My complaints weren’t so much a question about how to get to the game it was a comparison about how other towns and other teams handle it so much better, either by stadium design, parking lot capacity or traffic control/traffic direction. Go to the del mar fair, there will be a sign and somebody pointing where to go, large venues usually have some sort of plan in place. Qualcomm is not user friendly, they make me want to watch on television.
As far as college football goes, I realize most of you do not feel it is important but at many universities in the country, they use their football teams for both revenue and alumni donations, the football team doesn’t take away from the academics, they add to it. Look at programs like Notre Dame or USC, the revnue from the football team supports most of the other sports, activities and a chunk of the academics. If SDSU has the right product, made the right investments, they could buy five libraries and open them 24 hours a day. How many people that have never attended a university give money to those universities through television revenue, tickets and merchandise because of the football team. They do not give money freely because of a great library, but with a great football team you can afford a great library.
Here’s an article from 2007, taken from forbes for notre dame’s website
Of the 45 million dollar profit from the football team, 20 million of it goes towards academics, students who never watch a game, benefit from it, I’ll bet their library doesn’t close on weekends.
