How BIG Could this Week Be?

Don't forget the king of bad-corporate-endorsed stadiums......

:::Drumroll::: Enron Field! It's where the Houston Astros play, but it is now Tropicanna Park.

I'd also like to mention the coolest sounding stadium names with Petco Park (SD Padres) and Monster Park (SF 49ers, formerly Candlestick Park). I'd also like to thank all of the donors to the university and the football program for their generous contributions. Thats all for now, Jeff

I've had the sincere pleasure of attending 2 BG functions at Bob and Karen Sebo's home in Salem and they are truly genuine people. Bob LOVES Falcon football and has done so much for the program. And he is very down to earth.

As far as the weather Sat, we'll be there no matter what. Looking forward to tailgating and we'll try to arrive by noon. My bud Mark will be with us and he is a Ball State grad...but he's cool about it. I think he's a much bigger Notre Dame fan than Ball State.

BEAT BALL STATE!!!!

The Mrs will be there with our nephew as well as my Dad. They will be under the big tree where the team gets off the busses. I unfortunatly will be at work waiting for updates.

2-We could hear an official announcement about the Student Athletic Center. Previous posts on this site have said that a large donation (3.5 million?) has been offered, that it involves naming rights, and that we can expect an announcement this week.

Can it be any more official than the latest Falcon Club Newsletter? That was pretty detailed.

Anybody got a spare $100,000 to donate? You can get naming rights on various things in the SAC.

I was going to shoot for a drinking fountain for $100.

Door handle for $50?

I'll bet a urinal handle would be really cheap!

For $3.5M, they'd better be going with the "hands free" electronic urinals.

Anyone have anything more on whether the SAC will include additional seating to replace the removal of the temporary bleachers in the North endzone?

Also, I hope the naming rights are only for the SAC. I DON'T WANT US TO EVER CHANGE THE NAME "DOYT PERRY STADIUM" FOR ANY AMOUNT OF MONEY!!

Any amount?

I love the name of our stadium, but... any amount?

For $3, I'll let you call me anything you want. Maybe I should set up up a booth at the game. "Come one, come all. Call me names for $3 a pop"

Doyt Perry Field at 5/3 Stadium could be in our future.
We could also divide the field into zones. The Pepsi endzones. The Aeropostale red zones. The Meijer midfield. We could raise some serious coin.

Maybe AZZ.com could raise the funds needed to sponsor a pylon in an endzone corner....
