State Championship Games are a Joke

Featured Replies

Concessions are going to be high regardless of what college facility you play at. That seems like common sense to me.

Yep. Which is why they & movie theaters rarely get a dime from me.

 

Proud to say I was there for 5 of the 6 games this week, and all they got from me was a whopping $12 at concessions.

What is the price of concessions during the "Sweet 16"?

They are a joke, too.

 

I read something either on this thread or another one about how they didn't have programs, and while it would be nice for them to maybe publish the most basic of those (if nothing more than for memorabilia for those playing in it, and their family(s)...err Mom)....they'd be ridiculous, too. I've not bought one of those in years, either.....dial up the ole' KHSAA Scoreboard site/link.

Irrelevant, the games are at Rupp so most of the patrons are so "tingly" about being there they don't care.

Seems to me like all of these teams should be moving up classes with the exception of Trininy. (unless you want to make a 7A). Then it also seems like some of the teams that didn't win need to move down classes. For example. 6A and 5A teams getting blown out need to move down. I don't know, may sound stupid, but create parity by shuffling classes. Would make scheduling difficult.

ABSOLUTELY NOT

 

Move the games to UK!

You need to detect sarcasm. I don't pay for parking at any other high school game. At every other high school game, I pay $1-2 for soda and $2 for hot dogs and popcorn.

 

Every other game isn't the STATE TITLE

People were asking why folks don't go to the games. I'm telling you why I don't go to the games unless my hometown teams are playing. As a casual fan, I would never go. The product isn't worth the price for me. Others may feel differently.

I agree that the state titles (for the most part) could have been mailed in. This is a product of our current system. Travel costs among a million other things are the excuses you get when talking about making state finals more interesting and better games. Teams that had rather get their trophy for being the # 467 best team instead of moving up and playing better schools. I (and am probably out here by myself) had rather see schools be able to play up or down to equal out the competitiveness of every class. Size of school should only be one factor in determining the "class" of each school. This would make every class more competitive, and bring out the best in every team.

But it will be at UK so 99% of the fans won't care. If UK gouges them that's fine, anyone else not so much. And we'll go back to the days of the games feeling like you're playing in front of empty seats because you will be.

 

Exactly.

I know all of the "Work harder" comments are mostly all TIC, but some teams are just better. That's what bothers me about people not being able to accept.

 

It's weird. Folks want their team to be dominant but when their team is getting dominated then it is a problem.

Schools want the same thing. Had rather be dominant in a lower class, than be a contender in a higher class. Should be exactly the opposite. I think only the 6A game should garner a college facility.

But all of the schools are playing in their appropriate classes? It doesn't make sense to move up in class for 99.8% of the schools that are playing.

Play the 5A and 6A games at a neutral site (WKU), the rest are played at the highest seeded team remaining in classification.
