G-Day Update

Chip Towers has your G-Day update. He talks about who will and won't play. Nothing overly unexpected. All of the papers had this morning's news about Jeff Owens missing the rest of spring, Ben Jones is battling hard for playing time along the OL, and Mo Mass has a minor neck issue.

My biggest note for Spring is pretty simple. If you didn't buy your tickets get there very early. In the years that I've gone to G-Day there have been about 15,000-22,000 fans there. Mostly, they have around 19k ... give or take.

In those years, getting into the game is a bit of a hassle. The ticket lines are long and staffed thinly, and it takes a while to get everyone in. You would think that it would be a relatively quick transaction.

There's 1 product to buy.
It costs 1 price.
Boom. Move on.

But it always seems that about one in ten people like to use their time at the ticket window to renegotiate their home mortgage, sign up for the Peace Corp, or attempt a hostile takeover of Microsoft.

If you don't have tickets, get to the window early. I'm expecting about 30,000-35,000 fans. Accuweather calls for temperatures around 65-69 degrees and mostly cloudy. If that forecast holds up, it'll be a big crowd.
