Please see alternate routes posted above. It is not 1924, it is 2024. Cullowhee is not totally cut off from the rest of the world. I don’t know why the school shut down for a week. Anyone who wants to get to campus can get to campus. Will take them longer but they can get there. It is ridiculous to think there aren’t any alternate routes people can take unless they are lazy or don’t own a GPS device. If the game does not happen, it is because we do not want to play it.

I was going to try to go to the Wofford game but i think I am going to stay home. I have friends up there that say there is no water and no gas for right now and I have a feeling even if they have the game there will be very few people there. People like me that are unsure of road conditions and other issues like lack of gas in the area and many students have left before the storm and some since so very few are on campus

Just wondering:
I just talked to a very dear friend of mine that is a very loyal Cats fan, and he can't see how our game at home against Wofford can be played, because of the condition of the roads in the southwestern area of North Carolina.
If we do play the game, and it's played in Cullowhee, I am predicting the Cats to win 28 to 14.
Prayers for all the families in Western North Carolina that are suffering with the flooding that they have experienced because of Hurricane Helene.
GO CATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The game needs to be played and if attendence takes a hit that is understandable.....If fans really want to come they can research a SAFE way......Do your homework and yes it might take longer but be safe.....

As I posted in the other thread, moving the game also doesn't seem to make a lot of sense, either. If it would be safe enough for WCU to drive through these roads to get somewhere, seems like it would also be safe for Wofford to drive those same roads to get to Cullowhee.
If it truly is not safe to travel in and out of the Cullowhee area, then the game should be postponed (which really probably means canceled) because I wouldn't want the Cats traveling, either.

That's really the big question isn't it? Will there be a safe way to get to the game and home. There may or may not be a safe way by then. If not, remember, this is just a game and not worth endangering teams or fans lives for the sake of some fans wanting to have the game no matter what. I think officials will err on the side of caution when deciding if the game is to be played or not and I will not second guess them if they call it off under these circumstances.

If there isn't a route into and out of the Cullowhee area then maybe we should cancel all fall sports until next year and this will take the risk of people getting hurt or worse.....Maybe play it safe......
