Why Savage Hall blows...

10 reasons I hate Savage Hall (based on my observations at the recently played BG-Flying Penis Trade School game):
1. The usher told the very young BG fan to put away the thundersticks he brought to the game. What a douche bag.
2. Flying Penis fans can't read their tickets. Douche bags tried to move me from my seat twice.
3. The scoreboard doesn't show the possession arrow. Instead it shows time outs. Nice touch.
4. The pep band players don't obey the uniform rule. Many of the members were in plain shirts, jeans or shorts. Looked like bums.
5. $3.25 for a soda? $3.75 for a popcorn? 4 candy choices? Concessions were overpriced and lacking variety. Go to Sam's Club and buy something to sell.
6. Rocky Rocketmandumbass is dressed like a NASCAR driver. Why?
7. The PA announcer sounds like he smoked three joints before the game. He sounds more like a 1970's AOR disc jockey..."And that's the latest from Fleetwood Mac at K-Penis...You've got the Giant Douche Bag on your FM...and you can join me Saturday at the CVS on Bancroft as I broadcast live...first 50 people who stop by get a free bag of ice...after we pay the bills, I have some Yes comin' at ya, so don't you go changin'..."
8. What's with the dance mix that is played when an change in the Toledo line-up is announced...Boom Chucka Boom...In for Keith "Stupid" Triplett...#24 Sammy "No Game" Veeeeeeeeejjjjjjjjjguuuusssssssss...Boom Chucka Boom...
9. Stupid fans hung a chicken under the north basket and referred to choking chickens. That is pure class.
10. The "Just Like Football" cheer. How stupid are these guys? They forgot BG came back from 17 at Anderson and almost came back from 11 at Savage. Joplin should have been fired during the second half because his team came out incredibly flat AGAIN.
11. They have a giant flying penis painted on the floor.
OK, so it goes to 11. I just saw a Spinal Tap video. Sue me.
My gawd, I hate that place.

Excellent use of the term "Douche Bag"

How about all the different colored seats? What UT graduate designed that?

I've only been in that dump once in my lifetime....AA, with all its shortcomings, BLOWS that dungheap away.
Would have been great to steal that one last night. I told Mrs Freak that when BG made that run at the start of the 2nd half, we were gonna do that same thing again...just didn't get the shots to fall last night.
BEAT KENT STATE!!

My gawd, I hate that place.
1. artificial noisemakers are not allowed at ANY NCAA basketball game while the game is going.
2. it's not our fault you only paid for one ticket but took up two seats.
3. you'd be back here complaining if it did say possession instead of timeouts if you needed to know that during the game.
4. I'll have to print out the pep band constitution from the NCAA webpage for them.
5. ok, got me on this one...agree with you here.
6. maybe he was going out with a BG girl afterwards and needed to wear all the protection he could get.
7. When you have a football announcer like ours, this guy is frickin awesome.
8. added a nice touch, sorry if you didn't like their choice of music, maybe a little jazz?
9. get your head out of the gutter, learn your marketing campaigns and learn your mascot. I'm sure you're referring to the "b!g choke" sign which had the words "b!g choke" then a falcon underneath choking. Don't think any innuendos were intended, but we'll have to keep pervs like you in our thoughts when making future signs.
10. that was at your place, this was here. We would've razzed you more there if the weather wasn't so crappy.
11. what's up with your penis envy? you've said the word penis 4 times and made one reference to choking the chicken. get help, seems like all you see is penis, but yet don't know what one looks like(judging that our half-court logo bears no resemblence).
calling my lawyer to press charges right now.
sorry, taking a break from studying and NCAAbbs is down so figured I'd come ruffle a few feathers.

I saw some stupidity and irony in this sign considering the Kim Zemeskal you guys pulled at our place.
And what do you have against the Frickin' Chicken? I love Fricker's, man!

As stupid as you, last year you guys did the exact same cheer. And if you get beat by a team in football in a game that matters and that team wins the championship, does that mean you are better because you won your bowl game?
I thought the game last night was one of the worst UT BG games I have ever seen, both teams played sloppy and it was hard for the fans to really get in it. Both teams go to players were basically no factor in the game. The turnout of UT fans was poor, and the turnout of BG fans was poor.
Savage Hall is a dump, but no more than Anderson is. Savage has become an eye soar, but it doesn’t suck for the reasons you said it does, it sucks because it’s old, and to big. Anderson sucks because it’s old and to small.
I would rather have one dump (Savage) than three (Anderson, the Doyt, and the BGSU campus):lol:
And one more thing SCOREBOARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bird fans calling Savage a dump?

That may be the only thing Stan owns, besides the unemployment check he will have at the end of the season.
It's so nice to rile up the flying penis fans (reference #5).

On their forum we post congratulatory messages. This goes to show you how sore of winners Toledo fans are. Go back to your borrowed forum.

I have to agree with him there. we can't really talk about crappy basketball arenas. The only reason we like ours is because it is home. If you were visiting AA would you think it was nice?

Maybe I wouldn't think it was "nice" but I would think "adequate" and a "good home-court advantage".

Just because Joplin has winning record against Dakich does that mean he is a better coach. Dakich is a far better coach than continual underachieving teams of Stan, that's a no brainer:
Accomplishments During the Dakich Era:
Has Taken the Falcons To five straight MAC Tournaments in Cleveland.
Guided the Falcons to their first MAC Tournament Championship game appearance since 1983.
Has seen two players, Keith McLeod and Anthony Stacey, earn MAC Player of the Year honors.
The Falcons have a 64-44 record in the league over the last five years, the second highest winning percentage among conference schools, in that span.
BGSU won 12 conference games or more in three of the last six years after BGSU had won 66.7 percent of its league games just three previous times in 27 seasons prior to his arrival.
His Falcons have posted two of the five winning road records the school has achieved since 1963.
Has led BGSU to 20-win seasons for the second time in three seasons, the first time BGSU has accomplished that feat since they had six-straight 20-win seasons from 1943-49.
Guided BGSU to a MAC Championship in 1999-2000.
And how many outright regular season MAC championships has Stan won? ZERO!!!!!!!!! How many times has his team reach the MAC tourney final...ZERO. End of discussion as far as I'm concerned
