Has there been a noticeable economic effect on the economy of Tallahassee with FSU going 0 for September???

It's scary how much we think alike. We gave up season tickets after 31 years of making the trip from Jacksonville, mostly because our 3 sons had graduated from college and moved away. We all missed it at first but by the 2nd season we realized it wasn't so bad.
I cannot believe what I hear the hotel rates are these days, and a 2 night minimum........geesh
The kids graduating was definitely a game-changer in terms of my willingness to just “blindly” run to Tallahassee every (or every other) weekend.

I also realized the first ~25 years of my extreme FSU addiction — and we used to do many of the road games too — were very Bowden-centric. After he left — and I saw more and more jerks and/or buffoons running the thing, or poorly representing us — it dawned on me that I loved Bobby more than I loved the program. At that point I started analyzing “value” and “enjoyment,” and — after the kids graduated — realized I wasn’t getting much in Tallahassee.
