The Travelodge absolutely sucks donkey balls. It is horrible. Sleep in your car instead.
 
Re: Michigan Tech Offseason III: Screw It, Somebody Look Up The Cheat Codes

Well, yeah it won't compare to the Ralph, Mariucci, or Kohl's Center. I wasn't implying that it would, most college arenas don't. But it will compare nicely to the new DECC, Bemidji's arena, the NHC, the Berry, the MWSC (or whatever Mankato's arena is).

The arena is no longer gonna stand out against them in recruiting and the suites are going to bring in needed revenue.

The arena wasn't what was primarily working against them in the first place. Sprucing up the JMSIA is mostly about bringing in more money from the suites and such, like you mentioned. It's just a bonus to be able to provide tangible proof to recruiting prospects that the school cares enough about rebuilding the program to spend a few million here and there on the facilities. A video board in the very near future should mostly complete the makeover for what is otherwise a classic, small town old barn (and actually has a certain amount of appeal to our Canadian players for that fact).

Being that the MacInnes is On Campus, I don't believe that MTU is allowed to sell beer anywhere in their athletic facitilies save for the suites, per NCAA rules. Its a nice thought, I grant you that.
I doubt the NCAA has a distinction between suites and a club level, which is what the beer garden area would be.

The TravelLodge is decently located. The hallways are cold as balls. Its not the best, not the worst. If you.. say... Don't mind staying in Calumet, the Americinn is actually quite nice.

Calumet is a long walk from the bars in Houghton....

I hope someone has started brainstorming new thread titles for the soon to come season thread. Let's put some effort into this one (I did like this thread title, though).

BPH said a couple posts back that he has a good title for the first thread of the season, so he's claimed it already.:p
 
Re: Michigan Tech Offseason III: Screw It, Somebody Look Up The Cheat Codes

The question is, do we really trust BPH to come up with something good? ;)

Yeah... I'd test it out first. No offense to BPH, I'm sure he can come up with something good, but you guys are year in and year out a Frozen-4 calibre of posting fan base, and you don't wanna end up with a season thread title on par with Miami's offseason thread. :D
 
Re: Michigan Tech Offseason III: Screw It, Somebody Look Up The Cheat Codes

Unfortunately, no. I just took them home, I liked to keep my roommates awake.

I stayed there when I was in high school and some friends and I went up there for a snowmobile trip. Only later would I realize how pointless it is to stay at the Downtowner Motel, while still in high school, without fake IDs.

God, even I can do better than that. :mad:

:p


Besides, if it sucks THAT badly, we've been known to fill a season thread in a month. :o
