    All-State Speech is always on the 3rd Saturday in February and has been for as long as I can remember. It was certainly scheduled before this year's basketball schedule came out. Wonder if JP tried to get a road game for this weekend or if he dropped the ball on this. Either way, it will work out fine - not a big deal.

    Not everyone's life revolves around ISU basketball. I wonder if we will ever host a Spelling Bee?

    Whoa, hey now, lets not get too hasty...
    Do you know why I put up with this 'pitiful job', Mr. Donaghy, why I fetch these folks' lunches and clean up their barfs? Cause they make television. And more then jazz, or musical theater, or morbid obesity, television is the true American artform.

    Mine certainly does. I feel like I've already had too many heart attacks this year.

    Re: Parking Tomorrow

    Seems like it would be easier to change the schedule of when ISU plays at home, so they can avoid these weekends, rather than changing a high school event that is no doubt affected by the high school calender. More options are available to ISU.

    Crap man! Don't give away secrets. I kid but there are a lot more ways to get in and out than parking in the designated public lots just south of Hilton.

    I'm going out on a limb here and guessing that while you could possibly have been in a speech competition, you were never in a state writing competition.

    We all have our crosses to bear.

    Re: Parking Tomorrow

    I find if funny that people are complaining about the fact that they have to park a little further away for one game. Speech is a big deal and by changing it you have to also change 2 other weekends for 4-8 different locations. It will be fine!

    Indeed it has. Traffic management at hilton blows. It starts with them letting people turn left while on S 4th, and gets worse when they let people enter into the donor lots when they skip the line and cross by going through the JTS lots.

    Re: Parking Tomorrow

    I parked in S6 today by JTS and i bet that even with the longer walk I still get out faster than I usually do. I know that ticket sales were up this year but seems like they added way too much donor parking that just gets used as GA anyways once those lots fill up because iti is still half empty 15 mins before tipoff

    So much for thinking parking at JTS would be better. Its been an even worse time trying to get out than the normal lots
