"thats why we used to switch out with friends that didnt have class at the time. I can remember several afternoons where I sat out there and did homework or research papers...in fact, most people did, its not like we were tailgating out there for 5 hours every few days."

that's great for you, but i work on-campus, and have to be at my office most of the time. sitting out by reynolds even for an hour at a time really isn't very possible from 9-5.

it's a basketball game, not some competition to see who's the most hardcore fan.

i don't mind some of the best seats going to campout people or whatever, but i don't think that it should mean that people who can't dedicate that sort of time are kept from attending games.

let me clairfy. Its not that there was a huge line for tickets right at noon. You could show up after 5 to get in line and still get them, but it was just that the groups that wanted to make the effort to get out there for the whole afternoon would get the best tickets. Also, not everyone had to be there to get the tickets, just one person had to hold the ID's.

the student section needs to be called "Code Red"

we can contact Pepsico and get them to make free shirts for us

and a free 2-liter after a win

2/13/2006 1:50:32 PM

that'l be a perfect addition to our advertising dictatorship

2/13/2006 1:52:21 PM

right, because the RBC center needs MORE advertising...

motherfucker, i'm talking about free T-shirts

find me a college student who doesn't like free shirts and I'll slap the both of you

2/13/2006 1:55:37 PM

Thought State was a Coca-Cola school....

2/13/2006 1:56:29 PM

free shirts would be nice, pepsi ain't gonna work tho

2/13/2006 1:58:23 PM

they wouldn't need any advertising rights

they're not using "Pack"/ "Wolfpack"/ "State"/ "NCSU"/ "NC State"/ etc so it's not like they would have to get permission from the university to hand out shirts

i mean, Geico handed out advertisement stuff. Allstate AND Geico both advertise at RBC. no conflict there.

I think Code Red is a great name for the student section. and it is widely marketable

2/13/2006 2:03:33 PM

Free T-Shirts are the only reason I wake up in the morning

2/13/2006 2:14:15 PM

i took about 20 shirts to Goodwill yesterday

and I STILL have a dresser-full and a shelf in my closet devoted to T-shirts


and 75% of them were free

2/13/2006 2:15:21 PM

I got some sweet shirts from Slick Deals

2/13/2006 2:22:38 PM

i like how page 2 has become a "tell me about your t-shirt" thread.

2/13/2006 2:27:46 PM

I dont think i own a tshirt I bought my self

2/13/2006 2:27:57 PM

they only shirts I have ever bought are from the frat or NC State stuff

the rest are from Visa, Jiffy Lube, apartment complexes, slickdeals, etc

2/13/2006 2:30:54 PM

I think the students should all wear their Gym T-shirts to the games.

Nothing says team spirit quite like:

XXL
1987
NCSU Athletics Department

Chevy was giving away free t-shirts on slickdeals the other day to promore their new hybrid SUV's

2/13/2006 2:40:10 PM

Ive been to Clemson, Wake, and UNC. I would dare say our section is EXTREMELY better than Clemson, and SLIGHTLY better than Wake and UNC.

Ours is #3 in the ACC behind Cameron and Comcast. But thats just my opinion.

2/13/2006 3:10:40 PM

^ what about Boston College?

their student section is GINORMOUS

^^ you're joking right. first off BC's students are farther from the court than ours. also they only make up the end seats. it makes up sections E, F, G, H and Q, R, S, T. the Conte Forum seats only 8,606.

panthro didnt even go to the UVA game how can he say some of this crap

2/13/2006 6:17:08 PM

the fans that are on here that say we're #3 in the conference behind Duke and Maryland aren't NC State homers. most other fans in the conference think ours is third as well. well some Carolina and Wake fans might be too biased and say theirs is above us. i've seen other fans on boards rank us 3rd, and i know i read online articles by both Maryland (The Diamondback something) and UVA ranking 1,2, and 3 as Duke, Maryland, and NC State.

