The players liked it! what i meant is that for the fan experience it doesn't do much........the "Hawk Walk" the length of the conference center would engage fans and create a little buzz in the main arena for a 3-4 minutes. #ruffryders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why don’t a few of you email the marketing team at UND Athletics and see what they come up with or for suggestions? Let the marketing interns get creative, use their minds, then escalate it to their subordinates. Rather see/try something new than nothing or what they’re currently doing. 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe include the bank or cheerleaders? Bet that would get a great reaction. But maybe do it a little earlier so the the players can focus on the game. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You and a few other cotton tops keep trying to bring up this point... I promise you, having them do any sort of pregame walk with a camera showing them on the big screen with hype music going will do nothing negative to their focus for the game. If anything, it will get them more hyped up for the game and actually play better. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Significant difference between a tunnel walk and having the team running around the Conference Center and up in the stands. One is logical. The other, well not so much. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
