I'd buy one right now to honor my late wife (Class of '97) and for both of us (I'm class of '00), then my youngest is a new freshman today.
People can honor their parents. All kinds of reasons to buy one.

I'd buy one.
Stockstill's Reign of Error can't last forever (can it?) and when we actually get good again, i'd be happy to have me and the wife's name on one (class of '05 and '06).
Speaking of concessions, and I know this will never ever fly, but I think it's a great idea.
What about a picnic game? Kind of like nascar rules - allow folks to bring in a carry cooler with snacks or sandwiches or whatever.
I know we don't want to miss out on concession revenue, but what if you sold, say, a picnic-ticket for $20 bucks on top of the regular ticket.
I've very likely not to buy $20 bucks worth of concessions (in fact, it ain't happening), but if you told me I could pay $20 bucks and bring in a couple of cokes and a Publix Sub and a bag of chips, I'd do it every game.
I honestly think you'd come out ahead rather than trying to convince people to buy stale nachos and flat pepsi's for an arm and a leg.

I like it... Could allow everyone to bring in beer too, along lines of your picnic ticket. I don't know if this legal, just an idea.
Didn't realize the concessions price differences from venue to venue. With higher priced tickets it makes sense to get a reprieve. Good info.
Yes we have! That's definitely something we are going to explore during the Build Blue Campaign.
Good... gives people an emotional investment... May want to bring their kids and grandkids back to show it off. Who knows...
Indeed. Not much different than price of a regular Yeti. I'd pay that for an MT one, if it stayed a Yeti and not some knockoff.
And didn't have the stupid pegasus on it....hint hint to those in charge.
Yep, except for the 09 season, 8 has been the ceiling, with no conference championships to show for that, and almost always a loss to wku to show as well..
Our administration has latched on to, spent way too much money on & has refused to move away from this thing our fanbase has universally hated. Get the Pegasus out of the logo.
Our block MT is just fine with that awful thing. Talk about a happy fanbase if it disappeared from midfield or our helmets.
Wait, are we talking about the logo, or the coach?
I don't like either. Apparently we are going to have to wait for a complete change in leadership, from the Board down to the football coach, to have any change at all in either. They could throw a bone to the fans, At least remove the pegasus from the helmets and the 'xxxxx xxxxxxxxxx" from the Press Box.
It's been over 2 decades, I miss James Walker and his vision.
I agree, but removing the name overall will be bigger than athletic department marketing.
I think dropping …SU and Pegasus from athletic branding is a no brainer.
I asked Hans why we do not have Yeti merchandise. You can find almost any school on Yeti's website, but not MT. That's unfortunate. I know there are a lot of other brands, but I don't want them. I want Yeti.
100% agree with this. We can work wiht the Pegasus. Not the SU.
That's also why i don't want a "MT" and then "SU" chant in the stadium. Maybe you can do "Middle" and "Tennessee"
I always remain silent during the 'xx' portion of that. If there was a change away from that instead, then maybe 'go blue' could be the last half of that chant.
Yup. It goes
M T S U
MTSU MTSU
Go Raiders Go
So I go
M T M T
Middle Tennessee Middle Tennesee
Go Raiders Go
Fits right in.
Didn't realize that! Will look into it.
Ya. I know Chelsea was looking into it. There was a reason why we couldn't, but we should be able to figure out what we need to do to make it happen. If it's quantity, I bet we can get that. They do custom work.
Why doesn’t MT put out Hype videos for the season? I haven’t seen one since I became a fan.
I'm afraid to even imagine what something like that would look like.
