Students to St Pete ideas, suggestions.

So after some thought and some quick donations it looks like we will be able to provide at least one and maybe two students airfare, hotel, a game ticket, the uconn sponsored reception and uber money to and from the airport. I propose holding the contest like we did last time... convince the boneyard that you're worthy of our love. If you're a student, please chime in to let us know that you'd be interested. I'm finding a flight from BDL to TPA on 12/25, returning on 12/27. Asking students to be flexible with departure times on Xmas day. This will avoid someone winning and then not being able to get it done. If you donate to the cause HERE, you'll have the right to vote on the winner. Thanks everyone for suggestions on getting this done. I know the students from the Fiesta Bowl appreciated it. Hopefully we can get the same response for this game. I don't want to be the sole arbiter of this whole thing, so please do feel free to make suggestions still. Thanks.

If you were staying at my hotel, there's a free shuttle to/from TPA and the game.

I did plan on sending them to your hotel.. Great. Money saved.

@Jarhead_1775 when are you shutting down the Tilt page? Are you just gonna start buying tix and making accommodations as the money comes in?

Yup, I agree on the contest. No Spackler-esque essays - 100-200 words of blue and white. It would be nice if the winners would make a pledge to pay it forward down the road too.
