I'll be there. Heck, I'm flying into Toledo from Tampa just so I don't miss it.*

*That was a result of a combined threat between ohiogal and Dr Hayward.

No can do...

I'll be lucky if I make the game, at this point.

Have fun! Don't break your back... EITHER of you!

I've only missed one so far, and don't intend to add to that this year. The one I missed was due to my sisters wedding. I told her never to schedule another wedding on homecoming ever again

I finally just received my registration in the mail yesterday. I emailed Pat and she's helping me out by letting me register by fax and pay when I get there.

I'm taking a break from the never-ending med-school study-a-thon to come march.

Obviously they're doing a good job teaching you hyphenation.

Alas, I will not be there.

Not it.

Regardless, I've never gotten anything in the mail about it anyway. Maybe they're trying to tell me something. Boo.

Sorry, not I. I am swamped with high school football games though December, so I will be elsewhere. Have fun without me LOL!

I going to go out on a limb, but I don't think we will have a large Alumni Band this year. I got my "Mouthpiece" THE DAY registration was due. THE DAY!!!!!! I already know of alumni who were planning to go, but refuse to be part of an organization that treats it's elders with such disrespect.

There might not be any bell-tones during the Alma Mater after this year. I don't know if it's even worth the drive to participate this year. Maybe my $12.00 can be put in a fund to hire someone, besides the band secretary......lord knows she's busy enough, with organizational skills.

The sun always shines..........

GO GET EM TIGERS!!!!!!! GGGGrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Her name is Pat. She came to the office from admissions. She is good, but it is very hard to fill BBQueen's shoes.

The real question is: Does Pat play piano?

She was very helpful when I emailed her to let her know my registration had not arrived as of the 9th. I believe we can still register on gameday when we get there in the morning, but I was also wanting a game ticket for a friend, which you can't get at the last minute. Yeah, I know, I should have printed off a copy when it was emailed to me and sent it in then. Still, is it too much to expect the form to arrive by mail in time for me to send it back before the deadline? I'm not going to pretend to know how difficult it is to get things ready for homecoming, but it's getting very frustrating to see the form arrive later and later every year. Last year was also disappointing with the seating arrangement. I understand that may not have been anyones fault, but this makes two years in a row now that things have been pretty poor. It won't stop me from coming because I enjoy it too much, but I worry that the alumni band will get smaller and smaller if this kind of thing keeps happening. I hope both issues were just flukes. I understand that things do happen. I just hope this isn't a trend.

Hopefully she doesn't get overwhelmed by me doing this, but here is Pats email addy for anyone else who may be in the same boat I was. I don't know if it's too late for her to help anyone else or not. I was asked to have my form faxed to her by today and then I could pay when I arrived.
