Maybe a post game cookout for the students ?I agree with noeynox and kemba. The students taking the buses don't get to cook and relax at their cars after the game like you and I. I took those buses back to campus a few times before I found a friend to hitch a ride with and whose family welcomed lots of us to their tailgate. I remember how much it sucked getting stuck in traffic leaving the stadium and getting back to my dorm close to midnight after a night game. Find incentives to keep the students, sure, but forcing them to stay is going to keep lots on campus.
UConn had that over the years… the Husky entrance to Carmina Burana is forever etched in my brain.I am a Pats season ticket holder too (I spend as much time at football games as possible). They have a great in-stadium atmosphere. The Pats enter the field to a mix of "Crazy Train", "Carmina Burana", and "For Those About To Rock, We Salute You". They show the players on the jumbotron as they get ready to enter. The whole place goes nuts. I can't hear Ozzy say, "All aborad! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!" without thinking of the Pats.
UCONN needs some of that.
Yeah! I'd donate a few dollars even to make it happen.Maybe a post game cookout for the students ?
