She was clearly the greatest business mind in our generation. Her main point was about how retaining existing ticket holders is less costly than bringing in new ones.

Her question...what is CU doing about retaining existing ticket holders?

The worst part about Husker Lady was that she was pissed off and coming hard... based on completely misunderstanding a previous call and RG's response.

Someone called in to say that some long-time season ticket holders were canceling because they can't park on Franklin.

RG responded with how important the new facilities are, apologized about the parking situation, said they are doing all they can this year but with the construction the options are limited, and said that they very much value fan retention.

Husker Lady then calls to say that she's pissed that RG seems to have his head so far up his ass that he thinks the only thing long-time season ticket holders are upset about is the parking situation.
 
Some people aren't happy unless they are complaining about something.She seemed like one of those people to me.

Loved how MM said "beat their butts" a couple times

Had to be done. For stadium convenience, all those folks will get indoor parking that's even more convenient as soon as next year.

I think the main issues are as follows:

1. Old people fear change.
2. Rich people get pissed when they, of all people, get inconvenienced.
3. Long-time CU supporters viewed having a parking pass there as a status symbol in their social circles.

Go to the island.

I don't mind the complaining so much as how it was obvious that she and the "parking problem" caller ahead of her obviously felt that this isn't mostly about the student-athletes and the students... that their desires should take precedence.

And, yeah, MacIntyre was funny with that. He sounds confident that this team is ready to play some football and win some games.

The whole team seems to have a very quiet but very confident look about them

Years ago didn't all the old time fans melt down when there was talk of increasing the annual scholarship donation for many of the premium seating locations? Many blue hairs err long time fans thought CU was trying to force them out of some of the prime seats.

Yes this happened
 
As 4db so elegantly noted they are reducing the number of places in franklin not eliminating them I still have my pass
 
I have been a season ticket holder for only 15 years now and got to keep my FF pass. It makes me wonder how much support some of the folks that have been ticket holders for a lot longer than that actually give on a year to year basis if they are getting displaced from FF.
