The free paper with the scoop on this one. Well done. These should be nice.

I love this line - “in-game crowd prompts.”

Or, "Make NOISE".

I don't know how we managed to support our teams 40 years ago without in-game crowd prompts.

Nice, but not as impressive as when the students changed the long rolls of paper that said Ribs at Ritz to Tits at Ritz on the Hill across the highway in the Fall of 1981. The overweight OU and Athens PD attempting to scale the Hill was probably the highlight of my undergraduate years in Peden.

IMG did the same for Marshall several years ago at The Joan and The Cam. Unfortunately they were used primarily for advertising and very little game-related signage. I'd be thrilled if they were used to provide real time updates of other MAC games or national games of interest.

I always liked the high school game I was at where the ever popular make a message in the chain-link fence with styrofoam cups was used to share "Beat Darby!"

By the third quarter, the curly fry kings were given a free ad, prompting attendees to "Eat Arbys!"

I'm having a hell of a time figuring out where these things will go in either building. Anyone seen a sketch?

I would love it if, in Peden, they installed ribbons across the top of each curved section of stands and then across the top of the academic center. Like The Dude's rug, it would tie the whole room together.

What are the odds that they'll put them up where people can stand in front of them and block the advertisers message! ;-)

Ha! Probably higher than we all imagine.


SBH has the spots in Peden right though, and I agree it would really help to bring things together in there.

In The Convo, I'm assuming the spots they're looking at would be at each end behind the baskets.
