yeah, it actually helps liven up the mood between strangers. Someone is either casting the game or finds a tv, and all of a sudden you bond over ducking out for a few to watch

I think in that case, they should spend a lot more on wedding gifts. Why endure friendships if you can't use it for good stuff?

If they were that upset...they just wouldn't have gone imo.

I already knew attendance would be less than the amount of invites I sent. I sent out 50 invites...we had 29 people there (that included my husband and I). I had really close friends not go cause they couldn't afford it. Didn't upset me at all, I totally understood and didn't hold it against our friendship.

if she is a good girlfriend then she will tell you to go the game and have a good time. If she is one of them whiny bitches that will complain about you wanting to not go to this wedding then she isn't the right girl.
It's a pretty good litmus test for your girlfriend. If this is something she'd truly get upset with you about, at the very least, it's a red flag you're going to want to keep an eye on.

Not everyone’s life revolves around college football
Not everyone's life evolves around seeing friends of friends getting married...which we all know has about a 60%+ failure rate. Especially some fig that let's the woman pick a date like that. Hell, the priest doesnt even want to be there. Or, if her brother played for LSU, she wouldnt donit on that date. That bride is a selfish butch...end of story

Who are the actual selfish ones here?
Your wedding isn't nearly as important and special to random friends than it is to you. If you think it should be that important to them, then you're clearly the selfish one.
But the honest answer is quite simple, it is 100% selfish to choose a game over someone's wedding, and there really is nothing wrong with that because your selfishness is really not affecting anything. Like I said in a previous post, that couple has so much shite going on that day, they won't even notice you're not there in the moment.

How do wedding planners allow Saturday weddings during football season?
I doubt wedding planners care about football, but yeah. If you do get married in the Fall, do it on Friday night. There are 52 weeks in a year, there are 15 weeks that should be wedding free (12 games, but everyone has a bye week so it's 13. Then if your team makes the conference title game you don't want to be worried about a wedding), then you would think most people are not scheduling weddings between Christmas & New Years, which are the bowl games. After that.. Go nuts.
Well, if possible avoid the weekends during March Madness, but that leaves them with half of winter, Spring and Summer. Find a day during that time.

Championship games aren’t the same as regular season games. Try harder to make this a more complex issue than it actually is.

Championship doesn’t equal regular season game vs Vandy

So what about playoffs? Conference championships? Is there a website or place we can go to find out when it is or isn't ok to make life revolve around football?

Aren’t you a MSB troll? Your lack of debate skills make more sense now.
