It's a Christmas Merchandising Miracle!

[UNT 90 Grad]

After hearing UNT called out amongst other schools in the recent Rally House Texas radio ads, I thought I'd swing by the Fairview Rally House location to see if by chance they ever did add a UNT section. I'd been going in there periodically before and through the football season and they continued to tell me it was coming, but nothing ever showed up.

Well, I went in there this week and low and behold, there is now a UNT section! It's right in between the Arkansas and SMU sections. Therefore, if you live in central Collin County and are looking for some last Christmas gifts, please swing by Rally House in Fairview and show them that it was a good decision to get the UNT section up and running again. I spoke with a sales associate and she told me the UNT gear has been in high demand. She said they've been having to have UNT merchandise transferred over from the Plano store to keep up with the demand in Fairview. Some of the merchandise I saw includes:

• Hoodies
• T-shirts (adult and youth as well as women cut)
• Polos
• Infant Onesies
• Fleece tops
• Shorts
• Caps (adult and child)
• Knit hats
• Car emblems
• Finger nail decals
• iPhone cases
• Pencils
• Bottle openers
• Koozies
• Key chains

Glad the Fairview location has some good merchandise. The Fort Worth location only offers up 3 different t-shirts, but they carry a whole rack of UTA gear.

Posts like these just make me sad.

Went to the Frisco location yesterday. Nothing. Literally not a single UNT item.

I'll keep supporting the Plano location...and now the Fairview location if I'm ever in that area.

Do they have adult onesies?

Rally House Dallas Tollway has a good selection of North Texas merch. Confirmed last week.

You mean a Festivus miracle?

Sams Club in Denton has some of the best deals on NT gear I've ever seen. It's usually a pretty classic design and very well made.

Wow this is a miracle. I've been giving them hell for 3 years!

You're talking about the store on the Fairview side of Stacy, right? Just making sure there isn't a new store in Allen somewhere I didn't know about.

I was in Grapevine this weekend and did the mall and main street. It turns my stomach when I see UTSA and Texas State gear and NO North Texas Stuff. Embarrassing.

Barefoot. Elm Street.

The Rally House in Plano has a good amount of UNT Gear. It's up front too.....

was in Sam's Club in Denton this morning. Saw 3 styles of UNT t-shirts, 1 cap, and several toboggans (head coverings). The cap was pretty nice looking but the t-shirts were IMO cheap looking.

The holiday commercial for Rally House that runs on KTCK even states that they carry UNT gear.

Rally House in Flower Mound has a good selection. And it takes up an entire area.

The new Academy in Denton has a buttload of stuff.

But then again, if you're that close, then it pays to just head over to the Bookstore or the team store at Apogee. Campus bookstore is the only place I've been able to find the Nike knit beanie cap like the players wear on the sideline.

Just hit the bookstore before hoops tonight. Biggest selection I have seen anywhere, but glad to hear we are getting stuff scattered across the metroplex.

Do they have adult onesies?

Nice of you to consider buying the basketball coaches a little something.

[MeanGreenDan]

Just stopped by the store. A bunch of clothes for babies, and some for big women. Neither of which do I have.

I retract my miracle comment.

[UNT90]

Just left Rally House on Overton Ridge in Fort Worth.

No UNT merch. Nothing. At all. One county away.

Oh, and also no 49er merch. Maybe they think we are the University of North California?

While buying a North Texas bottle opener key chain at Rally House in Fairview last night, the manager struck up a conversation with me. She asked what I thought about the "growing" North Texas section. She said that their buyers still weren't buying UNT gear for their store, so they started selling overstock items from the Plano store to sell in order to show their buyers that the UNT gear would sell from the Fairview store. (That explains why some of the assortment is a bit odd.) She said that the UNT merchandise is selling very well.

There is proportionally larger selection of infant stuff than you'd normally expect, so if you have little ones, consider hitting that store. It's kind of selfish, but I'd like to see the UNT gear sell well here so they'll start carrying more. It's convenient to my house along with some of the other gomeangreeners.
