ARon Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Don't worry there are only 8 of them, but I guess the policy hasn't changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonwich Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 There ended up being about 12, but what happened? They got moved over to the high-priced seats about six rows up near center court. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billikenfan05 Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Who cares at this point. They moved them, they didn't make much noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonwich Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 The caring, according to another thread, is that someone in the Athletic Department actually Did The Right Thing. BTW, 05, was that you who won one of the time-out contests? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runnin'Billiken Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Who cares at this point. They moved them, they didn't make much noise.The only people who did an organized UMKC cheer all night was the UMKC bench like a 6th grade girls softball team. I'll take it.

Hmm, I'm thinking I might try to get kicked out of the student section at the next game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you guys did a good job considering the circumstances: Xmas break, a nobody apponent, Tuesday night. I respect what you do. You give it your all in a tough situation. Just bring the heat come conference play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just bring the heat come conference play. Tonight I learned what I always suspected, but had never proved: Crowd excitement STARTS with the students. When we were dead, the crowd was dead. There were 3 (count 'em 1-2-3) undergrads standing in front, and when we starting jumping up and down and waving our arms like idiots to people screaming get up, the noise magically started increasing. It happened several times. I was shocked. Who knew all it took to get a few thousand people going is a couple idiots who refuse to shut up?

Alex Bazzell's lover in the KSTATE gear who wanted me to fight him in the parking lot. 2. When Kwamain went on his run to take the lead I took my camera over near the UMKC fans who had been yelling at me and told them I needed to get a picture of their faces. The portly ginger flipped me the bird with both hands. I have the picture and will post it tomorrow after the women's game. 3. And the insane blonde who followed me out into the parking lot and told me to "Stop yelling at Alex Bazzell" She explained that he plays basketball and I don't to that I responded, "It didn't look like it tonight!". After all of that she still wouldn't give me her number! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may have been a lot of Mo state fans but when the crowd gets going its contagious. A full student section everygame could bring that to every game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kshoe Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Hmm, I'm thinking I might try to get kicked out of the student section at the next game. Yeah, here's the punishment. Move from these end-zone bleacher seats into the midcourt padded seats that cost Billiken fans $500 extra a year. We showed them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me, it was the smart move. Bad things could have happened. 05 could have been stalked afterward by more than just one crazy blonde.
