kreed5120 Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 This is what I was meaning when I said Akron needs to mix up the boring same old entertainment and bring in new acts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hip Zip Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Yep, she was the best I've seen at the JAR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skip-zip Posted January 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 (edited) My wife swears that she's seen her on American's Got Talent, or one of those reality shows. If so, she's probably a big enough star now that she'll never return to the JAR again . Edited January 13, 2017 by skip-zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue & Gold Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 She was in Minny the night PJ was introduced as their new HC. He threw a few bowls up to her at halftime. (I saw it on twitter a few days ago or I'd post the link.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1981 grad Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 Now that the president of the U is a B ball fan, maybe we can bring her back! Best half time show Akron ever had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morris buttermaker Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 If those 11 items aren't enough to get 3,200 fans to the game, I don't know what is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kreed5120 Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Seemed like they almost had a little too much going on (a first I know). I went and picked my mug up at half-time and missed all but the last dunk from the TNT Squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Kangaroo Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Mug line was easily 100 deep at the start of the 2nd half, curling throughout the concession area. Only two people to hand out the mugs, and neither had a cutter to open the boxes. It was sort of a train wreck...but I got my mugs so I'm happy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skip-zip Posted January 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 When I saw two people, I said "oh no". And they were checking names on a multi-page printed list whenever someone needed to be verified. That stopped the line repeatedly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I (we) missed last night's game--- so I know my 3 lower bowl tix were part of that total, but a small step in the right direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Glass house of course, I was unable to make the game last night as well. Side note: I am working on compiling data on MBB, Football, MSoccer and WBB for ZN.O, it's just been time consuming to do. Hopefully it'll help with future discussions on this forum over attendance, just so we have a reference point for which to discuss things 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
