Purdue Football Groupon?

[New Pal Boiler]

Ross Ade is going to be a ghost town the rest of the season if Burke doesn't start thinking outside the box. Since marketing and thinking outside the box aren't his strong suits, I thought I would help, since recruits aren't going to be impressed by the "echo zone" they will experience at the rest of our home games. Here we go:

1. Groupon for $20 for 4 tickets.

2. Sell tickets at Lafayette area schools for $5 each, and run shuttles to pick kids up on Saturdays

3. Radio station ticket giveaways in Indy and Lafayette - first caller who can tell us one of Purdue's colors, first caller who can identify the university that John Purdue founded, etc.

Any other ideas?

Why not bus in prisoners from the State Prison...as punishment.
Guard: "if you guys don't settle down you'll be on that bus to West Lafayette Saturday and I'll have to be honest...some guys never make it back...and those that do are scarred for life"

Maybe bus over some folks from that mental hospital over in Logansport. They might actually buy what Captain Morgan is selling.

Another idea to improve the game day experience in Ross Ade- my teenage son mentioned this while we were nodding off in the stands yesterday: show a different game on the jumbotron, as in, a real football game.

Or episodes of sponge bob, or maybe run those trivia games that they have at b-dubs.

I vote for trivia games

Well they run those goofy movie clips to fire people up (Jaws, Animal House, etc) - perhaps just run the whole movie? We already have popcorn (unless the concession stand runs out).

Free h

Free hotdogs and beer/soda with a ticket. Should we accidentally win next home game is free!

During "Shout" the folks in the stands should replace the "ou" with an "i" and yell it really, really loud.

The answers Charcoal Gray and Neon Yellow will be accepted as well.

Idea #5 - all you can eat free popcorn. But before captain Morgan freaks out about the cost, I forecast a 300% increase in soda sales, due to the extra salt on the popcorn, allowing us to clear out the 300,000 Leon Burtnett souvenir cups that are still in inventory.

What about making the prisoners play the football game instead of our players? I'm sure we could manage that, ha ha.

The 8th Amendment states no" Cruel or Unusual Punishment" or it'd be a damn good idea.
