What Do Schools Get Out of Playing In the Skyline?

Featured Replies

Does anybody think that the fact you can watch the games at TMC from the parking lot have anything to do with the parking fee? I don't know, just asking a question because lots stayed in the lot and watched.

 

If I was in charge I would not have allowed that but no I don't think that has anything to do with it.

I don't care of the Ben-gals are working the parking, naked. I can't see fans having to pay for parking at a high school game. Now, if it's reserved parking for a fundraiser and it's optional, fine. But, otherwise it's just sticking it to the parents and fans as far as I'm concerned.

 

Just think of all the new clients (and future office staffers) Eric Deters would have if the Ben-Gal cheerleaders were actually working the parking, naked.

As much as I want to blame the bald angry guy, ya gotta look at the people signing the agreement and that is each school.

 

So if you want to blame anyone, blame your school for selling your program out for money that will not be guaranteed at a regular home game...I would be curious to know how much $ these schools are collecting.

When all the games were at Nippert and the kids got to play in the atmosphere of a college stadium it was a really neat experience and worth the inflated ticket prices. IMO, To be part of this by playing in a double header at Dixie Heights high school is not worth while and unfair to the fans. Especially for the team losing a home game.

Yeah, but the Funnel Cakes are the best around...:thumb:

This is just an hypothesis.... But maybe Conner/Boone had to "pay their dues" and were promised a spot at Nippert next year? Again I have no clue but it's the only logical explanation in my mind. Cause I'm upset I spent $15 dollars for one half of football, even if my Cougars won!

SK and Dixie have played their skyline games at home at least 2 years in a row.

I don't think that's the case. It's my understanding they wanted to have last year's opener at Nippert but Boone declined.

If I remember Boone was real short on home games last year.

 

Additionally, I am told that Conner received over 5K in exchange for $5 parking and $10 admission.

$5k sounds like a lot. Not sure how much the home game with Boone would have brought in.

At those prices it doesn't sound like that much to me.

Maybe. Just depends on what they net on a home game. If it's not much difference then I see no reason in participating in this event.

 

I am one that likes high school games in high school venues even if means parking issues, crowded stands, and bad concessions.

 

As you know I hate the 9th region being at BOK. I get that it's for financial reasons but it's a bland environment.

 

Nothing beats a high school environment.

I would guess each BCS stadium will seat at least 3K. What's your guess?

Nothing but disgruntled parents that have to pay that high price to play at your own stadium. What a joke!

Here's an idea: Free parking...and $5.00 funnel cakes. :cool:
