Simply Put....NO WAY! Somethings are more important than money. Cougar Spirit is one of them. Come to Pullman to keep the rivalry up.

The odd-year Apple Cup in Seattle, at Quest Field, is a good idea.
More Cougs will get better seats, likely the Cougs will out number the Dawg and the Cougs will win more Apple Cups. It won't be a Husky home game any more - advantage Cougs !
The even-year Apple Cup should remain in Pullman. The Cougar Nation always fillsthe stadium, this is a function that I go to every time in my motorhome for a 3 day weekend. Moving the Pullman game to Seattle is a bad idea

AWFUL IDEA! Not only does it mean that UW gets a home game, but it means that fans and students from eastern washington would have to drive/fly/stay each year in Seattle! That takes away hotel, restaurant, and not to mention Alumni money from Pullman and Spokane. It is an unfair advantage for UW and for Seattle that believe me (I live here) doesn't need anymore money! Sure the roads suck, sure it is freezing outside, but that is tradition and that is what the game is about! Get over yourself Jim Sterk and leave WSU because if you don't want to be there we can find someone else who does!

Bad idea! Another way to sell tickets to the highest bidders instead of the long time season ticket holders. Let the coug's play their one game a year in Qwest, and leave the Husky's at Husky Stadium.

Bad idea. This game is about home field advantage versus the opposing team's season W-L record. I say let school spirit rule and let the Dawgs ride their buses into the frozen Palouse in late November.

Great idea because now I never, ever have to go to Pullman for the Apple Cup! Worst drive ever to that part of the state. We should actually let Idaho have Pullman. Also helps the Dawgs' chance of winning since it will be basically in their backyard and the cougs will have to play on the road every year.

I do not support this at all and believe this is just the first step in Gates Sr. and Emmert's plan to blow up Husky Stadium and expand UW Medical Center in it''s place.

Bad for both teams. Husky stadium sells out and has 5500 more seats. It would be an additional 30000 more seats for the Cougs but they are unlike to win outside their stadium.
