Imagine that..

My intellectual curiosity asks if this is free, as the statement does not say. Sorry if this is common knowledge for Gampel (unfortunately, I've not been in years). I don't know if this is a new offering or is existing.

Maybe the Horde can stop whining about it on Twitter now.

Any word on if available near the urinals? Asking for friend. @Chief00

God forbid anyone has to spend 2 hours watching a basketball game without the internet

 

[casual-yardin]

So people at the games can post here now? Sounds promising....

It’s nice to get more advance stats during the games and check the boneyard/twitter for things you miss when at the game.

Gracias. The original image shared was a bit hard to see on my phone, even in landscape mode. This is an awesome offering. I hope we use it well and that we're able to reap some benefits from this. I can imagine social media-wise we'll see a spike. I can't tell you how many times at sporting events I've not been able to share gametime info as it happens.

 

[UConnDad]

This is such a priority. Wonder what it cost. Are there people without cell service that rely solely on WiFi?

I liked the fact that there were no internetz in Gampel. I would leave my phone in the car and enjoy the game and the company. People nowadays are literally addicts to their phone - its a sad state of society.

 

[Chief00]

Overdue.

 

[formerlurker]

Boohoo. We didn't get cable TV in dorms until my Sophomore year (90') and we survived.

 

[Devland]

And I will still leave my phone in the car.

When I see someone on the highway texting and driving I honk my horn at them. You get some pretty good reactions. They look like you woke them out of a sound sleep and they don't know where they are.

So basically what Panera and Starbucks and McDs has been doing since 2010....

It's been about 5 or so years since I worked on the UCONN campus, but as with alot of college campuses, they are some of the fastest bandwidths around. Wonder if Gample is throttled back.
