Bruh the simple fact is the school made it as hard as possible for the students to have fun at the tailgates. There is no arguing with it. Imo its just unneccessary. What exactly is the reason fraternities cant bus in a bunch of students? Imo it prevents drunk driving and it bring in some student who otherwise likely wouldn't go to the game. The problem with the School provided buses are that the earliest ones leave so late that by the time you get there 30 minutes later, it takes another 15 minutes to walk to your tailgate, and then by then you only have 30 minutes before you gotta leave to get to your seats for kickoff. (the bus rides back are awesome though, and most people nap on it so that when they get back they're ready to go out and celebrate the win).Well, no *****. I have season tickets so yes I do know what I am talking about. I have a freshman this year at Miami so I expect him to drop by and say hello considering I live in Virginia. I also expect him to hang out with his friends. I told him about this and his response was what a bunch of pussies, register, jump on the bus and STFU. I've tailgated at quite a few road games as well as at Annapolis, West Point and Colorado Springs. Yes, it may inconvenience some of the frat kids. I also spoke to a lot of the First Year Fellows, Resident Assistants, etc. at last week's Cane Fest and everybody seems to be very excited about this season and going to games. Using the Canes Card certainly makes it easy. If they expect an overflow, then I have no problem with it going this route either.
Students should have fun in college. Everyones always on a mission to destroy the college atmosphere, and I really don't get why. Let them tailgate and drink and party. And if it bothers you (not directly you, just anyone who it does) seeing the students get trashed, well then you should be disappointed in the changes the school is making by taking away/limiting the designated students tailgating areas and putting them near families and ****.
Obviously the students are going to be excited for the season because we are going to be legit this year and in the future.
The Registering thing is not a big deal, they basically already used a similar system back in the early 2010's.
