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.

The alignment of administration to restoring order of Nebraska now in the BIG is incredible. This choice of a young, competent outsider is consistent with the vision. The Nebraska magic will have him only vacationing in Florida. Get behind him, Huskers.

Honestly it will take time, when you are used to someone like Greg Sharpe it will take time and assessment before you can accept another voice, especially someone outside the Husker Nation circle which can be hard to accept anyway. But if someone puts their all into it then over time can work.

Kelly Maas

do not like his voice. It has no depth IMO.
