The \u201ccurrent\u201d UH football experience consist nothing more than watching a bad coach lose his temper, falling asleep in uncomfortable seats, eating overpriced stale pizza, and paying for small expensive parking stalls.\u00a0 At one time, great football play trumped everything else. \u00a0But Junes Jones, our former coach who took us to the Sugar Bowl was let go.\u00a0 And like Elvis, good football, even average football, left the building, and slowly overtime, there was really nothing worth paying for.<\/p>\n

Norm Chow should be fired<\/p><\/div>\n

I have been a University Football Season Ticket Holder for so many years.\u00a0 \u00a0I can\u2019t recall a UH Football season that I had not witnessed live and in person.\u00a0 I sat in the same seats at the Aloha Stadium: Section G, Orange, Row 8, Seat no. 1, since I was in the seventh grade.\u00a0 I grew up in those seats every Saturday for the last few decades of my life; learning the game of football, loving the game of football.\u00a0 Truth be it, I\u2019m going to miss watching the game of football live, but the University of Hawaii has pressed their luck, tested my loyalty, and abused my patience.\u00a0 Watching UH football is no longer enjoyable, it has now become frustrating.<\/p>\n

The problems start with our head coach, Norm Chow; an excuse of a man who is thin skinned; an excuse of a head coach who simply does not know how to lead a football team.\u00a0 His play calling surely does not reflect his decorated resume.\u00a0 But aside from a conduct on the field, it is his conduct off the field that bothers me.\u00a0\u00a0 He is a secretive man who hired an offensive coordinator in the off-season, paid that man hundreds of thousands of dollars of tax payer money, just to fire him before the season started. No reason was given to the public, even though tax payer money was used.\u00a0 Chow, a man of arrogance, also cancelled a public spring practice, just because he didn\u2019t like a sports reporter who showed up to do his job.<\/p>\n

The problems don\u2019t stop there.\u00a0 The University of Hawaii has drastically raised prices on the season ticket holder, while drastically dropping prices, unapologetically, for everyone else.\u00a0 Season ticket holders, who are also serial tailgaters, are subjected to horrible parking situations where they must wait behind a velvet rope, for stalls.\u00a0 And then after parking, they are bullied by power-trip parking attendants to bbq within a very small area, despite for the fact that the parking lot is virtually empty (it\u2019s empty because we don\u2019t win!)<\/p>\n

Do I need to mention that the food in the stadium is worse than dorm food and there is no fountain soda either?\u00a0 Arrgghhh\u2026<\/p>\n

What does this mean for you, the aspiring Hawaii bride?\u00a0 Well.\u00a0 My Saturday\u2019s are now open for weddings during the latter portion of the year.\u00a0\u00a0 Before, I took Saturdays in the college football season off.\u00a0 Not anymore!\u00a0\u00a0 You have my full attention.<\/p>\n

So call me. 1-877-WED-IN-HAWAII.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

I promise, I will enjoy planning your wedding, much more, than watching a UH football game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
