nice! Can that be seen from CenTex?
FWIW, LB will have that on the tower in two years as we not only make the NCAA tourney, but win in the first round. Mark it down.

Unfortunately I didn't catch a photo of it due to my phone being dead, however after doing some research, this isn't the first time the tower has read SMU on the lights... also they had the nerve to also put TCU on there at one point in purple and white.... :evil: I think LB is making monster waves though with the BBall program, so I would not be shocked if your statement turned out to be true...

Also another building down by the new park opening over Stemmons had SMU in lights. Being downtown Dallas last night was way cool for Mustang fans. 'SMU is Dallas' is a great PR effort this year and one that needs to be continued.

Well what I mean is that tower should light up Red and an alum should never put TCU wins ever on it

While I don't like seeing TCU on ANY building structure, I do believe that on that particular night reunion tower was alternating SMU to TCU as a form of advertisement for the SMU vs. TCU game.

We are so amazingly disfunctional. Take any topic, any topic, and turn it into a reason to [deleted] and whine. Incredible.

The Reunion Tower thing was absolutely sweet. The convention center hotel also had a running Mustang.

Reunion showed "TCU" after they beat Baylor and we got skunked by Tulane.

Mr. Hunt, please keep "TCU" off Dallas' main landmark.
