VIP list we need to invite courtside for Va game

[Tom McKrackin]

1.  Randy Travis - guy is a legend and tremendous talent.  Really created a stir at the last game he attended and would love to have him on the courtside again.

2.  Mean Joe Greene - I get that he is a football guy but he is a cultural icon and it would be great to have him back on campus.

3.  Patty Cobbs - Hey it's St. Patricks day and I couldn't leave out our favorite alum and coach.  Plus he has that big smile that does well on the big screen

4.  Michael Williams - Love seeing Dr. Smatresk but would also like to see the new Chancellor

5.  Cynthia Izaguirre - The channel 8 broadcaster is a proud alum and would guarantee some good local TV coverage of the game

6.  RV - would love to see RV down on the court again seeing all the success he built for us.

Feel free to add or subtract as needed.

This is how you do it, folks...TFLF is the master

I don't know.  I think this is a trap game.

A halftime performance with Randy Travis AND George Strait.

Provided Texas Southern loses today, I'd invite Josh White.

RV has ALWAYS been a great supporter of the program.

I would love to see him involved with the athletic department over "game day experience". Wren is incredible with running the business side; hiring, scheduling, budgeting etc but pays very little attention to other gameday experience amenities like tailgating, bands (Beer Man), adherence to school colors, providing pom-poms at events, basketball band, etc. He just doesn't seem to notice the importance of those details.

The two of them work together well. We should utilize the talents of each.

Stone Cold would be fun to see.  Would love to see Craig Robertson now he has retired.

RV was good at pushing green but there was nothing special about our game presentation from then to now. It’s always been awful.

Don Henley would be neat.  Also would like to see Patricia Racette sing the national anthem.

[meangreen11]

It would be neat to see some type of support for Ukraine as well. 🇺🇦

I choose to believe if this really were TFLF, he would have put Derek Thompson on this list.

UNT alum Norah Jones singing Lone “Green” Star with her fellow UNT alum Don Henley as he’s sings harmony & plays Norah’s old man’s (Ravi Shankar) sitar?  

🎟 (Just ordered my ticket in Section 121 which is almost sold out—methinks we will have another good turnout again).

Based on the scoring in this game, this will feel like a game in quicksand…

Don't count on him stepping foot on campus ever again. Dude is very full of himself.

Always has been.  Glenn Frey was the better half of those two. Henley thinks he’s some kind of an east Texas philosopher.  Still love his “Building the Perfect Beast” album from the mid-1980’s, though.

Shoot Whataburgers out of the T-Shirt Cannon!

Bring back the Chicken Toss with a live Chicken!

Bring back Ashley Pickle for a guest appearance in a pickle costume. 

Invite Craig Helwig and see if he can identify our school colors from a multiple choice list on the video board. He might be able to do so with the help of the audience.

Invite the kid and have him reenact the Coca-Cola commercial with Mean Joe live during a break.

Light cut as intros are about to play and all you hear is broken glass as a four wheel rolls out from the tunnel….. I could dig it. The pop would be loud I bet. Even Virginia fans would love it.
