Silver!! Didn't realize you were so kinky!

North Texas fan....getting flogged with barbed wire........both masochistic tendencies and/or an event. One just takes longer than the other.....

What KRAM1 said

[Green Jackal]

I will be going to support UNT Football. The different coaches, players, fans and administrators will come and go, but as long football is being played at UNT, I will be there.

Saw something today on the electronic billboard by the SuperPit about the game ball being delivered by skydivers. Anybody else see that?

Does anyone know if some type of flyover is planned?

That is really cool. We did that back in '78 and '79----but with just a regular skydiver delivering the game ball. I'm sure these skydivers will be soldiers, which will be even better.

[NM Green]

i'll be there because I bought the plane ticket after the WKU game! My goal is to have one more fun crazy time with all the greenbloods who are living alongside me through this bloodcurdling year.

it will be a special environment and fun until they start running it down our throats.

Don't ask, don't tell.

The Army Black Knights Parachute Team will be jumping into the stadium. The members of the team are cadets at West Point.

Saw this live last year -- really freaking cool.

[ntsumgspe]

Will be there as always. Got 8 additional fans/victims to come out. Looking forward to the stadium groundbreaking, great tailgating, a great crowd, and a MEAN GREEN VICTORY !!!

Also, found this on the parachute teams website ... November 19 - 22 - Demo team travels to North Texas to jump into the University of North Texas on 21 Nov!

GO MEAN GREEN !!!

2009 MEAN GREEN FOOTBALL : NO MORE EXCUSES !!!

[DeepGreen]

I attended the Houston Texans vs SF 49's game a few weeks ago and three paratroopers made the jump into Reliant Stadium with the game ball and American Flag. Very patriotic game, with both Bush Presidents there for the coin toss, several "wounded warriors" in attendance, and the halftime show featured the U.S. Marine Silent Drill Team from the Marine Barracks, Washington, D.C. Tremendous event and support from the fans.

[NTEdgex2]

We'll be there. I will always support NT, "no matter what." As an old Air Force brat, any time we play one of the academy teams, it's makes the game even more special to me.

GMG!

If you're interested, here are some photos of the Black Knights Parachute Team jumping into Miche Stadium at West Point along with some typical West Point game day photos.

Great photos...brings back some great memories of being on that campus. These cadets support their team win, lose or draw. They never give up on their team and the team never gives up on them. Just like all the service academies...West Point, Annapolis, Air Force, Merchant Marine and Coast Guard!

This will be a great day for UNT. I am excited and pleased to be able to be part of it and I fully expect a great game...with the Mean Green winning, of course!

[mrsgreengoblin]

Me and my other half will be there.

I think I will drag my best friend along too. She doesn't care much about football but she likes to tailgate/drink and it will be one more butt in seat.

I'm really excited to watch them bring the game ball in! That sounds really cool.

[TheTastyGreek]

Why do they gotta be "Black" Knights? Why can't they just be "Knights"??

Anyway, racial stuff aside... I've seen the Black Knights show before, and I was not impressed. Very hackneyed, and ultimately just plain dumb.

Not even worth a rental, in my opinion.

Tasty are you feeling OK? Tired?

Just a little weak, I have grown to expect better from you. Maybe you are just down from the lack of winning. Or maybe it is because I saw that stupid movie.

Please redeem yourself.

[FloMoGrad]

I'll be there for Ground Breaking thru opening Kickoff...Then I get to drive to the in-laws in Houston for Thanksgiving dinner (I had no say in this event planning)...Get to wake up the next morning at 5:00 to drive back to Flower Mound to change and head to the Cowboys-Redskins game...

Best I could do...

MeanMag can vouch for this...

Back at the last job he and I worked together, one of the regular jokes from our running commentary was inappropriate racial outrage. When someone uses the color to identify something innocuous and not at all racially oriented, we would use the innocent remark to imply that they had some sort of racist secret agenda. Whenever someone mentioned Black Friday after Thanksgiving, or someone driving in a black car... It was always: "Why does it have to be a BLACK ____?"

It's one of those things that wasn't even necessarily funny for any specific case, just a cumulative thing that always made everyone in the office laugh. Sort of like "That's what she said" for our old workplace.

I've never seen Black Knight. My sympathies to you, sir.

[untStein]

I'm going to try to make it. Like some others on this board, I have a very hard time getting anyone to go to games with me. My wife and most my friends couldn't care less- they are typical NT students/alums. There's a good chance I can get my dad to go, though.

OK then I feel better, though the inside joke was obviously lost on me.

Your sympathies are appreciated and needed, I am sure I damaged brain cells (I need all I can get) just watching Black Knight shame on Martin Lawrence.
