dj_hoime Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Thy look about the same as the sioux crew shirts so i hope the color will match! but even if you order 60 of them they are still 8.50. Hey, to put one on each seat we need to raise about $55,000. Lets do it! I like those shirts alot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiSioux Posted August 15, 2007 Author Share Posted August 15, 2007 Wow... less than I expected from the Athletic Department: Jennifer, Thank you for the inquery on this "Green Out" idea. This is an idea that has been brought up many times in meetings. We did have a version of this last year with the glow sticks. At the time we believed that would be a stepping stone to future events. We are still looking into possible promotions for this upcoming season, but at this point have nothing in stone. As far as a "Green Out" event, there is very little that the Athletic Department can do to help create the event. We can help support this event, but that is about as far as we can go. I wish you all the luck in creating this "Green Out" weekend. Paul Frushour UND Athletics Oh well... it's still going to happen either way.

AZSIOUX Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Wow... less than I expected from the Athletic Department: Oh well... it's still going to happen either way. screw that email, seriously, it will happen either way, keep up the work wisioux!! wish i lived back there for something like this to help out, hope others are assisting you, if im back for that series you can bet everyone im with will have the green have shirts available to buy if possible of course, spreading the word is the best idea as many many sioux fans have something green in the closet so tat will help a lot, ads, flyers and so forth until that weekend comes up then push heavy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willistonsioux Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 I don't think it's going to cost 8.50 a shirt. If you buy them in bulk they will be cheaper. Does anyone know one of the Engelstad's maybe one of them will donate money. If you don't get shirts I personally think it won't work. Ask Barnes and Noble about getting shirts in bulk. I bet they have some catalogs or something to help out with. Just some ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diggler Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Why the hell do they need a stepping stone to a "Green Out" or anything like it? Other schools manage to do it, UND can manage it too. It's really not that complicated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fetch Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 diggler are you thinking about the kinda white out's you & rollergirl had Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big A HG Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Using the site, I came up with $4.77 per shirt, for a total of $52,470 total. That's A LOT of money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnt Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Have they decided on the gopher series for this? Based on how many single tickets went to gopher fans, it may look less spectacular with all the maroon & gold littered all over the place. Regardless, my friend was wondering if someone could post a flyer or something about the promotion so she can print it and give it to friends.

Ray77 Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Wow... less than I expected from the Athletic Department: Oh well... it's still going to happen either way. Wow, that seems like a VERY lame reply! "Great idea...sorry, we aren't going to help you get this off the ground because our glow stick promotion was lame...good luck." Seriously...that's all the effort they'll put into this? I hope they don't take any credit when WiSioux has done all the work and pulls this off!

MafiaMan Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Might I suggest making sure that local radio stations are contacted? DJ's can mention starting on Monday's drive to work or during the day after commercials for the games that it's the Green-With-Envy weekend. Perhaps even Pat Sweeney and other TV stations could drop the bit during the sports that week. 200 people on facebook isn't going to cut it.

WiSioux Posted August 16, 2007 Author Share Posted August 16, 2007 Love the "Green With Envy" name!!! As far as sign, we are working on that right now... we're trying to make some sort of "logo" or something we can consistantly use on all signs that we'll post and hand out. Hopefully we should have that within the next week. Keep the suggestions/ideas coming! And I'll let ya know when we need help hanging up signs!

Would it be possible to tell the ppl who make the commercials for the games to sneak it in there as well? Pat Sweeney could mention it every game on the tv.They sometimes need a filler in between play. And "Green with envy" is good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCM Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Love the "Green With Envy" name!!! I liked it, too, until I thought about it some more. Wouldn't that imply that Sioux fans are green with envy? Shouldn't other college hockey programs and their fans be envious of us? Maybe "The Envy of Green" would be a more accurate theme or title. I'm just thinking out loud here and maybe I'm thinking too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackheart Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Here's a couple ideas for the shirts... Welcome Donny Crap-Sack Gofers=Mankato Rejects and my personal favorite...Kill Whitey (I wonder if Myles Brand would wear one) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just thinking out loud here and maybe I'm thinking too much. That's a very good point... and I'm very glad you brought that up. Green With Envy makes it seem as though we are jealous of the Gophers, and that is not the case. Perhaps Envy the Green would be a better name... Thanks for mentioning it!

Snake Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 i hear ya but im assuming many sioux fans dont have a shirt in that color green, a few wouldnt be bad but kelly green and forest green seem to be the norm anyways, not the highlighter green...i dont really consider that example a green anyone would wear or even have in the closet, no fence Skip the forest green - you don't want to blend in with the seats!

AZSIOUX Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Skip the forest green - you don't want to blend in with the seats! i agree, kelly greeen for sure, just saying if thats all you have in the closet thats fine....this will be cool when it happens with no help for the school Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
