I know UTEP has tried for years to tap into Fort Bliss as a potential revenue stream and fan base. For years they've been given free tickets. For years UTEP has been saluting the military and honoring soldiers. But Saturday took the cake, all night long polishing their balls. Might as well been an Army home game with the tributes and even fireworks during the Army song.
Give it up, the 3% of the soldiers who've assimilated to the area are already going to the games. Other Miner Military fans were already from here. The overwhelming vast majority of military in town could care less and will never change their collegiate passion to UTEP.
The soldiers that were at the game did nothing but hate on the Miners for 4 Quarters.
Thank you for your service but Fort Bliss isn't our target fan base. Last nights ass kissing display was a slap in the face to the Miner Die Hards.
