Really they should start on the toilet slide in the Canad water park!

no just have them go thru some back tunnels and then come out at the main entrance of the conference center and have them walk south to the main arena....little kids can be lining both sides of the hallway with mini north dakota flags...divert a few (freshies) players to the concourse levels and have them go north to south on the inside concourses (with flags!)...drones showing the walk in the main arena.....takes about 3 for the walkup....pick whatever music but i would do classical (o fortuna or ride of the valyrikes) on the walkup ..when they hit the main arena ....then: everything goes dark for about 15 seconds....que the loud af explosions....then the the team runs onto the field using dropkick murphys, tupac, the killers, metallica music?

your welcome.

I say we take a note out of the 49ers playbook and get the big boom box for the guys walking through the tunnel! This would get the fans going

I would pay BIG BUCKS to see Tommy walking out with a boom box on his shoulder every home game!

[SIOUXFAN97]

Here's my grand walkup scheme with pic...

Bubba and the crew start at the main entrance of the Alerus Conference Center about 5 minutes before game. First walkup song "O Fortuna."  Drones shooting from the front and back....fans lining up both sides of the hallway with Nodak flags.  About a quarter way down divert 4 guys (with flags) and send them up to the north catwalk. Keep Bubba and boys heading south....send a few up stairs or escalator or elevator (with flags) to cover the south catwalk.  Bubba and the rest of the boys (and the guys on the catwalks) wait for the first walkup song to finish (song/walk takes about 3 minutes or so)..  Arena goes dark...boom fireworks and then DMX "X gonna give to you" starts and the spotlights hit the guys on the catwalk (with flags) and the rest of the guys run in from the southeast corner to the Hawk logo at midfield.

your welcome.

one edit on my walk up scheme....when the guys branch off onto the catwalks they trade their flags for huge boom boxes and when the lights come and DMX is blasting they are holding huge boom boxes....

awesome idea......the thing about the "old" walkup....how long of a walk was it?  the 49ers walk a long way with that boom box iirc....my "new" walkup would be great bc of a. time. b. distance....build up the hype!

49ers boom box walkup at steelers.

Do they even make boom boxes anymore?  And whose responsible for the batteries?  Classic foul up in the making.

They definitely make them still, doesn’t have to be the classic boom box either they make portable speakers with lights and everything. Plus they all just plug in the charge so not like its a hard thing for a student manager to be in charge of.

Tommy with a boom box would get the people going!!

so would just the boom boxes come in playing and no PA sounds, perhaps the PA ramps up as the players reach a point on the field

good idea....when the o fortuna or ride of the valkryis ends and the place goes quiet and those few players with boom boxes are on the  4 corners of the catwalk they can hit em with the spotlights and dmx x gonna give it to ya or ruff ryders anthem can be blaring out of those boom boxes before the song starts throughout the arena to catchup....then the rest of the team runs out!

this needs to happen!

if we did ruff ryders anthem could a couple of guys come out first on kawasaki motorcycles (with flags) or 4 wheelers (with flags) after the boom boxes start blaring ruff ryder anthem on the catwalks...."brought you by Revolutions Power Sports (go see Keith Prosser)?

*With flags* is the most important part.

Any player that isn't holding a boom box or driving a motorcycle must have at least 1 flag in hand. Would prefer to have every player running out with 2, but 1 flag per player would suffice as well.

maybe have some pregame bits "fun w/ flags, featuring Dr. Sheldon Cooper & Dr. Amy Farrah Fowler"

How much would we have to pay just to get Dr. Amy for one game.

[jdub27]

Could you imagine the complaining about the coaches and players not being focused and ready when they come out flat in the first quarter because they were distracted by trying to nail this epic performance art?
