  1. I find it pretty interesting that when the Nano College was tied to UA, it seemed to get lots of national recognition and praise...even a visit from a sitting president. Ever since the split, I haven't heard so much of a peep about them and now it's embroiled in scandal. Ironic, considering that the Nano College was pulled away from UAlbany because its leader thought it we were holding them back.

  2. To follow up on Jimbo's in a nutshell: The reason I was given to stadium seats not allowed is that angry fans can throw them on the field. When I asked what is the difference if I throw my seat on the field or UA's seat on the field--here it comes: they will supposedly be bolting the UA stadium seats to your bleacher location. The problem I see with this, is what about the casual fan who comes to the game and is willing to pay his $5 for a stadium game day seat. Boom an unbolted projectile and I am defenseless since my weapon is screwed into the bleachers. Which brings me to a second point. This Saturday I am going to the game with a group of 6 or 7 friends. The ticket price in my season area is too expensive so we will be sitting elsewhere. Since my seat is now bolted in place, I cannot move it to the new area. This is really only a one game inconvenience--no biggie; but my old stadium seat is really no more than two cushions stitched together with a couple of side straps. Entirely made off FABRIC with a couple of plastic strips--not a steel framed weapon like the UA version.

     

    Anyhow after listening to the asst. athletic director's explanation (some of which did not add up; like the rule has been in effect for 4 years--I read the policy procure every year cover to cover & the warning posted on the entrance gates never mentioned this rule), I pretty much thanked him for my non-weapon screwed in seat and hung up on such nonsense.

     

    They're going to bolt stadium seats to the bleacher location? That seems ridiculous. So some areas of the bleachers will have seats and others wont? LOL

    wow, that place is nice. wish it was around when I was a student! kids these days have it easy :)

     

    Yeah, I lived in a house that was falling down on Quail Street next to the Going Greek store.

     

     

    Yep, I know where that is. I lived on Hudson in the late 90's. A buddy of mine went back recently and sent me a pic of the house. I was shocked that it was still standing. What a $iena hole
