What will our attendance be @SMU?

[Ben Gooding]

Go and wear green.  Not the white or black or pink that says "North Texas" in little letters in the corner.  From across the field and on television white or black or pink could be Southern Meth fans.  Nothing says Mean Green better than GREEN.  And nothing will state how well NT travels better than a bunch of green clad fans.  Ford Field needs to rock green September 12.

 

GO MEAN GREEN

With the students there, I think we could very well range into the 7-8K territory. Possibly more. SMU fans will be on meltdown. I think the game will be a sellout. 

Since this is the first game and there's no bodybag game to dishearten the new freshmen, they're treating it like a home game. I expect 5K students and somewhere close to that in alumni turnout.

We need KingDL1 or a pilot fan to fly overhead and take some proof pictures.  You know SMU is going to downplay our crowd as they always do.

This is why I was hoping the game would be on TV, I guess we have ESPN 3. The next best thing is seeing the truth on TV, when people are witnessing a sea of green in the stands,

I hope like hell you are right.  This would make it VERY hard for SMU to buy out of the remainder of our series.  They have attendance issues and we can help them in that particular regard.

I can confirm that, yes, the entire Green Brigade is traveling to the SMU game!

This will help the numbers and the sea of green! also will help with the home field advantage, favoring the Good Guys and not the bad guys

Does anyone know if this game is getting hyped at SMU like it is here?  Just curious...

Doubtful.   It's our first game of the year.    SMU plays Baylor at Ford the week before (Fri 9/4).  They'll turn their attention to us starting 9/5.

Drones Harry. Drones. Have BTG put you in contact with a Drone cameraman and shoot this thing a la drones.

GO MEAN GREEN

I need to heed these words. Most of my UNT gear is not green.  Granted, if it was, I would have 10 shades of green in my closet. Still, I will make sure I have green on for this game. I want the team to see we showed up in a big way.

Im starting to wonder if North Texas will bring more people to the game than SMU

^this is going to happen

This would be hard to do with SMU so close to Love field.

Athletics team photographer Rick Yeatts does drone stuff.

But he'll be busy shooting the game action that night.

[emmitt01]

Ford Field is within the radius surrounding Love Field classified as Class B air space.  Without special permission (and likely a pilot's license of some sort) a drone is not an option.

[Mean Green 93-98]

You know, you could just walk around and take pictures of the crowd from different angles in the stadium.

then how do they operate one at practice? They use drones to film practice

[greenit]

Gasp.  SMU ignore the rules?

[UNTLifer]

I truly hope we bring enough people this year to force their hand to bring in more SMU folks into Apogee next year. What a disappointment that was last year to see the visitor's section so empty.

Why?  That is what they bring to their home games.

Easily.

Dangit! maybe we could use carrier pigeons? go old school with it.

[HoustonEagle]

UNT fans talking smack about attendance never ceases to amuse me.
