Yeah, no matter how you go you will get stuck in it.  However, I would avoid Main Street.  You can stay on I-10 and take the the exit to HWY 90 (right after the Vidor exit) stay on the feeder.  Cross over the tracks and take a right on 90.  When you get to the blinking red light, take a left (only way you can go).  Go all the way down to the stop sign which is Orange Street.  Take a right and go about 1/2 mile and you will be right in front of the school.

Dogs have to forfeit the game due to traffic headed to the stadium and can't make it on time! 

Doggies drown in deep water trying to catch the quick moving Pirate Ship as it sets sail to next week 4-0.

This is awesome!! Love it!!

But when Nederland ISD requested more tickets, Vidor should've sent them. They are our tickets after all. Makes no sense to sell them at the gate rather than early, it's quite dumb actually. That being said, I will make a scene if I see ANY Vidor fans on the Nederland side. [/quote] Go ahead. Make a scene. It will just cause your game experience in Vidor a little short this year. Not that you will be missed much.  ::) [/quote] Well, if we see the police escorting a rowdy NED fan away from the stands we know who it is!!  ;D

[/quote] Great post. +1 [/quote] Agreed, great post.  Now maybe Ned fans will take your word for it since they have yet to believe the Pirates this entire time.

PiratesGirl4ever how would you like to drive to Nederland without a ticket walk up to the gate and soon as you get to the gate and they tell you sorry, but we are sold out? Wouldn't you rather Nederland send all their visitors tickets to VHS and let you buy them there so you don't have to drive accorss the neches river just to findout you will not have a ticket for the game and have to drive back accorss the neches back home? Of course you could listen to the game on KLVI 560AM, home of Nederland Football [/quote] If my family showed up and the game was sold out, so be it.  I would find another way to watch.  There's a lot of fans that do not even know you can buy tickets at the school.  A lot of them think the only way to get away game tickets are at the stadium the day of.

Your own fans posted that the homeside is sold out. Nederland is told we can't buy tickets until 6pm at the gate Friday.  The sign posted on the front door of Vidor HS says they will sell you tickets starting 8am Thursday and Friday!!!!!!  So, tell me, who's tickets are they selling then to the Vidor Fans hmmmm? !!!!! [/quote] Oh yay! I always liked the color red!!  Anyways, Nederland fans can go buy tickets at the high school starting Thursday.  I said this on the last thread and I'll say it again.  Every year each school gets the SAME amount of tickets from Vidor.  Now, when those tickets are gone, they are GONE. We do not send anymore.  The remaining tickets will be sold at the school starting Thursday and up until probably 11 am Friday then at the Visitor gate at 6 pm Friday.  The police that patrol that night do not let Vidor fans past the visitor ticket booth, they kindly ask you to turn around and go back to the home side.  Vidor fans are not allowed to sit on the visitor side nor sit on that side.

We, Vidor, has always held back tickets to sell at the gate. That's the way it has been for probably 40+ years now. Why bring it up now? That's like me starting a thread complaining about how touchdown are 6 points when i think they should be 9. [/quote] Oh Oh I can answer that one for you.  Vidor told our school that tickets will go on sale for us to buy at the gate starting at 6pm on Friday, well well well, that's all fine and dandy if that's what you were really going to do, but it's not, you guys are selling the tickets starting Thursday so they can get bought up by Vidor fans and when our fans show up Friday we can get the rude "This game is sold out" sign.  Nice try once again, Vidor ISD wants respect and to be labeled a class act with good sportsmanship, well you won't be known by those standards anytime soon conducting yourselves like this.  So, in conclusion to answering your question, yes, we are complaining now because you guys haven't done this in the past to us.  Shameful that you have to go through such measures that you think may help your team win.  Truth of the matter, doesn't matter if the Nederland Fans are in the stands or outside the fence...a Vidor loss is a Vidor loss come this Friday night!

[quote name="Eagle11" post="1281013" timestamp="1348517323"] I still don't get why Vidor would only send a set amount. And even if they don't send them up front, when Nederland says they are out why not send more? They said they would be for sale at the [b]visitors gate[/b] so why not presale and not have to worry about folks having to man the booths to sell tickets at the game. That is why I said that, on the surface, it appears it is a way of allowing more Vidor fans in.....if not, why not send all the tickets to Nederland and let them sell them all.....sounds like they would [/quote] I understand what you are saying, each year they send each district the same amount.  However, if Vidor sent all of the tickets to Nederland to sell and fans started showing up at the gate that didn't purchase tickets ahead of time they would end up being turned away.  No matter what, somebody will be mad.

[quote name="GoDogs27" post="1281006" timestamp="1348516704"] [quote author=PirateGirl4ever link=topic=103624.msg1280887#msg1280887 date=1348512303] I know for a fact that VISD sent an abundance of tickets to NISD.  This is an issue you need to take up with your own school district and not try to drag another school district thru the mud based on your personal assumptions. [/quote] Nobody is dragging anybody through the mud. Facts are facts. For whatever reason, Vidor won't send anymore. The standard procedure seems to be for the home school to send more tickets if the away school is low the week of but Vidor wont. This is coming from a reliable source at NISD. Someone who handles these tickets. Just wondering... Is this Vidor's homecoming? [/quote] Vidor only sends a certain amount to each school district, they do not "take away" tickets, each district gets the same amount.  No, it's not, our homecoming is against PNG.  Once the district is out, that's it, the rest are sold at the visitor gates. This was the post I was referring to regarding dragging through the mud.........By Coach Pops.....This comes down to being a totally classless act with the intent to disrespect an entire community for the sake of pissing people off. It is childish and irresponsible behavior and a terrible example of bad sportsmanship. Kudos to the p---k that hatched this crap. This is a heck of an example to set for your community and students. If Nederland did something this sorry to an opponent I would be at the admin. building getting a king sized piece of someones butt. This foolish act has totally overpowered all the positive steps the Vidor community has made in the minds of fair people. The backlash will be tremendous and deserved.

Vidor sends the same amount to each school district for all away games. They probably sold them first to current season ticket holders then to the public.  Hence the reason there is only XX amount tickets left.  Just one of the perks of being a season ticket holder!  If Vidor would have sent all of their visitor tickets to Ned, don’t you think fans that didn’t go to the school district the week of the game or before would be ticked if they were turned away at the gate because they didn’t purchase the tickets at the school??
