Everyone you know. School groups, church groups, friends, other alumni, coworkers, mistresses, families, Nathalie Harp, etc etc.

Let's try to sell out the UCLA game.

Bus the K-12 kids and CC students into the south endzone. No one knows how the season is going to go but have to be ready for a one time chance to break the mold and stereotypes, and give a real gift to the Bay. A new era has no limits at least that anyone knows for sure. 60,000+ and have the season going on all cylinders inside and outside the facilities. Maybe to the Wagner game instead or the like if the buzz for UCLA is doing well

We all need to buy more tix than we normally do, and invite our friends who normally wouldn't go otherwise. We can be the change we want.

I bought a half dozen extra for UCLA, we'll be there under the lights rooting loudly and witnessing Tosh's first ever game.

So excited for the game. Will be there with a good handful of family.
Looks like quite a lot of tix available online. Fans need to pick it up the next 2 weeks for us to sell out.

The folks I know who are sports but not Cal fans think Cal will be mediocre to bad. Basically they are not aware that Tosh and the new players/coaches could elevate the team. Obviously they need to win and keep winning to get casual fans engaged.

Walking back to the car in a town that shuts down when the sun sets will always present a problem in Berkeley. Tough when the townies are mostly gownies.

Never had a problem finding a spot to get a drink or a bite to eat in Berkeley at 10:30 on a Friday or Saturday night.

Agreed, after the Cal vs Texas game in 2016 ended at some ungodly hour, still managed to put down a couple of Quasars at Jupiter clear on the opposite side of campus.

I was at the game against North Carolina last year. Kick off was 7:30 pm on a Friday, game ended at almost 11:30 pm. Durant was its usual Friday night scene. Top Dog packed. It was well after midnight when we got cocktails at East Bay Spice on Shattuck,

My wife and I park just up from the Claremont. Never a problem. She's 72, I'm 67. We also get to the parking area 3-4 hours before the game so we get way down Fishranch. Actually, since this is a night game I think we can park in the neighborhood just down from the Claremont. Allows us to not hike up a bit of dark Fishranch. Not for everyone I guess.

OK, Tosh, I hear you... and after watching the Tell the Whole Damn World podcasts with Ed Quinn and Kevin Kennedy, I've decided to fly up for my first Cal home game in 20+ years... hope springs eternal (but this year it does feel different and more urgent than past years)! Ode Besar!

This is great!

Any other out of town Bears want to trek to Berkeley for the Labor Day weekend?

If I was still anywhere within a 5-hour flight, I would be there. But my wife and I now travel full time, and we're currently in Pogradec, Albania. I must admit, however, that late last night, I did look at travel options to get to the game, and aside from 20-30 hours of travel each way, it's simply cost prohibitive. (And I think my wife would divorce me if I dragged her to Albania and then abandoned her to fly to a football game.)

So that's my excuse. I'll just have to watch on TV at 4:30am local time.

If you aren't already planning to attend, what's yours? Get there if you possibly can.

Go Bears!

I'm coming down from Reno. But then, I come down for every game.
