I think those meal $$$ are a bit low...

Plus, there's the hotel to consider and the loss of revenue from their own gate...

When I traveled to West Monroe in 97 with Jesuit, we left in 2 Hotard buses on Thursday afternoon, stayed in hotel Thurs night, played game Friday night and left on bus after the game.

Got to imagine that adds up to a good amount.

team ate at Picadilly in Lafayette last Friday before the game with about 98 people on two charter buses and I believe the bill was around $700.00

Apparently Brandon Spikes was their favorite player and role model. They were eye gouging, punching, kicking, and everything else. VERY dirty team...

I'm a Jesuit guy so no love lost for BM, and I didn't see the game, but I heard from some BM alums that the refs cost BM the game.

That's about $7.14 per person. According to this: LINK you can't get a group rate for less than $11 per person.

I'm sure that a regular meal is more than $7 per person...

WM had 11/115 in penalties, more than Brother Martin and they were letting BM get away with murder with the gouging/punches.

WM does this quite alot, don't think anyone has ever taken the money though. not sure if they have but i know they did it back in 2001 whenever they played acadiana at cajun field. They were offering 50,000 to have the game up north.

I've been up there for a game, they can offer 50,000 because their stadium seats, what, about 15,000 so at 10 dollars a ticket that's $150,000 they make just on the home side not including visitors and concession. Crazy.........

to all you people who are calling BM dirty frick OFF because no one gives a shite. FACT is we went up there on a 4 game losing streak, ranked 31st in 5A with "no shot in hell" per the rebeltards on this board and gave those country bumpkins all they could handle.

the driveman told yall all week to be on UPSET ALERT. but if you're crying because we came up into your building with a chip on our shoulder then get a life. we hit you in the mouth with nothin but speed and swag and had you on the fricking ropes. WM catches purple fever this weekend and falls to AUG.

The FACT is WM's starting QB didn't play a single play. A sophomore played instead.

Brother Martin = La Tech
WM = LSU

Same exact scenario
