FF Survey
« on: November 19, 2018, 03:00:09 PM »
Marquette sent out a survey to season ticket holders today regarding the FF experience so far.
My two cents....
1. Turn off the frickin A/C;
2. Remove the microphone from the hand of the female mc.

It seemed to me both of those issues had been addressed prior to the last game.  I didn't notice a steady breeze out of the north, and she wasn't screaming into the microphone against Presbyterian.
However, the find the money blindfold bit did hold up the game, effectively changing the momentum into MU's favor.  So, now I'm a big fan of hers!

First game we've been to this year.  If the female mc issue got fixed, then I am glad I missed the first 2 games.  That is just plain awful.  My wife was holding her ears.

The look on Sam Hauser's face while they were waiting on the floor for that stupid skit to end was priceless...

I listened to Homer for the PC game. I could hear that lady screaming over Homer for one of the promotions. Hearing that alone tells me nothing was fixed.
As far as the A/C goes, that is great to hear...however I’m still skeptical it’s been resolved.

Good job by MU getting feedback though. Between the pricing process and this, you can’t say they haven’t made it possible for us to give feedback easily.

If MCs are here to stay, why can't they be rotating students from the College of Communication?

If the question was simply whether you wanted an MC or not, would anyone (other than the MC) say yes? I have never talked to ANYONE who actually liked the MC at a basketball game.

They had a floor MC off and on the past few years. Have you talked to anyone who actually dislikes it?

MCs are turrible.

They've almost managed to turn an MU game completely into a Bucks game.

I mentioned that between the weak-armed cheerleaders and the poorly placed parachute launchers, no one in the upper deck has a prayer of getting a t-shirt.
Have some patience, FFS.

If you want a t-shirt the place to be is sec 114 rows 20 and higher. Every 3 that MU made....the girl can out of the tunnel and threw 2-3 T-shirt’s to sec 114. Next time down, MU hits a 3......girls starts chucking T-shirt’s. I’m not exaggerating when I saw her throw 20+ T-shirts.

They pick a new section for that every game.

Outside of the bowl, the FF is very underwhelming.

What happened to the 1st timeout Dance Party?

VS. Carroll, the music was loud and it was dark for the entire timeout.

In each game since, the student sections have been lit up, and the music has gotten lamer, quieter, and for a shorter duration.  Soon, we will be turning additional lights on, and having a moment of silence.

LAME that we can't do something cool and unique for 1 timeout a game, because a few sweater vests complained.

I think this has more to do with NCAA rules than sweater vests. Turning the lights off during a timeout could prevent coaches from being able to actually coach.

That would explain why it was only done for the exhibition game...  Too bad, I thought is was pretty cool, and so did my kids.

Exactly.  How will our players know they’re in the bonus if we’re turning lights off during timeouts?

Wasnt able to attend the game vs. BCU

It was against ncaa rules. They also turned off the mics that pumped crowd noise in (thank god)
