ok lets try this again guys.. and hopefully with a better outcome lol. First of all.. who will be there? I AM!
TV info for the game: http://blog.oregonlive.com/behindducksbeat/2009/09/oregonpurdue_tv_information.html
nice.. I'm hoping to get in on season tickets next year.. it also might be a little easier since Cal, SC, OSU, and co are gonna be on the road.. not as much demand.
It's totally worth it. For several years, I was doing the eBay, craigslist, stubhub thing, trying to get tickets for each game so I could go down to Eugene and tailgate with my buddies down there and go to the game. By the end of each season, I had spent more on tickets than I would have had I just plunked down for the season tickets. So last year I anted up for the season tix and haven't looked back since.
you just don't learn not to jinx your team! you have to let someone else start the thread dawg! Good luck and go ducks!
last game was also the first time I wore the Dennis Dixon jersey I found at Ross for 20 bucks.. I think that was is.. not the thread
Yeah thats how it has been for me.. I never did the whole season thing the last couple years, but I usually do about 3 or 4.. and thats off ebay/craigslist. I figure since I cant make it to all 6 or 7.. they are pretty easy to sell the remaining couple.. plus I wont have to fight tooth and nail, praying that I make it to a civil war, or USC or Cal game one of these years.. I swear I will attend one of those!
well I made the thread again.. and am wearing the jersey.. maybe I'll skip wearing it for the sake of science.
I'll be there. Season tickets ftw. And I'd just like to point out that the Ducks are 6-0 whenever I have been in attendance (which includes wins vs. SC, Oklahoma, and AzSt when they were pretty good, so its not because they've all been cupcake games).
Haha, that was the FIRST game I had ever been to at Autzen, and probably to this day its still one of (if not THE) best sporting events I've ever been to. I was in the student section with my then-girlfriend and a few other buddies, fantastic seats (or, more accurately, bleachers to stand on), and we were all a part of the mob rushing the field when we blocked the Sooners' FG attempt (and my picture was even in the Register Guard the next day!) I'm proud to say I was NOT one of the idiot fans that left early then tried to scramble back in when we caught up as well. Unfortunately the game will always be known for the blown onside kick call, which imo is NOT the deciding factor of the game. But if you ask anyone in the stadium there that day, they would tell you they had no idea it was such a bad call. I don't even think they played it back on the big screen; all anyone heard was 'Ducks Recover, first down Oregon'. I had as good a view as anyone, and all I saw was bodies colliding and the football going from up in the air to invisible in the blink of an eye. So everyone thought it was a legitimate call and that the Ducks recovered, thus triggering the ensuing comeback win. It wasn't until I heard on the radio well after the game that the onside kick call was controversial. Anyway, I'm leaving to Eugene in about 5 hours, so if I see any of you on I-5 SB, I'll be sure to honk!
I think you guys might be in trouble. Did you see what Toledo did to Colorado last night? The same Toledo team that was whipped by Purdue... GO BEAVS!
