviled eggs for the Rebels
Beers at Ross Crane House
Between the Hedges
