crackerbarrel in denton

I know that a lot of you are frustrated by the impotence of the CLC licensing program at UNT, but here is a good story. I was in Cracker Barrel in Denton yesterday and noticed a lot of North Texas t-shirts and caps. The shirts all had the new logo and aren't bad. The caps were the outdated artwork type, but at least they were available. Anyway, the only other college shirts that were displayed were Texas. No TCU, no SMU, no Texas Tech, etc. All the buying by Cracker Barrel is done from their corporate office in Tennessee. If we were not nationally licensed we would never have been chosen for a purchase by Cracker Barrel. I talked to the buyer for the Denton store and she was happy to have North Texas stuff, but emphasized that the buy was done out of the Tennessee HQ.

i was in there the other day and was very happy to finally see our gear somewhere in denton. i hate it when i go into home depot and see the A&M, UT rugs and no UNT rug. if you're going to locate a college town, shouldn't you try to sell their stuff?

Two years ago I noticed that Cracker Barrell had no NT to sell. Took the time to contact Nashville and complain. Last year they had NT shirts, caps, sweatshirts etc. Glad to see they are still selling the NT stuff.

Good to hear, thanks for the report.