2/13/2006 6:19:51 PM

Any Wake fan who thinks the Joel has a better atmosphere than RBC is full of shit.


I went to the Duke games here and at Joel in 2003 when we beat them, then wake beat them. Their crowd was loud and everything for most of the game, but they were as loud for the DUKE game as we are for UMD or UVA. They were loud to start out, then got quiet, then got REALLY loud at the end...which is about our progression through normal games.

That year, we made RBC pwn Joel, and that was during the height of Wake's "good fan" years. They have crawled back into their holes now though. Nobody in winston gives a shit anymore.


But I'd still put us tied for 2 with UMD....they're a little closer to the floor, but they're also douche bags. I think VT has the potential to be the most intimidating in that little gym...like Duke, they just dont have the team.

while i agree, that stat is irrelevant

2/13/2006 6:30:26 PM

how is it irrelevant? 19,722 can make more noise than 8,606. plus they don't have the luxury of a low ceiling height like Duke, so it's harder for them to compete against us.

2/13/2006 7:53:11 PM

it is irrelevant b/c Duke holds barely more

and students make up about the same in any stadium so 19000 prb seats about the same students as 9000, where it matters anyway.

i'm gonna enjoy sitting on my ass in the alumni section. i'm not gonna make a sound either, except to criticize the team.

well, i'll be a n00b, so it's best not to ruffle any feathers and do what i can to fit in.

2/14/2006 5:40:01 PM

I'VE ONLY BEEN TO A FEW GAMES THIS YEAR....SO FAR I HAVEN'T BEEN IMPRESSED WITH THE PARTICIPATION....NOT MUCH OF AN ATMOSPHERE...I WOULD ALMOST RATHER WATCH THE GAME ON TV.....ITS TOO BAD....THIS IS PROBABLY THE BEST TEAM WE HAVE HAD IN 10-15 YEARS AND NO ONE GETS REALLY EXCITED AT GAMES......I PROBABLY WON'T GET SEASON TICKETS AGAIN NEXT YEAR

THAT BEING SAID...I'LL BE THERE WITH MY SON TOMORROW

[Edited on February 14, 2006 at 5:56 PM. Reason : AHA]

2/14/2006 5:55:50 PM

i sat midcourt section 105 row d last game and it was fucking pathetic. Im not referring to anyone when i say this but "you people" who are on the sidelines PLEASE stand up the whole fucking game, yes this means timeouts as well...thats what you do at a sporting event. Please cheer and don't have convo's we have the whole night tommorow after the game to do that....hell even with a beer. If i see this crowd sucking like I have I will yell like I do every other game and say GET THE HELL UP!!! i mean even at the end when we do our song with the trumpets half of the people are sitting down. thats the most fun part of the game. Also at the end if we win...please stick around for the little NNNNNNNNNN CCCCCCCCCCCCC STATTTTTTTTTTTTE song. thanks

^ you mean the alma mater.

Where the winds of Dixie softly blow o'er the
fields of Caroline,
There stands ever cherished, N.C. State, as thy
honored shrine
So lift your voices! Loudly sing from hill to
oceanside!
Our hearts ever hold you, N.C. State in the folds
of our love and pride.

i know it and sing it everytime. they put the words up on the jumbotron, for those that don't know it.

also when i say "from hill to oceanside" i wave my right arm from the left to right denoting from the west to the east. it would be cool if everyone did it.

And yeah people need to get the fuck up and get louder during the games


But seriously, during timeouts? no


I sit behind the opposing teams bench for most games, and I'll stand up and OOOOOHHHHH at them with the rest ofthe section when they call a timeout, but during TV timeouts, I'll sit down if I want. I cheer loud as fuck while we're playing and yell at the opposing teams bench, but by the second half I need a rest during timeouts. That shit is tough when you have something to say to everyone of the opposing teams bench warmers.

Plus, everyone else acts like its too much to ask to be loud while we're on Defense, I'm not gonna go a step further and tell them to stand during timeouts.
