What's on the back of 1 & 2?
I believe #1 fan experience in the Big XII is one of them. Is the other one Manhattan, KS #1 college town in US? Either way, they're very KSTATEO.

TY :cheers:

A friend sent me something that had to deal with the naming has to deal with Shamrock Investing in Overland Park, apparently the CEO paid to put their company’s name on it.

I know.  The end result is there is now a Shamrock Zone in the stadium.

It doesn't.  That's a made-up thing that's said on the radio for so long as its paid for.  The Shamrock Zone is going to be an irl physical area of the stadium.

When no fans are allowed after week 1, do we fire up the tarp printer for sponsors?

I don’t know but naming that thing The Shamrock Zone is making this Canadian Friend want to get FatLP back into the studio to fire up another verse of K-State0. My God.  Lol @ us. We were so close.

Does anyone know if they are using tarps in their new stadium?

Between the Shamrock Zone and the Ice video boards or whatever they are, our stade now has a distinct Shamrock Shake vibe to it.

There isn't really any other place to use ribbon boards. They have been using the bottom of the first two ice boards as ribbon boards, I'm assuming they'll do the same thing with the next to. Same with the boards at the bottom of the SEZ.

and the beat drops and everybody loses their crap

I'll be honest, I always thought they's either use the concrete face of the club seating in WSC for the ribbon board. They could alternatively add it to the loge box level (one more up) as that line goes the entire length of WSC. That being said, they clearly didn't intend to do it since they never did it, and had a golden opportunity to do so.



FWIW I would have moved the names in the ring of honor on the east side to put the ribbon boards there as well, and find another local for those names, the aforementioned loge box level on WSC would be my choice.

If they had done that they would've had ribbon boards all at roughly the same level on the east side, west side, and now south side. You could have even added it to the bottom of that weird balcony on Vanier, and boom, practically 360 ribbon board.
