We have trouble getting 40k plus into the stadium and have "fans" telling other "fans" that if you're not 100% behind everything "we don't need you!"
Nebraska? They may be telling people who had tickets to last Saturday's cancelled game against Akron to pound sand.
"Weather delays — and more extremely, cancellations — are more common in some sports than others. MLB teams generally have a handful of games delayed or postponed by weather every season, for instance. And in those cases, fans get something approaching equivalent value for the ticket to the game they didn’t get to see.
Nebraska college football, however, might not deal with such things very often. But the Cornhuskers did Saturday, when lightning in Lincoln immediately after the start of the game forced the delay and eventual postponement of head coach Scott Frost’s debut against Akron...
If you had a ticket for the game that was never played (beyond the opening kickoff), the news is extra bad. Per ESPN.com’s story: “No refunds will be issued for game tickets, many of which were sold on the secondary market for well above face value as the scheduled opener was to mark the anticipated coaching debut at Nebraska of Scott Frost.”..
