So you ARE pnnylion!Because they sold out their ticket allotment to the SkidMark Bowl. They sure are goofy.
What will the excuse be, when there are no butts in those seats during the game?
Giant Eagle must be having trouble moving chipped ham.
The Metropolitan Opera is performing the one-act Richard Strauss opera Salome on December 28th. A small minority of the Pitt fans have heard that the Met 's performance is almost as good as the recent performance of Salome by the Pittsburgh Opera and want to see for themselves, while the vast majority of them want to go to compare it to Primanti's Genoa Salami. (I kid, I kid.)
Back in December 2014 you didn't refer to it as the SkidMark Bowl. Thanks for playing.Because they sold out their ticket allotment to the SkidMark Bowl. They sure are goofy.
We also didn't say we were back while at the same time playing in that bowl.
Pitt might get some respect if their fans quit making stupid comments in general, and telling lies about Penn State and Paterno more specifically.
"Paturdo" and Ped State shows the level of imbecile comprising the Pitt fan base. At least they stopped with "Pedo Bear" which was stupid and made absolutely no sense whatever.

And now they are having problems selling basketball tickets. Dixon knew when to get out of Dodge before the excrement fully hit the oscillating cooling device.
Maybe if the schedule a home and home with us in basketball it'll help their season ticket sales at the Pete also.

We were in that bowl and happy to be there. The fact you can't see the hypocrisy is unbelievable. Rail on Pitt fans all you want but many of you are cut from the same mold and don't even realize it.
That reminds me, I bought a PS "We Are Back" T-shirt about 2004. After 2005 it became irrelevant. Now it's time to start wearing it again.
hailtoPitt725 liked your post, is he hail to pitt 725 because thats how many national championships Pitt has won or how their average attendance ended for the year?

Totally fair point. Not sure I'd pitt (get it?) myself against my fellow PSU fans to make it, but it's a totally fair point.
No hypocrisy that I see. We were "happy" to go to any bowl because we had just finished a 6-6 regular season and had just had the unfair bowl ban lifted a few months earlier. We had about 50 something scholarship players available at that bowl game as I recall.
Pitt goes there to play a 6-6 team after maybe their best season in a decade or more. Everything is relative. Get it?
I posted a similar image the other day, but this is the iconic representation of the typical Lair poster's delusion concerning the current state of their program.
I just read the thread over on the lair...They somehow think that selling their 7,000 ticket allotment means They Are Back. Hilarious! It still hasn't occurred to them that selling out the stadium is the goal, not a 7k allotment. SMH
Like many here, I'm sure, I was at the Pinstripe Bowl. Yankee Stadium seats around 53,000. There were not many empty seats. My recollection is that PSU comprised at least 60% of the crowd.
Circumstances were quite a bit different. PSU was appearing in its first bowl after the NCAA had been forced to roll back its sanctions. The team was no where near the scholarship limit.
It was, at least for me an appearance and victory that felt quite cathartic.
My opinion is that the Pitt team itself deserved a more high profile bowl. But until they demonstrate that their fan base will travel and spend, that will be a factor in their placement.

There's nothing wrong with the Pinstripe Bowl. We played there a couple years ago and won an exciting game. By all accounts our fans were out in force and had a good time.
As for Pitt selling out their allotment, it's a matter of definition. I think for most bowls the participating teams are required to buy "X" number of tickets from the bowl. In that way, yeah, all the Pitt tickets were sold by the bowl. The question is whether or not Pitt actually was able to sell them to the public and if they did so without seriously discounting them or outright giving them away. If they unloaded their allotment they'll be bragging about a sell out which includes the freebies given away with a case of Pepsi.

If Pitt had such a great season, why are they playing a bowl game at 2pm on a work day against a 6-6 team?
Yeah, that moves the needle.

Joe Paterno once said: "Never get into a pissing contest with a skunk".
So why in the hell did you go and piss first on an obvious skunk sir?
Knock it off!!
