So you release two hundred doves into Memorial Stadium as the crowd erupts in cheers for the score. The doves get scared, crap everywhere, and now you have guano slicking up the playing surface - or the fans.
I'm going to pass on that one.

What kind of freaky a$$ doves excrete bat crap?

The red dye does it.

That would explain why every divorced cougar with a red tinted dye job is batsh#t crazy I guess.

 
Ok, SO I got tickets to the game. Now I need to make sure I get a balloon for my daughter as it is her first game. When should I be on the lookout for the balloons and how much do they cost?

 
Remember that time we said there would be no more balloons because of reasons?

Yeah... um, about that....

Upon Further Review, There Will Be Balloons
Call it an audible and just know this: Upon further review, Big Red balloons will continue to be an important part of Nebraska’s Game Day tradition Saturday against Arkansas State and every home game the rest of this season and, hopefully, for every other season for generations to come.

“We took another look at the helium inventory issue and how filling our game day balloons might affect hospital levels of liquid helium, and we found that the risk really was not there like we first understood,” said Michael Stephens, Nebraska’s associate athletic director for Marketing, Licensing and Concessions. “With that understanding and knowing that the helium shortage is being addressed by both the private sector and the federal government, we will continue celebrating the first score of every home game with the release of 2,000 red balloons – about half of what we’ve been producing normally.”

When helium inventory levels rise, Nebraska will consider returning to the release of 4,000 to 5,000 red balloons after the first score. “Whenever the supply gets back to a normal level, we’ll make a decision,” Stephens said. “In the meantime, we’ll continue to monitor the situation and go with 2,000 balloons every game. This time-honored tradition is an important part of Nebraska Game Day, so we did more research, took another look at the problem and found that we could continue doing it on a smaller scale.”
