Did this get discussed/made fun of anywhere on here?

I know that the answer is money, but why the F are we playing West Virginia in (checks notes) Charlotte?

Charlotte which (checks map) is in neither of the Virginias, but is, in fact, in (double checks map) one of the Carolinas.

Also, does anyone think the game scheduled for 2032 will actually happen?

Talk on the 247 board from Mikeysurf was apparently our administration doesn’t wanna play at WVU because of bad experiences with their fanbase in the past.

I just hope the Pep Band comes back and plays the exact set it played at halftime of the 2002 Tire Bowl.

Edit: Or better yet, combines that show with the one they did at halftime of the 1985 Parents Weekend night game.

Ah the Used Tire Bowl. Remember when we used to go to bowl games? That was cool.

We’ll get back there someday. Just sucks that bowl games (outside of the playoffs) have lost all value. They’ve always been kinda meaningless, but now with the playoffs and the transfer portal opening up in Dec before bowl games starts, you’re gonna see more and more players opting out or heading into the portal. Leaving bowl games to be glorified JV scrimmages.

I don’t want to come across as shooting the messenger here.

1984 was 40 years ago! Is anyone who attended the game in 1984 going to a game in Morgantown in 2026 or 2032?

Also, didn’t we play a basketball game there a few years back? 2017-2018 maybe?

If the 2032 game does happpen, I wonder if there is a way to move this game to the yet-to-be-constructed new Commanders stadium that will hopefully be in DC.

Seeing we’ll play WVU in 2026 while likely breaking in a new coach…but the game will be played in my city

I’ve traveled to see UVA get crushed before. No regrets.

As a Texas Hoo, have to make a decision soon about going to Dallas to watch the hoops team struggle at SMU.

@grillswith, you gonna take this one? Young buck here seems to think you’re too old to go back to Morgantown.

I mean we ain’t dead! I was there 40 years ago and hell yeah I’d go again in a heartbeat. I do remember our players being pissed about dirty Mounty play but I don’t remember having bottles or whatnot tossed at my noggin. Probably wouldn’t have felt an impact anyhow based on the amount of moonshine consumed prior, during, and after.

Bring on The Mountaineers, in Morgantown.

Also, if I remember correctly, there was a curfuffle about Pep Band behavior when the ‘Eers were in Charlottesville so maybe neither team wants a home and home.

Sorry @GMoney didn’t see your reference to the parents weekend game before I hit send. Classic all the way around that game.

I’m with you, I was supporting a home and home and not the ridiculousness of playing games in Charlotte.

@GMoney thanks for calling me a young buck. Beats my kids teasing me with old jokes.
