BOWL: Liberty Bowl vs Memphis Dec 29

[NorthCyd]

Guessing K State played.

Oh, my bad. Didn’t realize they were a K-State fan.

Oh, my bad. Didn’t realize they were a K-State fan.

Lol, I'm not, sorry for even bringing it up. I happen to have attended the game in 2015 and was simply making a comment that sometimes its extremely cold for that game and sometimes it might be 60.

You mean 2012 when they played Tulsa? It really sucked because it was raining. It started raining during the game and then it was absolutely pouring that night on top of being cold. The game sucked and the weather sucked.

We were at that game. I was on Beale St when the guitar dropped for new years and it was snowing pretty hard.

Two nights downtown Memphis at the Doubletree for $130 a night. Granted I got a refundable reservation last week, so its probably more expensive now. Split it with a friend and it's going to be a cheap bowl trip.

I am at the Doubletree also.

I don't think people are upset with the bowl, just don't like the idea of playing a team in their home stadium for a bowl game again.

I get that. People and the team in Memphis also feel a little cheated. I say let’s all make the best of it, and party at the Liberty Bowl. Remember, we have alcohol.

Memphis is typically in 50's in late December. Just happened to be in a cold snap and 30's in 2017. Hopefully we get a warm spell this time and it is in 60's.

I blame y’all. You brought the cold weather with you.

 

[TigerFan17]

Memphis has enough going for it that I decided to spend the weekend there and attend the game.

If you’ve never been and have questions about what to do and see and what to avoid, feel free to ask.

 

[TigerFan17]

I'm sure some Memphis fans are excited but if I'm a Memphis fan, I would want to go somewhere else than my home stadium for a bowl game

We’re a little disappointed, and so is the team. But, we’ll make the best of it, just like we hope y’all will and have a great time. 2017 was amazing, and I’m excited to see y’all again.

To be fair, it's well documented that Iowa State fans hate sick children.

Carson King would like a word with you

Interesting side note. Guess who the Memphis Offensive Line Coach is? Jeff Myers.

If you’ve never been and have questions about what to do and see and what to avoid, feel free to ask.

I’d like to make it but can’t talk enough of my crew into going this year. Sucks.

If you only do 1 thing besides the game on Friday night make it this place.

I've been to five Liberty Bowls, and they were ALL COLD. Two had precipitation (sleet in 1993 and rain in 2012), and one was Siberia cold (1976). 2007 and 2017 were the only two that were even tolerable, and they were still COLD. Good weather for the Liberty Bowl is just not allowed!

But do you have enough alcohol?

We're doing the alumni assn package. If we're anywhere near you we'll stop by & say hi!

We just booked that also. Looking forward to relaxing on the way down

I didn't see transportation included. We're driving down. Did I miss a bus or plane?

 

[JimmyChitwood]

We're taking a bus down.

 

[ImJustKCClone]

We're taking a bus down.

With the Alumni Assn? Or on your own hook? If it's with them, can you PM it to me?

Jammie?

I'd like to say that Jeff Johnson sent us an email, but no. He just told me where to sign up for early notification of the bowl package. It came around 3p on Sunday.
