POLL Should the boosters let our fake sellout streak end?

[Poor_and_Stupid]

It’s already embarrassing that we are still pretending this streak exists. Arrogant jackass Frost is more than worthy of the dubious honor of ending it.

 

[Baron Winnebago]

I just don't see an upside but sure why not?

 

[Mavsker]

I'm in the minority here but this is an emotional reaction imo. There's nothing fraudulent about the sell-out streak. The tickets are sold.
"But the stadium isn't completely full!" OK but that's not what sell-out means.
"But the tickets are discounted!" Tickets to Northwestern football games cost $7 and they can't sell half of them.
"But it will send a message that we're not happy!" Like I said, "emotional reaction"

Burn everything to the ground, then we rise like a phoenix from the ashes.

 

[Juro]

Depends. If Frost is gone, why ruin it now? The streak will continue with the new HC.

If Frost is retained, then go for it. Nothing sends a message to the TC than ending the sellout streak.

With that said, how do you end a sellout streak unless you're a big booster that is already buying the tickets up?

Or just burn everything down and lay dead in a pile of ashes

The more likely outcome indeed.

If we hire Craig Bohl I vote yes.

I don’t understand why people care about this streak so much that boosters prop it up.

It only matters as a proxy for fan support, so propping it up is completely incoherent.

It's over bros. End it.

There are a couple large companies that need to stop buying tickets en masse

Or just burn everything down and lay dead in a pile of ashes

Or dying in a pile of crabs after last nights House of the Dragon

They should have years ago. It’s really dumb

I've read croot interviews where they talked about it, so at least at the margins, it has some upside. I wouldn't say to go out and fake one of one doesn't already exist, but I don't really see the benefit of ending it. Wouldn't blame people for giving up though

Need TO to pass so the devil can finally claim his soul and Nebraska has a chance to enter purgatory, it's our only hope at this point.

The program has been dead in a pile of ashes for some time ina slow burn. May as well throw some gas on that sumbitch

 

[doublewing]

I don't care if they extend or end it. If we don't start winning it will force a decision for the latter.

On tickets and home games, now is the time of year where you start seeing multiple posts per day on Husker Message Boards where people are trying to dump their Directional State tickets. I always find it funny where they think they'll get face value for them.
