I am with SJ on this ! If SJ's point was to call manson out for writing on all the player's walls.

What are you talking about?[/quote]


You writing on players walls before the games? coach Mckay should be able to handle giving the players bulliten board material.

Uh, yeah, I'm not trying to be Liberty's biggest fan. I'm trying to start a core group of fans that can last after I leave.

Park in outer mongolia. then walk 9000 miles to the arena. I would suggest parking somewhere over by washington and lee and then walking through downtown to get there.

Take a right in front of the arena and park at the elementary school at the top of the hill. The walk down is fine, but it's killer going back up if you are an :oldhag .

Yeah, they've got about that many. They do their membership different than us though. They go for numbers while we go for activity.

Oh geesh. You guys are real encouraging about parking!! Not only am I an " :oldhag " I am still recuperating from surgery :stretcher and can barely walk down the hall much less 9000 miles from mongolia. Thinking this might not be a great idea and my sofa is looking better all the time. Nah! I'll be there :D

Which is one of the exact reasons I left and started The LUnatics. Their purpose is different than ours.


As for parking, it's hit or miss but never good. If you can get a spot on one of the side streets you're golden. If not, bring a jacket and walk through downtown.

Oh I'd never doubt or question the need to start the LUnatics...just give you a hard time about being the #1 fan (which I still think your close...but you kinda have to be in your position)

I knew you weren't questioning it. I was just commenting on that's why we got started. When I was on leadership for the SFC I pictured it being what The LUnatics are. Their goal was a student booster club to get kids connected so they would stay connected when they graduated. Both have their place. I just like ours better.

It's also easier to be a big fan when you have other big fans around you. That's part of the reason we've taken off. Most of us were big fans but nowhere near what we are now until we all got around each other.

This is one of the biggest games of the year...why is our ticket office not opening until 12:00pm? There are still adult tickets available...I've gotten like 20 calls for tickets b/c they didnt know what to do because they are closed.

They never open til 12. They're open from 12-5 every day. It allows them to do the meetings and all of that before the office opens so they don't have to randomly close it in the middle of the day.

Most of the time though if someone has a problem and they call before noon we answer if someone is here. The noon opening gives us time (since it is usually only 2 people) to run all the errands we have to run, attend meetings, return voicemails from the night, print tickets ordered online, take care of pass lists, etc.

Also, we've had like 3 people come up to the window this morning and we took care of them, we're not jerks about answering the window early if someone is here.

Just talked to VMI police. There will likely be no shuttles. The best way might be to park around town and walk.

which brings up a thought..... and I'm probably alone in this, but bringing the organizations together isn't a bad idea.

by adding one GA slot under the flames club, you could have one GA responsible for the organization and management like alan does already, with the other taking care of the actual fan work ie research and being in the crowd at the game.

There was talk about us being under the SFC umbrella when we first got approved. I didn't want that and luckily I had some people on my side that fought for us to be our own group. I like it better than way. I like how we'll work together on stuff but still be two separate groups. For what we do, I think it's better that it is completely, 100% student led. We don't have to go to someone in Hancock to approve every little thing we do and that works better.
