    The Holy War 2009 Roll Call

    First, let me say that I've always found the term "Holy War" in reference to the Y/U game to be pretty dumb.

    And given little brother's disdain for the self-righteousness of Zoobs and the injection of religion into the football landscape, I have never understood why Utes willingly refer to it as "The Holy War."

    That being said, it seems to be what we call this annual matchup, so...

    Who is planning on being in attendance when the Cougars host the Utes at LES?

    Since it is a football game that involves the Utes, I already know for sure that SeattleUte will NOT be in attendance.

    Any others making the trek? Does everyone have tickets? Need tickets? Are you going with mixed group or are you sticking to your blue or red tribe?

    I will be there. I am hoping to get together with some CUFers before or after.

        I plan on being there. I plan on BYU winning. I don't plan on booing even if we get blown out.

        Of course I am 99% sure we will win and I am awaiting the onslaught from the "right wing" of the fan base proclaiming any fan this year that questionned Bronco should have their recommend revoked. I still hope and plan on winning.

        I won't under any circumstances, even if we blow out the Utes, sing pop corn poppin.

          I will be there.

          It should be interesting, my seats are right on the edge of the Utes section.

          I'm not sure my 5 and 7 year old will be safe.

          And being the true fan that I am I refer to it as the Deseret First Duel.

            I'll be there. Never attended a Holy War in Salt Lake, though. Worried about getting cussed at.

              I will be away that weekend and unfortunately have to give up my tickets.

              To bad I'll miss witnessing the mighty COUGARS demolish the Utes. Also I look forward to reading SU's posts on the matter. I suspect he will be in rare form.

                  I will be there. As per custom, no tickets in hand until game day draws near.

                  And under no circumstances will I participate in the stupid fist roll during the "Gooooooo Cougars!" portion of the fight song. Sorry, just being honest!

                  I will boo as I see fit.

                    If you show up at Rice Eccles stadium I'm sure you'll be able to find a good seat.

                          I'll be in town and would love to go to the game and possibly meet some of you guys. Since I'm currently a poor, unemployed student I have pretty limited means. If any of you know how I can get an affordable ticket I'd be extremely grateful. In fact, if someone hooks me up with a ticket at face value I'll wear neutral colors so I can blend in with the BYU fans.

                            And come on, we're getting better. Right?

                              Most of your classmates are likely using their student loans for beer and strippers, you can't use some of your federal funds for something Holy?
