This is a very novel and unique way of trying to motivate the city to become involved. What did it cost stAte and the Mayors office? Almost nothing I would imagine. Email blast from the City and it gets printed in the paper. Cheap, easy, and possibly effective advertising for the game.
This game IS on ESPNU, which is National Television. I think EVERY effort should be taken to make sure we have as many butts in the seats as possible.
Why not ask the Mayor to do this and then give Free tickets to City of Boca employees? The LAST thing we want is for our stadium to look as empty as FIU's did for thier game.
This. We have a week and a half to get the city and local population to get interested in this game. Lets give the endzone seats, both students and fans those rally towels they did not give out for the previous game. Have the school send out some student ambassadors to drop off sign up sheets for free tickets to the game at the local government offices. Not the main government building but the parks and recs dept., the maintenance dept., the mechanics, and police, and fire, and lifeguards. We're not going to sell out the game necessarily, so towards the end of next week they can start giving out the tickets that we're not selling. The stadium will be fully staffed no matter what so we may as well use the tickets instead of sitting on them.
+1
and maybe they will spend money on food and drinks once inside the stadium.

IMHO… Saturday games only. Unless they pay nicely. If they pay, I understand. FYI, we need money.
If we are on natinoal tv then Friday it is….if not Saturday. Wagoner should never have been played on Friday. Do we get to tell Alabama when we want to play the game or do they tell us what time to be at the stadium? How Angelos let Wagoner tell us we had to play on Friday I will never understand.

I am getting a little frustrated at Mr. Chun who was supposed to come out with this marketing strategy he has been saying they been working on. As fans we would like to know what the plan is.
Apparently it's a secret.
I did feel like we had a good turnout for the exhibition game vs Lynn on the west (paid) stands… not sure if that's their doing or not but I'll give them credit for anyway.
However, this whole "not doing an organized red-out for the Shula Bowl" thing is absolutely unacceptable.

For the red out, I'd like to see the students get it together. I'll be there in red, as will everyone I speak to about the game but this is a great opportunity to show that our student population actually cares and can mobilize and get something done.
