Nice to see someone has written a tribute song to Ben Roethlisberger.

Do you think they give an award for the dumbest release by a university athletics website? If they do, I think this may be the winner.
Why is athletics involved in this at all? I understand if the university brings in a performer, but our athleti department can't seem to handle drawing fans and winning games.....
All I keep thinking of is that Seinfeld episode....."Nobody beats the Wiz."

i am glad the department is using the facility to generate funds. They need to be doing more of this kind of with all of our facilities. But I guess some will always see it as a horrible idea.....

If you're going to charge $25 and $35 for a concert, you should probably have someone that the general population had heard of.

I kinda liked that George Strait idea. I might even pay twice as much to see him in AA :-)

Well I like you too and to tell you the truth, that wasn't my chair after all.

George Strait has only had 57 #1 hit songs. So the general population has heard of him.

And George Jones, well........Whshhhoooh . . . white lightnin'

I think they meant Wiz kid, or whoever it is, shouldn't be the one performing since nobody knows who that person is. I certainly don't have a clue. I'd like to know when the University will bring in quality talent that isn't Rap/R&B.
ROLL ALONG!!!
