In case you missed the game, or even if you were there enjoy this video. It’s great to know that this true freshman as 4 years of being a Knight ahead of him. Also here is a great article in the Orlando Sentinel about how UCF signed him out of Edgewater.

Anyone following this site knows my opinion on the tailgate changes and absolutely nothing changed that on Saturday. If anything I know am more upset because the continued lack of communication on what we can or can’t do and the fact that those in non-donor lots had much less obstacles to overcome. Also none of the stated goals from UCF were seemingly achieved considering it appears they spent more on pre-noon security than ever before and I didn’t see any less rowdy behavior than usual. Hopefully some common sense is used and adjustments are made quickly to ease donor concerns and fix actual issues.
In the meantime here are some photos and videos I captured on Memory Mall and in the game.

Fox 35 interviewed me today for a piece about the tailgate controversy. My part was pretty small, but I’m posting this as I felt there was something pretty interesting in the story. UCF spokesman Grant Heston was quoted in the story as saying this:
“We have passionate fans and I think MOST of them COMPLETELY agree with the policy and the noon start time for this game”

I concede there are some fans that don’t care about this issue, but I haven’t run into any that agree with this policy and are happy about it. I’m curious where the UCF Administration find these fans? This is the second bizarre statement from a UCF official, the first was back on August 17th during a tailgate meeting where Admiral Harms stated that he had many fans tell him that they were “scared” to be on Memory Mall. I don’t want to say UCF is lying, but I’d love to find out where these fans are they like to reference.

If you are unhappy with the new rules imposed by the UCF Game Day Committee and how it was implemented after season ticket payments and donations were due then please sign the petition below. Also please send it to friends, post it on facebook, etc. We need to let the UCF administration know this is unacceptable.

Keep in mind there is now proof that UCFAA knew about these pending changes before they sent out renewal notices, but they failed to inform us about it until this summer when money was already collected. In addition it appears that the UCFAA actually preferred a more strict policy of only 5 hours of tailgating, which would have meant tailgating not starting until 2:30pm this Saturday. Time to stand up and say no more!

UCF fans have put in requests for the UCF Game Day Committee meeting notes and have received some records back. You can download these records by clicking here. It’s mostly PowerPoint presentations sprinkled with some emails and attachments. I haven’t gotten a chance to read every single document, but I would recommend taking a look at 10-2-08 presentation PDF. Let me show you an exert that has caught my eye as well as many other fans so far. [Read more →]

As many of you who tailgate in Memory Mall are aware last year after the USF game in a knee-jerk reaction the UCF Administration began painting 10×10 white lines in the grass on Memory Mall to tell tailgaters where they can place their tents. The end result is something like this: [Read more →]
