Typical AD looking to make a buck anyway they can

 

[UConnChapette]

Right now there are more Michigan fans in The Rent than UConn fans. Obviously many season ticket holders sold their tickets, probably at a very high markup. Just embarrassing.

Sigh.

Global Spectrum runs the concessions.

Don't let facts get in the way of a good meme.

The President of Global Spectrum should be castrated.

That's inaccurate.

Nobody believes me, but I swear I saw a Syracuse shirt for sale in the co-op in 2006.

Fair point.

@McMurphyESPN It is 4 hats and 1-2 tees out of 100 plus products. A nice service to our visitors and a weak attempt by you to seem clever

Maryland merchandise was being sold at last week game too,

Well then that's just smart marketing!

 

[Calhoun's Court]

They should have sold a Gameday shirt with the UCONN and Michigan helmet on it with the date and venue of todays game(like they did at Notre Dame). They would have sold a ton of them.

I'm surprised there wasn't more outrage about this. Aren't the merchandise stands extensions of the Co-op ?

I was pretty disgusted seeing them selling Michigan gear. I wonder how many they really sold ? Most road teams fans already have their gear on before they get to the stadium.

And they sold Maryland shirts too ? Wonder if they will have USF stuff...

well, some of us like something nice and soft wiping our tushies after taking a big beer and bratwurst during half-time.

no

Well if Kyle Muncy commented on it, UConn must have had some input into it.

Ah, so mystery solved. ZLS is just another McMurphy snark butt boy. Got it.

Not sure why you think it's a big deal?

@UConnTrademark wasn't attempt to be clever, UConn alum sent me photo. Did you sell Towson gear 1st game? Never seen that at college game

@McMurphyESPN We sold Maryland gear last week We did it as a test for our two non conf opps with easy to source merch.

 

[Waquoit]

It's lame. This "test" should be tossed out with the PA guy doing the UCONN cheer.

It was actually pretty good with a packed enthusiastic house on Saturday. It's the games where there's 35k on their cellphones when it's appalling.

 

[coachcap]

I don't see what all the fuss is. I saw the Michigan gear being sold. Generic Yellow Tees with a generic type face of Michigan across the breast. Generic Navy Blue baseball cap with a WHITE capital M across the front. If I was a Wolverine fan, I'd be in stitches about the attempt & tell the booth vender to go fish.

Ha! Nobody in 216 could get cell reception. Good sleuthing attempt, though...I hear Tom Osborne is looking for someone who likes such investigative efforts!

Funny about the cell reception...my phone kept overheating and shutting off during the game. Was it because of 42k people on top of me getting texts saying "is this really happening???"
