AM Posted November 21, 2005 Group: Member Topic Count: 22 Content Count: 90 Reputation: 0 Days Won: 0 Joined: 11/20/2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I certainly appreciate the Glasers and the BUCS opening their home to our football team and fans! However, this is not our home! I am disguisted the way I was treated before entering the Cincinnati game. I walked through the line with my USF car flag and TSA told me to break it and even went as far as grabbing it out of my hands to show me how to break it! I got very angry and had to be calmed down...This will never be our stadium! We may play in it, we may fill it up with our fans, but all in all it is not our stadium. We pay to use it, and can't even get some **** USF logos in the place! It is certainly a beautiful facility to be in, but it's not ours! Most importantly, it will never be ours and we will never see a field painted, a stadium decorated, a true college atmosphere until we get our own stadium!

Paint the end zones with gold color, paint the Big East logos on the 30s or wherever they usually do that sort of thing. Paint USF in one end zone, Bulls in the other. Raise a Big East flag on the Pirate Ship and put bull horns on the skull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
