I'm not particularly interested in paying for admission

Just so the mediocre football program gets more money to help spread CTE to the next generation. Would much rather contribute to something like this.

Softball Admission Fundraiser Update
VTChip • 04/07/25 04:12 PM ET
Chip: is there a vision of where funds will be used?
VAHokie89 • 04/07/25 10:04 PM ET
It is a combination of needed items.
VTChip • 04/08/25 08:11 AM ET
Christmas comes early. :-)**
Atlee Hokie • 04/08/25 09:17 AM ET
The gear is a REALLY big deal for the players
VTChip • 04/08/25 09:21 AM ET
Thanks for stoking the fire. Bunt $ on its way. I counted 2?
TomTurkey • 04/08/25 09:22 AM ET
You rock, sir!**
VTChip • 04/08/25 09:24 AM ET
Story: bunting was one of the few ways I got on base. Could steal 2 IF on.
TomTurkey • 04/08/25 10:06 AM ET
I've counted 5 since season start.
Atlee Hokie • 04/08/25 09:24 AM ET
I remember one preseason, we saw a pic of all the gear
VTsportscaster • 04/07/25 10:19 PM ET
Right now, there is no compelling reason to advocate for tickets for SB
Chesapeake_Hokie • 04/07/25 08:01 PM ET
The compelling reasons are 1 - the program is worth more than "free" and
laphroaig • 04/08/25 03:31 AM ET
Thank you a bunch!!! I think you're probably correct.**
VTChip • 04/07/25 08:43 PM ET
BOOM!!!!! Just went to the mailbox - we are now over $8,000 in donations
VTChip • 04/07/25 05:10 PM ET
Ok the Montana and Idaho are flipping awesome!!**
VTsportscaster • 04/07/25 10:17 PM ET
Oh looky VT AD is wrong again about people paying “admission”
Brewing_Hokie • 04/07/25 05:08 PM ET
The irony of this situation is rich.........
2hhoop3 • 04/07/25 08:57 PM ET
Ya know, if they would present the facts with realistic computations
RJHokie • 04/07/25 09:17 PM ET
Reason #6492 WB needs to be shown the door and put out to pasture.**
ancient alien 2018 • 04/07/25 11:38 PM ET
They have no facts to present, so they play hide the ball.**
NokieHokie • 04/07/25 09:38 PM ET
"Tickets? We don't need no stinkin' softball tickets". **
ancient alien 2018 • 04/07/25 11:39 PM ET
Yeah, baffle ‘em with bull💩……
RJHokie • 04/07/25 09:40 PM ET
My auto reaction is "Not much".**
Atlee Hokie • 04/08/25 09:21 AM ET
Facts! Facts! Whit don't need no stinkin' facts! He's got
saret • 04/07/25 09:31 PM ET
Well, I doubt everybody in the stadium last weekend was aware
schubee • 04/07/25 07:12 PM ET
But there isn't and won't be unless VT AD wakes up**
TomTurkey • 04/07/25 08:12 PM ET
And yet I bet Chip would raise more than the school…**
Brewing_Hokie • 04/07/25 07:39 PM ET
I'm not particularly interested in paying for admission ◄
HokieGAK • 04/07/25 05:27 PM ET
Keep in mind the "mediocre" football program funds most Olympic sports
ancient alien 2018 • 04/07/25 11:43 PM ET
That’s your choice… but when a lot of high schools even charge…**
Brewing_Hokie • 04/07/25 08:32 PM ET
And Softball keeps it all if the play fairly**
TomTurkey • 04/07/25 05:13 PM ET
Speaking as someone from another ACC program
VT_AD • 04/07/25 05:06 PM ET
We owe it all to Chip.**
saret • 04/07/25 05:31 PM ET
I've heard. . . .His enthusiasm is contagious. :-)**
laphroaig • 04/07/25 07:03 PM ET
Contagious Enthusiasm! I laughed! I played drums in a theater production
DonHo-kieHi • 04/08/25 12:12 AM ET
Are you saying Chip reminds you of Dracula? :-)**
laphroaig • 04/08/25 03:28 AM ET
Or an inmate of an insane asylum!**
DonHo-kieHi • 04/08/25 03:44 AM ET
I've seen it 👍**
TomTurkey • 04/07/25 08:13 PM ET
Chip, hopefully, my wife and I will be at the game Tomorrow.
saret • 04/07/25 04:45 PM ET
They should monitor the board…….
RJHokie • 04/07/25 06:45 PM ET
But if they didn't think of it, is it worthy of a 2md thought?
Atlee Hokie • 04/07/25 09:25 PM ET
Learning something......
2hhoop3 • 04/07/25 06:55 PM ET
No question about that!**
RJHokie • 04/07/25 07:01 PM ET
I think we got a clue from CH's accosting of @VTChip that someone
saret • 04/07/25 06:49 PM ET
CH should monitor it himself.
RJHokie • 04/07/25 06:54 PM ET
CH should do a lot of things. A tell was when he said the 5-year old socks
saret • 04/07/25 07:14 PM ET
From the mail today. **
GBOHokie • 04/07/25 04:44 PM ET
Got mine!**
laphroaig • 04/08/25 03:35 AM ET
I got mine today, too…**
WestEndHokie39 • 04/07/25 10:12 PM ET
I got one today.**
Atlee Hokie • 04/07/25 09:27 PM ET
What is somewhat ironic, I haven't got one!...lol**
VTChip • 04/07/25 09:42 PM ET
See earlier comment about Roanoke mail**
ginnyhokie1 • 04/08/25 06:30 AM ET
That's because you are black listed in athletic department. :)**
NokieHokie • 04/07/25 09:56 PM ET
In reality, you are probably close to the truth…..**
RJHokie • 04/07/25 09:57 PM ET
You see, you need to support the softball team to get one. 😀.**
GBOHokie • 04/07/25 09:53 PM ET
ROFL**
