Nebraska Game Week - Prime: “This is personal. That’s the message of the week.”

What are you saying is not true? He never said season ticket holders could not sell there tickets and was only commenting on the size of the secondary market.

To summarize the conversation for those who are having a hard time following, yes, you can sell your tickets, and yes, people are selling their tickets. What we are getting at is HOW MANY people are selling those tickets. To believe that a real 60/40 split is happening, you gotta take away 11k student seats and 1500 visitor tickets. Assuming all visitor tickets are Nub fans, you're then left trying to get 18500 seats. With 37500 left, you've got have almost 50% of them selling their seats AND all of those tickets being bought by Nubs.

That's hard to believe.
 
Here's one in Brighton. They call their runzas "krautburgers". Gotta admit they're really good. In any event, beware Nubs invading through Adams County.

Haven't been to the place in Brighton but don't disparage a real krautburger by calling it a runza.

The krautburger has been around longer than we have had red polyester or the mouthbreathing fans that wear it while they continue to pretend their team is relevant in todays college football.

The runza is a derivation of the original krautburger which came with ethnic Germans from the Volga Germans of Russia.

A true krautburger is a nicely seasoned combination of ground meat, sauerkraut, and onions baked in a pocket of bread dough. A runza, just like most Nebraska fans is a greasy, sloppy, version of this that lacks true taste and form.

I, for one, would really appreciate it if the clock would move more quickly

You are a gift my brother and I thank you for your runza input. During my semi-recent post retirement work in Weldco we stumbled across a runza place in Ault. Name escapes me. Did you know that there’s a vertical sign in Ault that says it’s “A Unique Little Town”, with the first letters bolded? But alas, tract homes are popping up…
 
MtnBuff PS: My late FIL’s German ancestors ditched Russia under duress after they were lied to. Swam the Volga to get out. How so many ended up in northern Colo I don’t know.

(“RooShins”)

His folk ended up up in western Neb, although he became a proud out of state grad of CU.

Desmond Howard was in Boulder yesterday so have to figure there will at least be a segment during tomorrow's show.
I got home and they were replaying First Take. Umm, they were talking to Desmond. Get this, Screaming A said he's going be there, along with Shannon Sharpe. :D

Way back my paternal grandfather worked for the Canadian Pacific Railroad recruiting people out of Eastern Europe to come over and settle the lands the Canadian Government had given the railroads as a part of building Canada's transcontinental railway.

Many Germans including Russian Germans as well as many other ethnic groups from Russia come over and settled in the Western Canadian Plains, what is now Saskatchewan and Alberta. The climate and thus thus the farming was very similar to what they had experienced in Russia except in North America instead of being effectively serfs they could work to own their own land and farms.

Many of these same people found their way to Eastern Colorado and Western Nebraska for the same reasons. In some cases entire villages came over together and were settled together. A century later in these areas it is still possible to find cultural reminders of where they came from including on the menus of local cafes.

I have some amazing stories of my grandfather that are too long to put here.
