Can the SMU administration be any more stupid!

I can understand that there are some die-hard SMU fans that would like to be burried in such a box, but in the midst of another horrible football season, SMU's PR department should be fired!!!

I suggest everyone just laugh at this and admit that there are people at SMU that just don't get it! (or maybe they really do and are sending us a message)

If anything, this is just another thing for people to laugh at us and not ever take us seriously again!

Enjoy,

This picture of an SMU casket was sent to a bunch of media members by a PR firm representing a company called Eternal Images. These Pony pine boxes really are being sold. Here's an excerpt from the PR release:

Covering college sports, you may already know a Mustang fan or two out there that would make space on their mantle for any kind of Southern Methodist University memorabilia.
Now those fans and dedicated alumni have the opportunity to show their dedication for the school in a way that lasts beyond their lifetime. They can purchase a licensed SOUTHERN METHODIST UNIVERSITY urn or casket.

A company called Eternal Image is offering alumni a new way to show their ultimate passion for their school. Now, graduates can reaffirm their love of their university at the close of their life with Eternal Image's new collegiate line of urns and caskets.

SOUTHERN METHODIST UNIVERSITY is one of the first schools to offer this special line of products, made available through Eternal Image's agreement with Collegiate Licensing Company.

Feel free to come up with your own Death Penalty-related punchline

Maybe they created these as a stealth way to tell the fans that the program is officially dead

I bought a set of head covers for my dad a couple years back at the SMU bookstore.

I heard that they will not be air tight. Apparently they are going to have a small tube-like apparatus that will enable the administration to suck any money that you have left.

I just wonder if Oscar approved this and does he get a royalty for each casket

Tim MacMahon is a useless hack from NTSU

Top golf has them, unfortunately they don't fit a SQ sumo.

But I can't drive with it anymore anyways. I think the tour burner will fit :twisted:

I'm afraid that perception has become a reality!

I know that I have seen these for A&M years ago.

Hopefully not from the inside.
