Saturday night event in downtown Indianapolis needs seat-fillers. Total number of seat-fillers needed will vary based on crowd.

Must tolerate loud noise and crowds. Event will last all evening on Saturday night. All ages, sexes, races, etc.

Please use contact e-mail. Event planner will follow-up with exact details on location for staging of seat-fillers (additional information and instruction provided there).


Jumping to conclusions, submitter. "Seat filler" is a euphemism for anal sex. This is an ad seeking participants for an orgy.

They might want to consider kidnapping Montee Ball while he's there to get a head start on the rebuilding efforts.

Don't know what this is, but it reminds me of when I used to participate in a lot of those 'extras casting calls' albeit pre-internets growing up in L.A. Street scene extras, game shows, live TV tapings, whatever.

"BCS" is the euphemism for consensual anal sex. "PSU showers" - not so much.

At least the Pac-12 got it right and has the team with the best conference record hosting the game. Of course the Pac-12 championship game this year is going to be a laugher this year, but they will still fill the stadium in Eugene.

Fun fact: If, if UCLA beats Oregon, they of course go to the Rose Bowl. If UCLA loses, they are not bowl eligible.

They should move the game to a location underneath an interstate overpass. Now, that would be a real good time.

I think the UCLA AD has already hinted that they will apply for a waiver if(when) they lose this Friday so that they can still get into a bowl game with a losing record. It will be priceless when they are denied.

Domes are for pussies. The only thing more generic than the NFL is a dome. This is the Big Ten, play that shiat outdoors.

News aggregators and a bit of thought. Or find a weekly niche (NFL Monster Thread, CFL, WWE, Caterday) and submit it every week. You know they're looking to green at least one.

If you think something from Reddit is genuinely worth sharing on Fark, by all means submit it. But you'll probably get called on it.

That's what they get for having a championship game at one end of the conference, Boston to Florida for the weekend is a long ass drive. Indianapolis should be better because it's centrally located for the Big 10.

Nabb1: I guess the SEC didn't get that memo. I mean, look at how many BCS titles those pussies have won.

Yup, because Atlanta in December is exactly the same as up here in December which means I'm ragging on the SEC for wanting fans of the two involved teams and the sponsors to be nice and cozy. My Woody, those pussies down there in Atlanta, they can't even be outside in that frigid December weather for a second before they die. The SEC sucks! What in the world is wrong with them?

Nice job on intentionally going out of your way in reaching for that one. Come on. WTF, dude?

They moved it to Charlotte, and stopped letting Boston College play in it. There should be a few more people this year.

That's EverBank Field, so the folks who didn't show up just figured the Jaguars had a home game and were wearing different uniforms.

Screw neutral locations, give the game to the team with the better record, or if there was a head to head, the team that won. You won't ever have to worry about selling out the stadium.

It would also be priceless if if gets approved, and they lose to Wyoming in the "Blake's Lottaburger New Mexico Bowl". Then they hang a banner celebrating the 6-8 PAC-12 South championship season.
 
2011-11-30 02:45:47 PM
Also, the location of the Georgia Dome has more to do with Atlanta being a somewhat central location geographically in the SEC, with a large hub airport serving the city, and the fact that the Georgia Dome was a relatively new, fully modern, high-capacity stadium when the SEC first started playing the game, more than anything to do with comfort for the fans.

I concur with the 6-8 part, but technically, would they be the South Champion? The whole USC ineligibility thing has me a little confused.

If I go to the ticketmaster website and try to buy tickets to this event I am stuck with 10th row tickets on the 40 yard line. Man that sucks, there will be literally dozens of people with better seats than me (including the players and refs).

What was their allotment? 12?

Barring some sort of accident that kills Oregon players or Oregon just coming out and playing their worst game of perhaps the last 5-10 years, they are going to pummel UCLA similarly to how they were pummeled last week. Point being that a team that loses its last two games by average score of 53-3 and finishes 6-7 should get NCAA Probation for even bothering to waste anyone's time filing a waiver

Another funny thing about the unlikely UCLA win...Neuheisel would not be the coach if they play in the Rose Bowl game.

I wouldn't be entirely sure about that, assuming 6-7 means they're eligible at all they could easily go to one of the super suckbowls.

They should play an "All Big Ten" game before the championship and the league (leaders or legends) that wins that game should get home field advantage.

Best part is UCLA's argument to the NCAA is that they should go to a bowl because the only reason they'll make the Pac-12 title game and almost certainly lose is because USC is ineligible because of NCAA penalties. Classic. Not only do Bruins admins admit their team sucks and has no right to play in the game and will probably lose, but they're begging the NCAA to give them a pass because the only reason they'll be 6-7 is because of the NCAA.

Something tells me this will fail, especially since there are already 71 bowl eligible teams.

I went to the first ACC championship game over in Jax. Florida State travels ok. Miami fans would if their probation officers would let them leave the county.

Clemson fans are the best travelers I've seen in the ACC. They infest the bars and play sad country music when they lose down here.

I think the crux of their argument is that there are already too few bowl eligible Pac-12 teams to fulfill bowl contracts.

I don't disagree with you, not least of which because I want to see Western Kentucky go to a bowl. But I'm pretty sure that's what they're going to argue, and if a waiver is granted, it will be on those grounds.

Looks like UCLA is going bowling if they want to, even if(when) they lose this Friday.
