Fellas,

Our mission is to increase attendance at the games. Here are my suggestions.

1) Free admission to all Veterans.

2) Stallion's "Big D" Idea: If SMU could pull this off, it would be a great idea. The only problem is that SMU students think of themselves more as Parkies than citizens of Dallas. Acting like Snobby Bastards will not endear our fine school to the citizens unconnected with the Hilltop.

3) Connection to Local Corporations: American Airlines Day, TI Day, etc.

4) Bring Back Bennett's Talk with Norm: I have never meant any disrespect to Norm when I bash the Ticket.

Sir,
P.S. Just for Stallion I would consider retiring McCown's Jersey

re: "Just for Stallion I would consider retiring McCown's Jersey"

Who would make the presentation? Cavan?

LOL....well at least we know Cavan would be free and available to do the event!

How about:
1. Nickel Beer Night - This would be a great promo for the Baylor game. Heck, we should just give the beer away to all fans dressed in green and gold.
2. Disco Demolition Day - At the end of the game, any one dressed in Disco Attire is allowed to destroy old records and 8 track tapes and riot for 30 minutes. Tear Gas will be available upon request.
3. Be Eric Dickerson for a Day - You get to drive around campus in refurbished late 70's Trans Am and receive a white envelope full of cash. At the end of the evening you get to address the crowd at half time and admonish the coach, the AD, and the Administration for not doing enough to make him look good. Then you get fired at the end of the speech by a guy in an MNF jacket for being the world's most useless sideline reporter(even worse than Lisa Guerro).
4. Every Student gets an Air Horn - Save this for the TCU game.

I am sure there are other great promotions out there to liven up the crowd and increase attendance.

You forgot these:

1. Fireworks Night - sponsored by Black Cat - free Black Cat fireworks given to all entrants to Ford Stadium. First one to set fire to the south end zone gets season tickets. This could coincide with a re-match with Navy sometime.

2. Domino's Pizza Day - the return of The Noid! Have the now retired Mustang Maniac brought out of mothballs for a halftime, no-holds-barred SMACKDOWN. Fans get free Domino's pizza while watching the blood feud at midfield.

3. Sherwood Blount Scavenger Hunt - first person to find the scum in Ford Stadium gets to hang him from the flagpoles in the south end zone. Extra points will be given to whomever can find former Texas Governor Bill Clements, as well.

I know the number one way to increase attendance!

WIN!!!!

Once again Ill post my early early early predictions for next season...

Bowl Eligible? Hmmmm That'd be fun!

Good lord, that's one nutty sunshiner.

oh to be young and foolish!

Young helps but is not a requirement.

-15 minutes before the game, round up the drunkest drunks on the Blvd. Let them race goalline to goalline. Prizes awarded just for staying on your feet. Opposing team helmets may be provided.

-Feel at home day (this one's for visiting fans). When Rice comes here, replace the visitor's section with wooden bleachers. When TCU comes, hand out grass seeds to anyone in purple. When Tulane comes, hire a high school band to come and play their fight song.

-Trading Spaces day. During the game, Paige Davis remodels the visitor's locker room. Periodic updates on the JumboTron.

-Greek day. The gates don't open until midway through the second quarter. Anyone wearing school paraphernalia not admitted. Kegs placed throughout the concourse.

And don't forget - everyone is booted out right after halftime!

With regard to the Drunkard Olympics, shouldn't they get bonus points for soiling themselves. Winning is the best tonic to what ails attendance.

As for the geeks, I mean greeks-
I think that the sorority with the lowest percentage attendance has to host a party for the football team after the season.

The fraternity with the lowest percentage attendance has to trade fraternity jerseys with the members of the computer club and the chess club for rush week.

That ought to strike terror into their hearts.

Speaking of drunks, the Houston game is at John O'Quinn field. If we lose that game, I'll sue.

I guess I should be careful, this thread will likely be taken down.

Nope - just your post.

Now that is a far more sensible policy than wholesale removal of threads.

Other promos that we could have:

Southern Comfort Fill Your Flask for Free Day - Should increase the Greek attendance.

Replace the On Screen Pluckers Wing Race with Drunk Greeks in Chicken Wing Suits.

Coed's Who can eat the Most Snuffers Cheese Fries in a Minute will win a free membership to 24 HR Fitness.

Peruna Pick 'em - Everyone is giving a card with a yard marker like North 34 yard line. Then we let Peruna do his business and the winners get to go to Lone Star Park for free.

Traitor Amnesty Day- Wear another college's gear to the game and get it replaced with an SMU Replica Jersey.
