DVC Tailgating....As this will be one of the top games this week parking will get crowded early. Arriving around 9:30 or 10:am you should fine ample spaces to park or tailgate or whatever. Campus security will escort out anyone they feel is intoxicated or rowdy. A bunch from another school was escorted out after they became rowdy and intoxicated. They also left their trash in the parking lot.
Please put your beverages in a colored cup and act like the great fans you are and most likely you will be left alone. A large boistrous group will be looked at and your cups looked into also, most everyone brings their own trash bags. The visitor stands will be in the sun if it decides to appear and it can get cold real fast so dress accordingly.  If you happen to arrive late you maybe asked to park in an additional lot on the other side of campus and it is quite a walk.

GO AGGIES!!!

JT...there is tailgating all over the parking lot and no the home and visitors fans are not separated...Havnet had to separate anyone yet....

Bobbydb19.....the key to this contest will be the field....Like on a rainy day it brings  a more even playing field to both units. The field is currently being prepared for Saturday.  Both teams have high powered offenses and stubborn defenses, however DVC needs to get a quick start and they havent done that all year except for a few games.  A quick start for the Aggies will no doubt put more pressure on the Profs and again the field may hold the key to the semi finals.

Upbrmeasap.....Joisey??? Come on man, thats thin...See you Saturday??  At the tracks 9:AM??

Thanks for the info Billman56.  I will be watching the weather and watching the scores. 

Sorry JT, I am rooting for DVC in this one.  Seen too many Rowan/Mount Union games and I want to see Mount finally come to my area for once.

i saw dvc/rowan preview on comcast sportsnite last evening. interviewed coach mangus and knoblauch and carmon. i think they are much more prepared this year. i agree with coach mangus they arent playing rowans tradition this year they are just playing rowan the football team. they seem much more confident in knowing what to expect against rowan this year. plus having it at home helps very much. btw i saw the practice field on comcast sportsnite and what a mess, alumni and supporters of dvc need to start to fund raiser that practice field was an embarrassment to view. caught a quick glimpse of the field in the stadium and that looked in decent shape not nearly as bad as i thought it would.

[D O.C.]

Fair weather.

No injuries!

So what is it going to be:

Mount Union travelling to DVC or Rowan going to Alliance, Ohio (just like on December 11, 1999)?  I don't like to remember that game.  Ended Mounts 54 game winning streak, Only to be followed by a 55 game streak.

KC Keeler had one of the classic lines when asked about playing at Mount....."I feel like I have already been to Mount Union, I have seen this stadium so much on film".

As long as it is not Capital coming to Rowan or DVC.

Sorry for all my Mount Union talk in the MAC page, but I have real interest in the DVC/Rowan game.  Plus I am sure if either team gets to the Stagg Bowl, you want it to be because you beat one of the best.

[PBR...]

no problem bobby with the mount union chatter....nice thing about div III is they settle everything on the field not in the polls....so if mount union is good enough they will win their remaining games if not they werent the best team to begin with and no matter who wins then would feel any less by not having faced mount union....

[profs_fan]

Will be coming up to the rematch game Saturday.  Union had home team parking close to the stadium.  Is parking first come first parked at DV?

I had bil-lateral knee replacements and also have a sports hernia. Slipped on the ice at Union and aggregated the sport hernia. So walking real far is a painful experience. 

Haven't missed a Prof payoff game in....many years ago.  Wouldn't miss this unless I was on life support.

I hope uall realize that once you have a winning program, all teams
want to be the team that ended your winning steak.  Sometimes  the best thing that can happen is lose a game in midseason.  Sometimes not.

Hope nobody gets hurt, good sportmanship, and an entertaining game for Saturday.

We plan to arrive on campus about 9-10 am.

[JT]

Billman et al,

Thanks for the heads up on the tailgating.  Like I said before... I've been getting plenty of emails with questions about the tailgating situation at DVC.  I'll post something on my site.  BTW... I always bring a trash bag, and I think those that don't are rude.

[JT]

Given the field conditions.... maybe I'll wear cleats while taking photos.

[PBR...]

billman let me know where along the railroad tracks you will be.... i will try to catch up with you.

[JT]

I hope to get there by 9am, so if you Aggie fans see me I'll be happy to engage in pre-game banter.  My ugly mug is on the ATR page for the East region, for those that haven't ventured into the Around the Region on d3football.com.

Remember that CD of images we emailed about?  Well I will be at the game if you want to try to get that together and we can chat a bit in Dolyestown.  I will be calling the game along with Gordon for the third week in a row.  See you there and safe travels to all (although in this case, I might be making a longer trip than fans of either school).
