I didn't make it over either, but one of the sports line live guys made that quote last night on SLL. Either Wyoming fans / CJC members dressed in red, or Nebraska fans that were so impressed with Wyoming Athletics that they decided to become boosters. Or both, or none of the above.cheypoke wrote:I didnt make it to tailgate part or CJC tent. Is that true, there were people in nebraska gear in there? That is truely classless. How on Earth could anyone justify doing that?Wyovanian wrote:Pretty easy to put some pretty serious social pressure on those CJC members.

He wasn't too happy with the amount of Red in line at the Cowboy Joe Club Tent. He asked why are these guys in line? Because they are CJC members wearing Nebraska gear.
I'm guessing they didn't just decide to become season ticket holders and CJC members to get a ticket to the game (season tickets maybe). We had alot of Wyoming fans switch sides on Saturday.
I figure if we had enough 10+ win seasons over the next few decades, we might be able to get that role to reverse. There are _alot_ of Wyoming fans out there. Just too bad to see them temporarily switch sides.
Personally, I helped a fellow CJC member with his first ever tailgate party, so I never even saw the CJC tent, but if I had, I guarantee there would've been some CJC members whose faces would've (and should've) been as red as their clothing.
Another alternative would be to charge more for those not in UW colors. You word it as "Show your Cowboy spirit for half-priced/ free beer" and double the price. This is the line in the sand where money buys neither friendship nor respect.
Needless to say, that game certainly gave our fans an identity crisis. Time to keep winning some football games to bring our fan base back over to the Brown and Gold side.
