Outside of DFS (fantasy football) I don't gamble. However I think the time is now. Those concerned with addiction, I live in NC and have heard of no major addictions. It would have been reported.

Chad Johnson

I'm tired of going to council bluffs to make my bets.

John Bahr

Legalize all gambling. Why does the state have to dictate what you can and can't do.

Bob Dickson

Stop legislating morality. It is a gross example of dominion over the masses. It's not freedom. Its about power and control. Live and let live.

Not a good thing for college football, but we've got to be ready to match CA and other states, should the NCAA make that call. Schools not on board will of course be left out in the cold.

Frank Johnson

There is no reason to do this.

Randy Milhoan

How many bad ideas do adults have to entertain?

gregory erdmann

Gambling is evil

jerry williams

Sports betting will eventually create an environment where some individuals will want to influence games..it happens. Plus, sports gambling can hurt some families when betting becomes an addiction .

jon boller

Some folks may benefit from gambling but the odds are many others will suffer serious consequences, which includes children and other members of families who are not involved in gambling.

Tom Gilliand

Will have negative ramifications potentially resulting in scandals!

Robert Enyeart

Reminds me of the "well, other kids are doing it" issue as a parent. Also adds to the "Pay me in addition to my scholarship" Issue. A slippery slope.

Stop it with the environmental crap talk and bring back the balloons!!

Thomas Wright

Tradition !! It’s all part of the game and has been for so many years … HELL YES BRING IT BACK PERMANENTLY !!!!🎈🎈🎈 and GBR !!!

Wade Williams

We miss the balloons. Bring em' back!

Bruce Bredthauer

Because all that green woke bullshit is way overdone

Don Darrow

I love 🎈 like Penny Wise

Tom Cullinan

It is a unique tradition and raises a modest amount of money for the program. Besides, the new B1G ad still shows the balloons rising from the stadium and we'd hate to be billed for a redo.

Robert Lloyd

Tradition lives on and no intelligent person believes this is destroying the earth. Get rid of liberals not our balloons.

Doug Einsel

Have the cheer squad release at both ends of the stadium from large boxes/baskets.

Don Micki Boehm-Havern

Only if all biodegradable!

I am extremely concerned that some redwood owl or a spoon-billed sandpiper my try to eat the balloons and die. This is unacceptable. This may tarnish Big Red forever. I need a diet Squirt.

Rick Hazen

Maybe start a new tradition with the new coach and new team. Opponents have been complaining about the balloons possibly not being biodegradable so let's just change things and start something new

Joe Nigro

Environmentally irresponsible.

Steve Goertz

Let's start a new environmentally friendly salute.. .. red hankies.. red signs....

Richard Stotts

some traditions need to be changed, this is one. no balloons

Gary Williams

We have already broken the tradition. Let it lie and bring it back only for certain games.

Mike O

No. Celebrating a single touchdown as if it's some sort of win? It's a fun idea but it is littering and there should be other ways to celebrate the first touchdown. Dannen is just sucking up to the fans here. He wouldn't do this if he had to pick up the spent balloons.
