Opening Night Scrimmage

[colhusker]

Was going to ask what the over/under was for opening the upper deck.

[AuroranHusker]

Can someone change the thread title to 'scrimmage' please? @hhcmatt - a month is long enough of scrimage (a la bon voyage)

The return of Cardi B, not Tommy Lee...

[Faux Mike Peltz]

Chance the rapper or Eric Church...either way, I’m bringing ear plugs

Presumably then, the Husker Hoops tweet above is in reference to this:

 

(WARNING: Explicit Lyrics)

 

 

And we'll be seeing Rick Ross at the Opening Night scrimmage.  Which, while cool and all it's just a tad disappointing since this is exactly who Les Miles invited to KU for their spring game, which gave us this cringeworthy moment:

 

 

My hope is we keep Doc as far away from the stage as possible for this one!

At least it’s not some Husker Harvest days reject...

I hope they didn't spend my donation on Bon Jovi 2.0

I am not exactly a rap fan, but all things considered...I am not a rap fan.  

 

 

 

But hey, it isn't about me, it is about the team.

Serious question: with the potential for a bunch of kids in the crowd, they going to ask Rick to not use explicit words??

I would expect this to be a PG performance unless the athletic department wants to get roasted

[hhcmatt]

They started making 300 level tickets available so this very well might turn into a sell out.

[Handy Johnson]

A sellout would be awesome ! And just on the downlow, don’t let Rick Ross’s OG BS fool ya, he use to be a CO...(correctional officer)

His rap persona is believed to be based off the actual drug king pin "Freeway" Ricky Ross.

I would assume its gonna have to be PG but then again you cant really have Rick Ross and be PG. Its an interesting choice.

Assume it was PG for Kansas

I understand Rick plans on inviting Jean Peck up to the stage. Shaping up to be a memorable night.

[Faux Mike Peltz]

I remember the university had Larry the cable guy for an event- they definitely gave a disclaimer it was going to be pg13 and some of his jokes pushed that...but they said ahead of time. Just not sure I want my little daughter exposed to some of those words too early...

[Cazzie22]

Who is Rick Ross?????

[Handy Johnson]

I’ve seen Chance the Rapper in Concert and still don’t know who he is...

[Cowboy Kermit]

DWade will be in the building as well

[Handy Johnson]

If Dwades in the House, I wonder if some of Fred’s homies from the Wolves might make an appearance? KG, Spree, maybe THud? I guess we’ll just have to get use to being a “media darling” with Star ️ Power in the building, that’s how we Roll!

Moos said on his radio show that Rick Ross agreed to “tone it down a bit” for the event.  I suppose “a bit” is subjective...
