I really wonder if someone at the University monitors this site. I guess the guy who asked when this was held a couple threads down got his answer.

What the hell?  A one-hour "Youth Day" on a Thursday afternoon? So mom or dad can take a half day off work for an hour at the stadium with the kids? To quote a buddy, the only thing that makes sense is that they are trying to kill it. Weak. Just weak.

I got Hoke's autograph back in 2011 (when it was called Fan Day). It's not worth much anymore, but I keep it with my Sugar Bowl memorabilia.

Overall, it ended up being a memorable day since we spent a lot of time waiting in line inside the tunnel. I got to see the players walking by me to take the team photo.

Looks like it will be a half day of work for me. I would love to hear the reasoning behind this. Is it really to combat the ebay whores ? 1 hour is not enough time to have fun there. Hopefully we get early access again this year. We have the past 2 years being drawn from the Kids Go Blue Club. Although nobody signed autographs early, it did guarantee us the autographs of the group we wanted.
