Another basically (-like 70 tickets) 10,000 person crowd. Really awesome considering this week is the first week of midterms for most kids. Seeing freshman show up before they take the first “big” test of their college life is pretty nice to see.

So it sounds like there was a pretty good student turnout and that's great to see. I don't know what it will take to get the Davis community at large to show up big numbers on a regular basis though. We have a championship quality program and they deserve more support from the Davis community.

so agree, especially in a town that is so easily bikeable. I see the community biking to school in droves every morning, could easily bike to the game. Actually would be nice to have a little more bike parking now that I think about it..

Loved the return of Tube Sock madness as both a quirky stunt to get students out and a throwback for the alumni. I know I was thrilled that they started throwing them to the East Sideline too.

Now, sitting next to a bunch of recruits (DBs from the snippets of conversations I heard) meant I didn't actually get to catch any because I was pretty well covered, but still, nice touch

can we get the women's softball team to come out and throw the socks toward the top of the stands?

If we lived in Davis we would absolutely bike to games. As a student, we used to walk to Toomey. Good times!

My first two years in Davis, I lived so close to Toomey, we walked over for the game from our house. There was a walking group and we'd sort of build to it block after block like the Buckaroo Banzai trailer. Good times indeed! That was a loud North End Zone - seeing tube sock madness come back was great, at one point it got sophisticated so that socks could make it to the top rows of the seating when the "Aggie S.W.A.T." Team would come out with a compressed air gun and fire them up to the top rows so everybody got some action - I think those cannons were discontinued for obvious reasons as they shot those socks out pretty fast. Still a fun time when tube socks were in the game, not sure if the S.W.A.T. guys were ROTC, but they were fun to watch - ROTC guys and Band-Uh! used to always do push ups together, and in those J.T. O'Sullivan days there were 100's of push ups a game.
