IF and WHEN (stadium related) ??
« on: May 17, 2017, 09:17:50 PM »
background: the old ball coach is getting to retirement age and when he does retire, it's time to rip his name off the stadium and rename it by securing naming rights ala sprint center, staples center, soldier field, etc. 
for a school as big as kansas state is, it makes no sense not to profit off of the naming rights to the stadium, especially if we win the natty next year.  does/will snyder care?  he claims that he's so humble, so let's make him back up his claim by doing a ceremony where he pulls the first letter "B" off of the wall.  then rich donors can pay to pull the remaining letters i-l-l S-n-y-d-e-r F-a-m-i-l-y down for $10k per letter, boom we just made $150k.

then as a tribute to snyder we put that money into the war chest that we use to pay a new coach.  kind of a "get rid of the old and bring in the new" type of gesture.

thesis: i'd like to get some of the creative types from this message board to start submitting new stadium naming ideas that we then sell to a company for naming rights to the stadium.  i'll route all the legitimate ideas to the Mustang in the ad's office so he has an idea of the type of crazed fans he's dealing with.  #bleedpurple

ideas:
Sandstone Street  (we love the song, let's name our stadium after it!).  then sell Sandstone Street name to Intel for $40M (estimate) for ten years.  Intel Sandstone Street Stadium was born.  or make Intel bid against another big company like Coca Cola.  Coca Cola Sandstone Street Stadium was born.

cannot wait to start getting paid.  yes, i spent many long nights in calvin hall studying business and have always had a business centric focus in my career. 

ideas, thoughts?

whales is right.   why on earth would someone suggest briggs?  we want a company with deep pockets and a lot of media exposure in the business world and on social media snapchat/instagram/facebook/twitter/reddit/others?

i would say koch industries since they're in our back yard but i don't want to politicize the team since we're such a staunch proponent of the military/fort riley (don't cross streams Lol).

i like the face.  can you imagine mark zukerburg in the chairbacks yelling "PURPLE" while the Winklevoss brothers are in the student section
yelling back "POWER", Purple Power Purple Power etc during games would be fire

The Koch brothers have decent bread and it is a really poorly held secret that they are dying to be associated with KSU versus the loseriest school in the state, WSU.  I know a ton of Cat fans think we are better than those socially awkward dirt miners but if we let them come around one in awhile and feel a part of the #Family they would throw some big numbers at naming rights.

IMO LHC LHC Bill Snyder has earned the right to negotiate the deal for the naming rights of the stadium.

 Also, we could make them pronounce their name "male genitals" so we could call it The male genitals.  Would be fun for the youngsters, and we know Bill loves the youngsters

Trump Stadium..   It will not only bring in the dough but it's Patriotic as all get out.  Solid for 8 years too!  :kstatriot: :kstatriot:
Fifteen minutes later, when the Kansas locker room opened its doors to the media, the Jayhawks were still crying. Literally, bawling. All of them. I've never seen anything like it, and I've seen devastated college locker rooms -- after losses in the Final Four, the national championship game -- ever

instead of using boring numbers, sell the naming rights to the sections and rows

This is Smart. The upper deck can be named after an airline because its closer to the air
