Greenbackers Welcome SMU'ers 2 Fouts/We'll Talk Turning The Damn Thing Around With Ya
Posted: Tue Sep 02, 2003 8:08 pmCome on all you Mustangers, leave Lubbock behind in the red west Texas dust where it belongs! It's history! Yall will be good again soon enough (now that is coming from a most un-biased bystander, mind you)! 
Hell, we lost our last one with TTech ourselves. I'm was tired of seeing all that black and red to be honest! 
Seriously....we Mean Greeners want to meet many of Mustangs alums/fans on this board and beyond at our new revised version of Fout Field with our new million dollar Daktronics scoreboard/video screen which makes its debut and...
...when is the last time you visited a stadium where the scoreboard was worth more than the stadium!?! (Of course, if you come, and look across Denton's version of Stemmons Fwy. west of the Radisson across from Fouts, you'll see a whole bunch of bulldozers starting the first part of our own Big Project to eventually make venerable Fouts Field a forgotten memory.
Seriously, I know I've heard Coach Fry in year's past say how many great friends he had (and still has) at SMU. Many of you know it was just (basically) a small committee who chose not to renew his contract with him in the first place. But like the old song, that was yesterday, and yesterday's gone.
I know you all have your own special plans to honor Coach Fry at Ford in November, but knowing Hayden Fry, he would be tickled "red and blue" to see just that, a whole lot of SMU Red and Blue at Fouts this Saturday evening, too. Heck, if nothing else, come help your SMU football coaches scout the Bears as you know they will be there full force this Saturday evening in preparation for yalls game with Baylor the next week in Waco.
Some of you have never been to Denton or at least its been a while (alright now, cut the wise cracks I can hear coming on that one) BUT I have driven from Dallas' LBJ @ I35-E to the Denton city limits sign in 35 minutes. Guess that sorta' tells you we are not exactly in Southern Oklahoma, eh?
'STANGS INVITATION TO: A pre-game BBQ (hell, its free) behind the east stadium by the football practice field--easy to find. Please do wear you SMU gear. Coach Fry is supposed to come by and visit all of us from Baylor, UNT and hopefully many of you SMU'ers from this board who will be in that one general tailgate area behind the east side of Fouts. All you have to bring is your love for intercollegiate football and an empty stomach. We'll provide the rest!
Game starts at 7:00 pm, but you'll see lots of green/gold and green/white 2-3 hours before the kick-off. Expecting 25-30,000 so as they say: Come Early--Stay Late.
Truly, Coach Fry and our group would love to have yall come out for this special evening/especially all of you from PonyFans.com and that other SMU board!
