10. I could try and get you a ticket! I have friends who give me tickets to 3 games each year.

Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Dawgs! Sic 'em! Woof, woof, woof! :woohoo:

There is nothing like 85,000 plus (almost 90,000 now) people cheering for the Dawgs and the visiting team on a beautiful Saturday in Athens!

The crowd noise is so loud that I can hear it outside in my yard several miles from the stadium!

The Georgia Dawgs tradition is to listen to "The Voice of the Dogs", Larry Munson on the radio while watching on TV if you can't go to the game. Many who attend the game listen to Larry on headphone radios! He's a legend!

I'm a GA alum but I can't afford the Athletic Association contribution level that would get me tickets. My firm does work for the athletic association, including designs for the stadium expansion, and we didn't get any ticket offers. :( However, there are usually people selling tickets outside the stadium before home games.

16. It can go up to three dogs
I might rig one of those up. My big IG can run about 30MPH, a lot faster than I can. He would probably love to go at a full sprint.

14. I'm torn.
Great idea for psycho dogs with boundless energy like my HippieDog Hank, but then again it also looks cruel/confining.
