I like the location move. The students have really taken to the green. Hope we continue to tap in to the increasing interest in athletics from the student body.

Thursday!

This is a recruiting tool and Friday night doesn't work for high school kids.

Man I'm going to miss it for the first time.

Can't wait for Haase on the Grass.

Thursday nights are better for students since a lot of them go home on Fridays.

Dinner 5:30 - 7pm

Well then your issue isn't with Thursday...because last year it was on a Thursday, too.

Taking guesses now for how Haase makes his entrance this year:
2012: Mustang
2013: Helicopter
2014: "Motorcycle"
2015: _____________

Haase on Grass.

I'm going with "Stoned"

FRW drives up in a white windowless van, runs around to the back, and pulls him out.

Obviously a John Deere

Hovercraft?

He walks in holding the 2015 NCAA Banner

Rolled in on a dolly a la Hannibal Lecter.

He's become a million dollar coach since the last Hoops on the Haasephault. He comes in a Lambourghini, raining cash to the crowd.

We're on the green this year, so one of Bubba Watson's golf cart hovercrafts would work. A monster truck plowing through a cherry tree grove might get a loud response from the crowd.

An Indycar or repel down the side of Heritage Hall could be good.

Giant zip line from Vulcan! ! !
