Home Season Moving Forward
Home games will be played at Wake Forest for the remainder of the 2024 season.
Can't get enough people to 'work' the games, security, concessions etc. and most likely not safe and the town of Boone can't handle 40k on the weekends under the conditions.
Young bus company is statesville tonight - will pick up the team tomorrow for trip to Marshall (Young is based in Asheville to you guys that do not think through every detail throughly.
You are welcome - carry on!

Wake’s AD or President did say they would be open to hosting but nothing publicly official. He’s got someone inside the program.Rick83 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 03, 2024 8:30 amWhat is your source for this?

Anchor Man. But I think the quote is "60% of the time, it works everytime"
Looked at Wakes schedule and it appears they do not have any scheduled home games on the same days as us.

Ye that was Sex Panther cologne -- my statement was similar but different - but in the same ball park.
I left some wiggle incase they throw a curve ball last minute on my scoop of the day - (hence the 90%)

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
I hope this is true, or some other arrangement, so that the players won't lose their season. They've worked so hard and been through too much...

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
So are we presuming this is true, the games will be played at Wake? If so I need to make hotel reservations in Winston. Not sure if there is an old joke I'm missing.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
I am not going to tell you what to do- game being in Winston means more fans will drive home after game instead of staying overnight like they do in Boone. They'll be plenty of hotels since Wake will be out of town on those remaining home dates.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
Let’s be serious…Wake home games aren’t exactly driving hotel occupancy.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
I'd hope the fanbase shows some grace. We should consider ourselves fortunate for the opportunity to watch football in general. I'm surprised we're playing this weekend honestly.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
Maybe not but there could be other events in Winston, maybe FEMA is being housed there, idk, just trying to plan ahead a little.
