Please wear GREEN at the Bowl Game

[greenjoe]

I think it's important that North Texas fans wear green January 1. Not black, not white, not grey, but green. Let the bowl officials this year know who is who. And for that matter, let bowl officials for future bowls know how well the Mean Green travel. On television, or from across the field, no one can read who's team you're supporting. Wear GREEN so there's no question.

Done.

[NT91]

Yes

The importance of this cannot be overstated. It may in fact be more important, all things considered, than the final score.

Well yeah, what other color would I wear?

Go to a Mean Green club event sometime. Like the signing party in February or the kick-off event in late August. And then come back and ask the question again.

My biggest concern is if its cold/if we're in the shade. Most of our fans don't own a kelly green jacket (UNT specific ones aren't really for sale). There's a huge difference in the look of our crowd for warm weather games vs. cold (such as UTSA)

Well throw on a UNT or a green hat or a green sweater, who cares if it's UNT as long as it's green. Well in going to the UNT v SFA game. Hopefully it's not a close game, that'd be a shame.

[Greenrex]

I wonder if one of the clubs would be interested in selling something like this at game?

Lime is not a color. It's a fruit. It has never been an NT color. Closest was Flying worm years when it was apple green.

I think he was joking...I hope?

I will be wearing Mean Green gear most every day until New Years Day...then I'll wear green on that day, too. Not that difficult a thing to do for most of us on this forum.

GMG!

PS: Had 3 already today see my Mean Green T shirt which I wear over my black long sleeved sweat shirt show me a thumbs up and 1 upbeat and positive comment about our bowl game as well over at Walmart.

Told one Walmart employee whose daughter is a UNT frosh how I'd bet she would like an early Christmas gift of 1 or 2 "$25" tickets for the HOD Bowl game. He said he might need one of those for himself. He had no idea our bowl game was at the Cotton Bowl stadium and was duly impressed.

If it's cold I'll wear my black hooded jacket, which will match our team's uniforms. I will, however, be wearing a green North Texas cap and have a Texas flag (green/white) stadium blanket.

[greenjoe]

The very cold weather possibility poses a challenge.

Perhaps a "way too big 'T' shirt" over a parka.

Just as long as the color exposed to the world and bowl officials is green.

An interesting observation earlier, "the importance of this cannot be overstated."

Heck, what is the forecast for New Years Day anyway?

I spoke to a TxDOT employee the other day who said this last ice spell was our all time worst for ice buildup. I told him we'd had several of these over the decades but he responded to that with this: "Usually, its just 1 or 2 inches of ice on our interstates but last week we had an unprecended "4" inches of ice covering most of our DFW area interstates" (He had worked for TxDOT for over 40 years, too).

PS: Darn shame those who were responsible for the Cotton Bowl re-do didn't get their wish (or funding) for a sliding roof.

Jim, don't you know that if it had a sliding roof that they wouldn't have contracted with C-USA? It would have been two P5 teams only.

Ask for GREEN North Texas gear for Christmas.

[UNT90]

Well in going to the UNT v SFA game. Hopefully it's not a close game, that'd be a shame.

Well, that kinda worked out.

In a completely awful way.

That looks black. From across the Cotton Bowl or on television, people won't know who'you're cheering for.

What color green should I wear?

True.

I too need to buy additional fan attire for guests and would strongly prefer green. If anyone knows of any equal or better deals please let us know.

These were the two best green fan options that I'm aware of in the less than $20 price range but unfortunately Finish Line is alseady sold out of both.
