Open letter to the YSU Football Marketing Department:
I have a question...what is the budget for the Marketing Department...$.06? I cannot believe that with the number one team in FCS coming to our place with a fan base that travels, we cannot come up with some kind of marketing plan for that NDSU game or even the last game of the season that is for all the marbles. It is very enjoyable watching PSU White Outs or Baylor Black Outs where every fan and even the team is dressed for the occasion. What to we get...4 free tickets for anyone who served in the military? Believe me, I love the military just as much as the next guy and they deserve what they can get, but that is what you have to offer? Really? That game should have been marketed all over the place, newspaper, T.V., Internet, Radio, email blasts, etc...Our tailgate crew could not believe it...and where is the marketing director, driving around in a John Deere thing in the tailgate lot helping people set up tents? The most marketing we do is throwing free footballs into the stands..while the same Minnie the Moocher is playing on the "NoVision" Screen and everyone is trying to catch a football...Please, come up with a plan for the last game of the season and God forbid a home playoff game...jeez, what is next, free tickets to anyone who is breathing? Start the campaign NOW for SDST and get moving!!!
