Expand They’ve been contacted. They just need to do it. Tunnel walk with appropriate audio (Sirius, Chicago Bulls theme is my suggestion) +/- helmet (as I truly see helmet as optional) is what is needed. How they want to go about logistics and details is ultimately up to UND in-game / productions staff. 1 Quote

Expand I probably wouldn't even post to be honest. My buddies give me crap for "blogging" on here as it is, and in real life I'm kind of embarrassed to ever admit I do. It would be interesting to know who some of the people are behind the screen names... would probably be some interesting surprises. For example John Goodman (actor) posts on the Missouri State message boards I believe. I'd love to know the burner accounts for people in the athletic department. 1 Quote
