which moved this day from an already 'excellent' to a 'stupendous' day! But has anyone other than me noticed that the printing quality and aesthetics of Iowa's season tickets are looking cheaper and cheaper each year? I mean, this year they're not even printed in full color -- just black and gold ink with cheap-looking player images.

My understanding is that they cut the printing budget to offset Gary Barta's salary increase.
I got mine Friday,, what I noticed is that they usually throw in some coupons, or a magnet, or a mini-schedule. Not this year, instead I got some advertising from a company that I have never heard of before. The whores in the marketing department are alive and well.

Even the 2019 poster looks kind of cheap, probably had to cut corners to pay Barta's new salary raise

I got a new Vizio TV a few weeks ago right before the season!
Seriously, I can see why they wouldn't spend a lot of coin on tickets anymore. Heck, when ordering tickets have the time one just prints them off anyway. All they really need is a bar code. I can see why they don't think should spend the $$ on fancy tickets.
I did get a new TV, though!

Did they take those malware advertisements off of them yet? I bought a new tv recently and Vizio had a bunch of complaints about embedded ads in the load screen or something.

I have a 60 inch Visio tv. It's a great tv for sports and movies, but don't expect the remote control to last long. After a few years, last summer I had to buy a new one through the Visio web site. One plus is that the remotes are all the same so you don't have to program them for your tv.
