Uconn First Night 2022

Would seem to be a sell-out based on tickets distributed:

Complete bs it should be open to the public. I’m in Kansas working in Topeka and was able to get get a ticket for first night for free with shaq in the house as DJ and they are raising their national championship banner. Chances are I’ll be heading out Thursday but point is I’m not a season ticket holder, this is a bigger more exclusive event and yet I was able to get a FREE ticket (albeit from a local high school connection cause of work)

UConn is doing this all wrong just as AD DB has done his whole tenure

IDK dude. If Gampel is full with students and season ticket holders, clearly something is going right. Just my 2c, but there's limited seats and season ticket holders have been begging for perks for years. This is a perk.

My friend can't make it to First Night anymore. If anyone wants to go I can transfer the extra ticket I have over

I might have missed it, but I didn’t see this mentioned anywhere today:

Is the timing of this visit somehow related to the name of the UConn football team's opponent this weekend?

No, Andre Jackson. They should just name Ayanna Patterson the dunk contest winner without having them dunk.

Samson Johnson might have something to say about that

 

[3rdbass]

Where is Hawk? Did I miss something?

Yeah no Hawk? Is he still injured? Something more serious? Never mind I missed it too with his hoodie on lol!

 

[millertime7774]

Already technical difficulties with sound?

 

[superjohn]

I can't do it, this feed is horrendous.

I don't understand why this is always such a huge problem for UConn.

And people complained about the FIU ESPN3 production for last week's football game.

FloSports has always been abysmal.

 

[k-walk]

Was that it??

 

[SteelCT]

Was that it??

Im showing event concluded…thought there would be a scrimmage?

 

[JustbrewitMan]

Samson threw down some NASTY dunks

 

[superjohn]

They should probably just scrap this thing. Once upon a time it was cool when it was at midnight and they scrimmaged. Now it's just a bunch of people standing around, a coed three point contest and a few guys doing bad dunks.

No wonder we had no recruits visit besides solo

Yeah no scrimmage? Waste of time as that dunk contest was putrid. Hawks has better in game dunks than ones in the contest especially why he has to bite someone else's dunk. ugh

 

[UCOnions]

Why play a scrimmage and risk potential injury... I think its fine just being a introduction, dunk contest (3pt contest?), concert.

 

[Huskyforlife]

No scrimmage is pathetic tbh. You have a full arena of fans, give them the show they came for.

Why'd they choose captains and pick teams for no scrimmage?!

I have never met a bigger group of complainers. It's a silly sideshow so the college kids can get drunk after midterms. The septegenarians on the yard are not the target audience here or it would have been at 4pm and included access to werther's originals. Good grief

To be fair, Werther's are delicious

Seriously though, excellent post. Too many people just enjoy being cranky. Let the kids in college be college kids.

You're younger, you weren't going to the event back when it was at midnight and a fun event for college kids. Not sure about your 4pm and Werther's comment. 6:45 is now the time for a fun event for college kids? That kind of says it all right there.
Also, Werther's have always been awesome but the Callard and Bowser butterscotches I used to eat as a kid were next level.

Seemed to be having plenty of fun to me.
