I'll never be critical of anyone who buys tickets or goes to games. It's their money to do with as they wish. Personally, I quite spending a penny on any of it about 4 years ago because I just didn't like what I saw going on... endless gouging in far more ways than just ticket prices. There doesn't seem to be an end to it. Just proves that no matter how old you come to be, priorities and the importance thereof are constantly changing. I like to keep up with what's going on, but I can confidently say that my sofa is as close as I'll ever get to setting foot in a stadium or arena of any sort other than to watch my grandkids play.

I never thought I'd say this, but because of the way things have gone and the pre-game and halftime being what they are now, I take the line from Rhett Butler. "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn... Any more. Like someone said, they don't play Dixie, From Dixie with love and we have a goofy bear for a mascot. One that EVERYONE outside the Olé Miss family makes fun of. I had season tickets for 40 plus years, but not anymore!

Yep....they've sucked all the fun out of it. They decided they were willing to lose a certain demographic in order to curry favor with another demographic..... I'll bet dollars to donuts the new favored demographic won't contribute the way those in the older demographic did....not even close. Liberals/progressives NEVER learn. They just destroy and then find another cause to support and another boogie man to rail against as they constantly try to find happiness.....and even when they win they're not content..... Wonder why.....naa, we know.
