I guess I hope it works.  The MAC needs fans. Can somebody hit a pull up jumper for me?.....

Actually I think this is a great idea and one that would work here too.  SE Ohio is a bit of a music hotbed these days (Fur Peace Ranch, Stuart's Opera House, Nelsonville Music Festival).  There are only so many folks in the area so the addition of quality music to the game day atmospshere might actually attract some non-traditional football fans.  For years, Lou's band played in tailgate park before the game.  Why not take it to the next level (no offense to Backwords) and pay for a nice sound system and stage?

I agree with Alan here.  Might be a good idea.   Would not interfere with the 110.  Back to Top The Optimist General User Member Since: 3/16/2007 Location: CLE Post Count: 5,596 Status: Offline     RE: Football and a concert    Posted: 6/20/2013 5:47:12 PM  I agree. Great idea. Not sure how this is best formatted... Game after the concert or game before the concert... Honestly, it can be a bit much mixing an entire football game and concert into one day. Definitely limits tailgating as well.. Still, I like the creativity here.  Last Edited: 6/20/2013 5:48:23 PM by The Optimist I've seen crazier things happen.

They can just as easily come to the concert and leave. Also, it seems that this would get rather expensive - not sure it's the best use of money. Time will tell if this has any appreciable impact on UB's crowd.
