It's like football lent. I'll give up non-alcoholic beer until that day.

Did we miss Mardi Grad last night?

Probably. I feel like that was your responsibility.

Next year I think we should have a thing

First of all, I have no flippin' idea what Mardi Grad is. That never happened when I had a flip phone.

I was thinking @Smoker would have that covered for us. Should have checked with him sooner. My bad.

Here's article with some different perspectives from Cornhusker fans as well as a perspective from Gerry Dinardo. The excerpt below is not from Dinardo...

“That’s the one thing with the spring game: No one loses,” Benes laughs. “You go there and everybody’s happy.”

And without it?

“My kids wouldn’t be fans,” he replies. “We took them to a game [in the fall] and we took them to the spring game — that’s the one we knew we could go to and could afford back when they were 5 and 6. There’s no worries. It’s just fun.”

One of those boys, Cory, grew up to study genetics at Iowa State. A Cyclones degree and a Huskers heart. Always.

“They really understand what it means to be a Husker, even though they didn’t grow up in Nebraska,” Benes says.

Thanks for the link AllN, interesting read.

And the secondary avenues, no shock, haven’t been especially kind since: Last month, tickets to the April 21 exhibition were going for up to $657 at TicketCity.com — a higher top end than the most expensive regular-season seat at 22 other Power 5 programs.

“The majority of people in my inner circle, a lot of them whom I would describe as diehard fans, would not pay that amount,” Fisher says. “I can honestly say I don’t know anybody that would pay.”

$657 bucks for a spring game? Even as epic as this spring game is lining up to be? NO WAY!
