Oh, I forgot to ask about the weird signs at our game that were similar to ones at other bowl games. Did you guys see them? They had 4 pictures, of a celebrity, a food item, etc. on each one. What the heck was up with that?

Mmmmm..... all about that Beyoncé Taco Lady.

Don't get me wrong, I'd eat a Beyoncé taco, but there were similar signs at other bowls including tonight's NC. Drives me nuts not knowing what they are.

It's not just a bowl game thing. This has been part of many team's strategies for years.

These looked pre-printed, like by ESPN or something, and had similar themes, none of which had anything to do with the teams playing as far as I could tell. Very weird and I've been curious ever since ours.

It was a pretty whirlwind trip for me, but totally worth it. The biggest bummer, by far, was TastyGreek getting food poisoned and not being able to make the game. It was inspiring to see so much green on the train and in the stands at the Cotton Bowl.

One of my all time favorite sporting events to ever see live.

This. In my time of following this program, we've gone from so few fans that the Pregame Band music bouncing off of the empty bleachers at Fouts (which litterally made CMJ and I sick to our stomachs) to 30K+ packed shoulder to shoulder.. It was a great sight to behold.

I talked to Eric Capper yesterday,and he said that he would follow up with HOD and see if there were any programs left. If so, he would try to get them and make available to UNT fans.

Answers to several questions previously posted.

The Programs were being sold at the souveneir tables.

The "Crazy Signs that team use on the sideline" questions.

Some teams use them to signal in formations, pass protections, plays.

Some teams use them as decoys for the afore mentioned purposes.

Which does UNT use them for.... I'll never tell.

      My non UNT co worker that has no interest in football just sent me this reel. It’s a very cool story! I hope he sticks around and pushes Poffenbager. Iron sharpens iron.

      So sick of the crap this football program slings us

      So it’s Jared right? He can make it happen. Meaning he has the power to assemble Talons, Maniacs and Green Brigade Leadership this month to plan for the creation and execution of the DATCU Energy Experience this fall. I would think our band would learn from other bands that out excite them. But they don’t. They don’t copy them, try offshoot efforts of them…I see nuances which can be cool but I’m talking about a full in game production transformation. Which needs to include: Pregame March. Pregame field sets. Stand music sets. Chant alignment at the quarters and kickoff. Big 3rd quarter close. There is power in numbers and their efforts could ignite the alumni side. We need coordinated chants like TSU’s eat em up eat em up go cats go or something like that. I also miss Fky Like An Eagle Go Green Go White… We used to have an awesome 3rd down Green Brigade set always played at the right time and only on that down. I’m not meaning to come down on the GB because this is a leadership focus. But the time is now. Season is over. All amazing performances have terrifically designed practices, rituals and coordinated forces behind them. Jared may even consider a Fan Council to help with idea generation, program research, connection support…give council members a 2 year term and they collaborate monthly with feedback to the athletic board regularly. That would be 6-7 Council meetings to spawn community, dormant alumni, and student engagement before opening day. Let’s get some things going then we can talk about that cool Rangerette type crew for the stands down the line. See TSU, Alabama, Auburn most programs in the SEC. First things first. GMG
