Post by: Trim on December 05, 2020, 02:25:40 PM

You know, I don't think all goalposts are yellow. You phrase it as if all goalposts are yellow. Maybe they are? I don't know. But here's a fun game. I'll give you ten schools, and you have to summon the powers of your mind's eye, and you have to tell me whether their goalposts are yellow or white.

I think there's an actual answer. I believe the "indestructible" goal posts only come in white, just a guess though.

I’m guessing that the goalposts in each of those places skinny benny posted are yellow.

I may be wrong, but I am the stade guy on this blog, and I don't believe we've ever had goalposts that are yellow instead of white. At least in the Snyder era, which honestly, is the only thing that counts for the purposes of any K-State discussion ever.

We should get translucent goalposts and put LED lights in them. That way, we can light them up whatever color we want them to be that day. Also, after dark in a big game, we can have "technical difficulties" and make the opposing team try to kick a field goal between goal posts they can't see.

just got a couple really great ideas...would only work i think in the SEZ but fans in the SEZ do 1 of 2 things:

1) whiteout. so there would be like no contrast between the goalposts the stands except for the little orange flags on the top. would be super easy to do and maybe what you do is the backs of the shirts are white so the fans all turn around to create the #whiteout when opponents are kicking at the SEZ and then when the cats are kicking at the SEZ they turn back around and shirts are purple or whatever.

2) this would be more complicated but the fans all wear like solid purple shirts but with a 6" wide white vertical stripe and then the fans have to get themselves lined up so that when a kicker is out there instead of seeing what appears to be 2 uprights 18' apart, now you just see a bunch of vertical white lines and you have no way of knowing which ones are the actual uprights. As i'm typing this i'm realizing that the width of the stripe would actually have to be wider than 6" so that it appeared to be 6" wide like an upright, so basically every row going back the width of the stripe would have to get slightly wider to maintain the effect. also would be good for the like 40th row or whatever to have a splash of orange in their shirts so that the kicker cannot easily identify the true uprights by the flags on the top.

this might be my best work yet. we are going to have the homeiest field advantage next year you guys

he's really trying to focus on making tik toks with the boys in the house but he likes the idea and his people think he might be able to move some stuff around to get involved in this project.
