All I know is I'm bringing the fire pit and master grill. Tail gate is going to be a lot of fun!

“ Offer up some free pizza for the students to ensure they show up in force and raise hell this Saturday.”
They actually did that one year, maybe 10 years ago? BTW, welcome to the forum!

or literally give out ANYTHING like we have done for most home games this year. I dont know if the university thinks slapping the words "FCS PLAYOFFS" onto things makes them think students will come out (which personally I feel like the students as I have stated before, don't really understand how FCS vs FBS vs FCS Playoffs vs bowl games works and it makes it confusing of how important things are). Give out some more blankets or something!!! its gonna be chilly!

Retail price at Domino's: $4050 to give a slice of pizza each to 3,660 students

There's also power in free tee shirts and tickets as well. No reason the Athletic Department can't buy and offer a bunch of free seats.

if someone ordered 460 pizzas, that is mad rewards points, they’d be eating free themselves for a year lol. Given the cold temps, if they aren’t concerned about concession revenue they could offer free hot chocolate, hot coffee, and DC late nite cookies. Those are all cheap and easy to execute in bulk quantity in the time available.

Costco pizza? $10 pie.

one time, we had a bust for an employee appreciation event so we ran to Costco for pizza, churros, and water for 500. They loaded on pallets and forked it into the truck without blinking lol.

Perhaps they could give out free hot cocoa and mugs like this?

LOL. With advanced warning, couldn't the nearby DC make pies? We could also bring back the Bonfire ...
