It just stings a little, if you know what I mean.<br /><br />In any case, yes, we're looking forward to a great season.Carolyn Toddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03618998313704070525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7140012246828551816.post-37137776857910039622010-09-04T21:18:42.375-04:002010-09-04T21:18:42.375-04:00Hi Carolyn, Gary Saeger the Allentonian is back fo...Hi Carolyn, Gary Saeger the Allentonian is back for another year of reading you blog. Your article on procuring tickets both home and away games was so informative,interesting and very well written. From my perspective, the ticket allotment process is based on one and only one criteria: $$$$MONEY$$$$; and lots of it. Fairness does not appear to be part of the equation. Unfortunetly, somehow I doubt the criteria will ever change unless of course ticket sales drastically diminish. Apparently Penn State administration doesn't believe demonstrated fan loyalty should generate sny rewards. However,I suspect Terry and you will still enjoy this season and provide support to the team. Have a great trip to Alabama.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7140012246828551816.post-62939436310097103892010-08-09T22:21:10.285-04:002010-08-09T22:21:10.285-04:00Hi Bigdaddy, thanks for your comment.

The hotel is http://www.countryinns.com/tuscaloosaal . The total cost per person for the 3 nights is $368 (includes tax) based on double occupancy.<br /><br />The problem is that some people backed out and now we are in jeopardy of losing all the rooms. If anyone is interested in joining this group, please contact Susan (a travel agent) to sign up. Payment in advance w/ a Credit Card is required.<br /><br />Susan Gorham<br />Travelworld<br />601 Market Street<br />Kingston PA. 18704<br />570-288-9311 phoneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
