Old Titan Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 Man, I'm confused. I received a mass e-mail on the 22nd that went to all Golden Eagle Club members saying the watch party was at 11:30 a.m. Monday. Two days later, I got a similar e-mail apologizing for mistakes in the first e-mail and saying that the watch party was now at 2:00 p.m. Monday. But, there's Terry's post above saying 11:30 a.m., and the following official link that also says 12:30 Eastern time, which would be 11:30 local time. 2007 NCAA Baseball Championship So, is it REALLY 11:30 a.m.?? Why the second e-mail saying 2:00 p.m.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Minyard Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 There should have been another e-mail that corrected the 2 p.m. announcement. The watch party will begin at 11 a.m. on Monday in the Grand Slam Room. I can explain the story as to why the time was changed a couple times. It was reported to me that the selection show starts at 11:30 a.m. The conference office told us we were wrong, and that it was at 2 p.m. They turned around and corrected themselves almost immediately, but we already sent out an e-mail. So it was always at 11:30 a.m. The party begins at 11 a.m. I hope that all of you get the opportunity to spend some time with the baseball team tomorrow. PARTY STARTS AT 11 A.M. SHOW STARTS AT 11:30 A.M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any way to get one out to all club members with the correct time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmh8286 Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 I can confirm what OT is saying - the most recent notice I have states that the party starts at 2:00 and the show at 2:15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Minyard Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 I made a phone call, but no promises on getting another e-mail sent. There will not be anything in the paper about it. ORU's internet was down on Friday, so that is why a corrected e-mail was not sent out. I've been told we will try to send an e-mail out tomorrow morning. There's a limited amount of space obviously, and I think there is some fear that there won't be enough room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to make too big a deal out of this, but do we REALLY want to run the risk of a Champions Club member and his kid(s) showing up at 2:00 p.m. to rub elbows with the team, only to find the doors locked?

I agree... it just happened to be bad timing with the holiday weekend. Nothing I can do, and it's not my decision. I can help you guys with tickets, but that is about it.
