    That was only a virtual "nothing to see here" do something else game.

    It wasn't intended to be taken literally.

    I hate to see our area and state decline in population but that's the hard truth. Some people can chose to believe it or not.

You could flash scores from around the country and sunbelt. Since we can’t get them on our phones. Just because we never play tech, people would still enjoy announcing when they lose on the PA. Dr maggard interview bits would also Interest some fans. Remember not everyone there gets info on this board or listens to sports radio. We could be feeding people a lot of good information on the video board and filling 3 minutes of dead time with terrible music playing. Coordinate these videos during commercials with the band. Let them play songs and maybe have sing alongs with the lyrics on the video board. Also, why not a kiss cam, flex your muscle, or other funny things women and children like at games. I don’t know the last time I saw a crowd shot on the video board.
    You have some very good ideas here, I hope those in charge read this and work on it. It is simple, it gets your focus, it can advertise, it can entertain. These are all things that help.

    App St is 2-3 but have a sell out for a Tuesday night game.
    Their fans are not there for gimmicks. They're packing the stadium on a Tuesday night because they love their team and their university.

    . . . this sounds so much like an over exaggeration it should probably be given no significance . . .
