Game 10, 2025: Northern Illinois (11/12)
Re: Game 10, 2025: Northern Illinois (11/12)
Wind chill at game time? "Feel like" temp in mid-30's with wind to 19MPH. Over/under on butts in the seats?

Yikes, you have to be a hearty fan to watch this team in that type of cold. I have a feeling the hangar will be the place where most people stay all game

I was thinking of driving out to the Happy Valley for this battle of MAC Juggernauts. .... subject to the weather. How cold are we talking? 30's..... might keep me open my couch and skipping the 3.5 hr round trip.
Re: Game 10, 2025: Northern Illinois (11/12)
Too early for the 48 hourly forecast, but it's 43 degrees with a SW wind 10-15 mph, and the low being 33 degrees with light and variable winds. So I'd say upper 30's the whole time, which is pretty easy to dress for unless you are just up here from Florida. What I really dislike is heavy steady rain and even worst is cold heavy rain. This is no rain in the forecast. Jack, if I didn't have two friends going to the game, would have offered you one of my Hunt Hospitality Suite passes so you can always go inside and warm up. I used like the old bathrooms as they seemed supper warm on cold days. So my once or twice trip also served as a bit of warm.Jack wrote: Mon Nov 10, 2025 9:47 am I was thinking of driving out to the Happy Valley for this battle of MAC Juggernauts. .... subject to the weather.

How much more does one need to donate in order to qualify for Hunt Hospitality Suite Passes? ..... I checked... My pithy MVP level donation wasn't All American level which is what is needed for passes to the Hunt Hospitality Suite.

Re: Game 10, 2025: Northern Illinois (11/12)
Don't care anymore ...........think we have a tiny chance we get this one.....3 more losses this season and 24 next 2 seasons and I think that's all she writes. MAC boots us. so laughable on X all the UConn fans think they beat Ohio State and won the national championship or something. Lets get real: they beat a pitiful BC team ( my son went to the game) and beat a bunch of G5 teams and Duke. This was definitely a trap game for Duke. Non conference. UConn hasnt beaten a ranked team all year they think they won the National Championship.

The Zoo!!!!
Re: Game 10, 2025: Northern Illinois (11/12)
Just wondering: I lived in Washington middle. Do the floors still play each other in pickup football games?

No idea - I lived in JFK on a Coed floor - we were too busy playing other games. 
Re: Game 10, 2025: Northern Illinois (11/12)
$2,500 for 2 passes as long as you have matching ST as well. This year if there was space, they allowed you to get extras, provided you had the Season Tickets for $100. I did this and was denied for a couple of games but did get the MACtion games. Will probably hit the 5k donation as long as nothing shocking happens. Still will only carry 3 season Tickets. One for me, a game or two for family and the rest to friends.Jack wrote: Mon Nov 10, 2025 11:07 am How much more does one need to donate in order to qualify for Hunt Hospitality Suite Passes? .....

Re: Game 10, 2025: Northern Illinois (11/12)
Thanks Steve - I was cheap ... only $1000 + STs which is MVP level but not enough for All America which includes the Hunt Hospitality Suite. So I get to freeze...

Definitely not leaving the Hangar to watch a winless team in the cold. Might even head uptown to a concert at The Drake instead of watching this team.Quann wrote: Mon Nov 10, 2025 8:23 am Yikes, you have to be a hearty fan to watch this team in that type of cold.

Stadium is going to look really sad on the U. At least most MAC fans will be watching the Toledo Miami game.

Good shout right there with The Drake. The Ryan Montbleau Band is playing there on Wednesday night. He's been around a while and is a talented artist. I recommend checking his music out if you're looking for an alternative to the game.Camby4Life wrote: Mon Nov 10, 2025 1:26 pm Definitely not leaving the Hangar to watch a winless team in the cold.
