I really really hope the Athletic Dept is ready for the likely attendance boost for the ISU game due to the “Mega Reunion” going on that weekend. They need to expand concessions, especially around beer sales and Apparel.  This is a chance for a very significant revenue boost, we can’t waste it.

I hope so too! But we all know they aren't at all. 

This is a great opportunity to raise some money. We need to go all out and make this a great experience and if we could win... that would be the cherry on top

If anyone reading this thread is active in the planning/hosting of the Mega reunion, it would be awesome if we could ask the folks attending, that know they want to go to the game, to purchase advanced tickets.  That would really help the athletic dept be prepared.  We don't want to discourage walk ups obviously, but having advanced knowledge would be a big help.
