Oh you're talking about the owner? She is an impressive person. Spent some time talking to me last time I went in to grab some gear and she said to wait for homecoming week because they have something amazing prepared. Customer service over there is top notch in this current era.
Kudos
This is good to hear.
Second to last time we went in, several months ago, young lady asked us if we found what we were looking for.
Seeing that all they had was hoodies and mugs, I expressed my sincere disappointment in the lack of merchandise. I didn’t dress her down, but was sincerely disappointed and expressed as much.
Fast forward to a couple of months ago, and we went in again. Young lady asked us if we found what we were looking for. I can’t express my disappointment. Not mean regressive just an emotional disappointment.
When we walked outside, my wife commented “that was the same young lady as last time.”
I couldn’t see her to recognize her.
My wife said the look on her face acknowledged that she heard me. Kind of felt bad on the drive home.
Hopefully some effort has been put into the merchandising
. . . one day . . . we will be perfect at everything . . . until then, hold onto the rope and keep swinging . . .
This is a topic I really really want to address. But I’ve been negative enough lately.
Let’s just say that this falls 100% on the university’s licensing fee, contract requirements and red tape. Plus some other nuances.
The person in charge is a good person, or so I’m told, but isn’t helpful or doing things to make it easier for producers to use our stuff.
if you go to other towns you will find stores dedicated to to school gear. If enough people are not happy with the offerings on campus then a store dedicated to cajuns gear would work. We moved our youngest to MSU this past weekend and there were several stores that sold nothing but MSU gear. We didn't go to the bookstore or on campus to set her up with some school gear we went to one of those stores that had good selection. And Barnes and Noble run the store there and at USM where my oldest is so the bookstore getting taken over seems to be an extensive thing
The military has a somewhat recent movement to wear RED on Fridays, to support the troops. I know Cajun fans already do this. It means RED: Remember Everyone Deployed. We should do a survey to see if other universities also wear red on Fridays (if their color is red) and which either wear red, wear their color or don't have any plan for fridays.... for the one's that wear other than red on Fridays maybe we could present them with the information and see if they would be willing to support the troops and forego "their color" for just one day a week!
There will be a fan store in the new Cajun Field. Hopefully it’s open year round and not just game day. We went to one when we visited Oregon. It was in their IPF and it was huge.
