Time to take over NYC!

[Bonehead]

UConn BB has ruled NYC for a while now - lets get NYC buzzing about UConn FB!

6 of us will be respresnting at the 9/11 Memorial earlier Saturday am - off to the game - and then show off the UConn colors in Times Square afterwards.

Lets make sure that U-C-O-N-N is strong!!

 

[tiger8mush]

will be at least 6 in my group sporting UCONN blue as well. Hopefully we can fill some seats and put on a good show for the locals! Not to mention a W to keep bowl hopes/fantasies alive

 

[DoctorWho85]

I wish I was going to the game. But I think UConn fans will show up strong after the last two weeks. Especially with easy access with the train/subway.

 

[Dooley]

I will give $100 to the guy or gal who hangs a UCONN banner over the "Syracuse" on that ridiculous "New York's College Team" ad they have out there in left field. I'd like it to read "{UCONN logo} New York's College Team".

Thank you.

You got my attention - do you know the policy on signs at Yankee Stadium??

I specifically requested seats over the banner. I did not get them.

Is that true??

It doesn't mean u can't walk up there and do an adjustment.

While we're on the Yankee Stadium Policy, are we going to be allowed to bring food in like they allow for Yankee baseball games?

Ryan the tailgate king says YES!

I do not know. I should also say that I do not want or condone anyone getting themselves arrested.

But the hundo is still out there???!!!

 

[thatguyed]

There is still room in Ryan's tailgate if anyone is interested. Good sounding food, not just burgers and dogs.

 

[Dooley]

But the hundo is still out there???!!!

Yes sir. If this is developing into a contest, here are my rules:

1. UCONN logo must fully cover anything "Syracuse"
2. Must be hung or remain hanging during the game so that we can all see it (and enjoy it)
3. A picture of it must be taken to document this (would love to have it posted here)
4. First sign that meets these above requirements gets paid
Disclaimer: Do not get yourself arrested. If security tells you "no", then no means no. I'm not bailing anyone out of jail. I'm paying for a UCONN sign to be hung over "Syracuse" of the left field banner ad inside the stadium. No property destruction or any other criminal activity.

Hanging for the whole game!?!? I would need to guard it like HM1!!
I am trying to find a picture of existing signage to obtain dimensions. Not easy.
I am thinking that Yankee personnel will remove once hung.
Looking for insight to represent...

This is a great idea FYI!!!

My wife is TOTALLY against it - makes me want to do it even more!!

Not the whole game, just part of it. But during the game. That way more than the 100 or so people inside the stadium during pre-game warmups will see it, learn it, live it, love it.

I'll be at the Army Association of Graduates Tailgate (wife is an '03 West Point grad) and I'll be sporting all of my UCONN gear. Then I'm sitting in the heart of the Army section with all of her West Point friends. I really, REALLY, hope UCONN wins this game. I don't want to think of the misery, despair, and ridicule I will have to endure for years to come if UCONN loses this game.

I'll match the $100 for the winner of Dooley's choosing.

I need dimensions!!!

 

[CTMike]

Not trying to dissuade you Bonehead - but if any of our student Yarders are eyeing this thread, $200 goes a long way in beer... Just sayin!! #HuskyUp

I hear ya CTMike -

We need a picture of the existing signage to try to come up with dimensions? I couldnt find one -

I would rather a student step up to the plate on this however if I need to do and can pull it off I will! It is needed for UConn and Im sure it will end up having some legs - great idea Dooley!

Where is HFD when needed - TCF??

Good to go except they will remove it once noticed since it obstructs advertising.

I'm bringing a flag and some string to drape over if I get the chance anyway.

The above BOLDED is the issue...

I leave it to you my friend to do the 'adjustement' - its worth 2 Bills - Dooley and CTMike have stepped up!
Make sure your BY name is somewhere on there to get credit!!

 

[CTMike]

To quote JC, it's doable... Just need someone to step up and make it happen!!

 

[CTMike]

This is the scourge that needs eradicating...
