Not sure if y'all listen to Out of Bounds... sounds like you can't get in their stadium this weekend unless you are one of a select few (700). VAndy is limiting capacity to 700 fans.
Just FYI.

Well, that does it then. I can't see myself driving up there to stand in a parking garage with a bunch of Vandy fans. The view will be much better from my recliner.
Now you're thinking !!Quote:

A few wooden bleachers and maybe 150 fans. The late great Phil Still, best third baseman in Msu history hit a bomb that bounced off the "dumpy old basketball Coliseum , ball was estimated to be about 450 feet, that was with wood bats in the day. I've said it a few times but Paul Gregory's teams in early 70's were as good as any in our history! Btw in the very early 70's was the best starting 3 or 4 starting pitchers ever at Msu imo!
Talk about celebrating in Nashville or I should say partying in Nashville was one of those "making memories". Fun city.
For how recognized they are nationally and how many big alumni they have it is quite shocking how big of a dump their stadium is. For starters, you can foul one off the football stadium if you get enough air under one down left field. Then there's the fact that if you sit in the outfield you have to go into Memorial Gym to use the bathroom and the A/C wasn't on when we played there for the Super.Quote:

Hey, I can get +130db with just my two pinkies. Then they will have to kick both of us out. I look at it as 'Community Service!' I will sacrifice for the good of the crowd!Quote:

I don't really know how much it would change honestly. I thought maybe if 11.7 went away then it might decrease their ability to recruit but honestly if Austin Riley, Blaze Jordan, or Austin Kendrick would've wanted to come to State we would've found a way to put them on full scholarship. Now don't get me wrong the HOPE scholarships do help Vandy, but they're ability to convince kids like Tyler Beede, Kumar Rocker, or Jack Leiter to come to school is what won't go away.Quote:

Lol, article says he was punched by a State fan. I love it. Whichever one of you guys that did it, I'd like to buy you a beer or three.
