AZSIOUX Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Every game should be a green out without even being planned or promoted. That is our color. easier said than done would be a cool tradition to start though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BudLight Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Every game should be a green out without even being planned or promoted. That is our color. Green doesn't work. All the seats are green. Everyone in the crowd would blend in with the seats, and that's kinda the opposite of what we want right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The society surrounding this arena is too egotistic and lazy to perform unity like this. Im betting they could hand out shirts and 40% of the people wouldn't put them on. And I totally agree that green and/or white (and black, hence black jerseys and sioux gear) should be seen every night in the arena but thats just us few knowledgeable people that understand this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZSIOUX Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 OK, the ralph wants you to wear white for the white out weekend vs the gophers. just saw a ryan duncan ad on this page upper right to buy the white shirt. they didnt need to put the gopher logo on it. stupid idea of course. guess in these tough economy times you wont see white shirts being given out for something like this. too bad. click on upper right ad and on top of buying it they are charging 18.23 for the shirt. come on. when will they get it. make a cheap white shirt with the sioux logo on it, you dont need the gopher logo by any means and charge 5.00 to 10.00 and have thousands of them for the series. fans better just get the whites out of your closet and try to make it happen i guess. http://www.siouxshop.com/ots-und-v-mn-l-s-...1-pr-19060.html but...............at least there is an effort this year with this ad duncan did and the shirts. thats a good sign!

luapsided Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Time to get the black out of the closet again!

AZSIOUX Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 from brad http://www.areavoices.com/undhockey/ Duncan, Sioux hope for white out UND and captain Ryan Duncan are asking for a white out for the series against Minnesota on Jan. 9-10. "We have seen arenas where all of the fans wear the same color and it looks really impressive," Duncan said. "I've been to Calgary Flames games in which they created a 'C of Red.' Every person joined in and wore red. We would like to have the same feel here with everyone wearing white. "Every time we face the Gophers, the arena turns into a playoff-type atmosphere. It's a huge advantage to be at our home rink the only time we face them during the season. This will only help unite the fans and make it tougher for the opponent." Sioux shop is making white t-shirts specifically for the Sioux-Gophers series. Ralph Engelstad Arena promoted a white out last year for the Sioux-Gophers series and it didn't come close to working. Should be interesting to see if it picks up this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZSIOUX Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I think even an advertisment on the radio for the next month would help also for sure. do this and its free call into every talk radio show sports or nonsports and when they put you on air then just read quickly that there is a whiteout jan 9-10 for the games flood the radio waves tell them MR HOBEY BAKER said to wear white and ill make it a true whiteout and use actual whiteout to remove the umTC logo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farce poobah Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I think that Chuck-a-Puck should be replaced with Chuck-a-Gopher (plastic) for this weekend too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I understand the idea behind it and all...but I don't think it is necessary. Just adds to their arrogance. We have enough support for that serieas and all others without the white out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZSIOUX Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Bad weekend to do it though, too many Gophers will be in the house. not more than there usaully is which isnt earth shattering at all. dont worry, we will throw real gophers on the ice and also you and your fellow gopher fans as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopherguy33 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Reeks of desperation and fear. Just kidding. I was looking forward to it last year and it didn't work. Maybe this year, It would be cool to see it live. A weekend with the students back would make more sense. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that the general public is much more apt to do this than the students are. That being said, having Duncan announce that they want this to happen will likely make it better than it was last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissSioux85 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 FYI, the T-shirts are being sold at the UND Memorial Union (1st floor) for $12. Save a little money on tax! Available sizes: S-XXL. The shirts are made of a thicker cotton and shouldn't shrink. The back is plain, no sponsors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Available sizes: S-XXL. The shirts are made of a thicker cotton and shouldn't shrink. The back is plain, no sponsors. Its to bad they didn't start selling them a little earlier, that would have maybe encouraged a few more students to come back early for the game. Not a bad price though, for a quality shirt.

Only complaint--and I DO have one--the front should be plain with all the jazz on the back side. Is there no possibility that Gophers fans will buy them, too, or refuse to do so, just being their usually snarky selves? Oh well, their loss. Literally, twice, I hope.

I think that is why the design is the way that it is... so that it isn't really a t-shirt for only one team. That ways fans of either team can participate. It's always a great series, why not get a cheap shirt to remember it by? I'm glad that the athletic department is attempting to do something. As much as we tried last year it was just too hard with little to no support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaksHomey Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Personally, I would never wear a shirt with that M on it, and I'm a little disappointed to see Duncan do it. Best of luck anyways. Hopefully it goes better than the glow sticks at the wisconsin game a few years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
