Florida State has lost it.
They have simply lost their minds. Behold the FSU "White Out". This is not a test.

Crock-a-shhh...
…eeeiiiitttt
And the article cites “branding” FSU! Are you kidding me…
I know we are not the “original” white-out…but, WE ARE college football’s white-out…
"...goon-a-la-goun-ga...gung-ga-la-gun-ga...he said; there will be no money exchanged..."
A N D
I would have a hard time thinking the students / alum down there aren’t scratching their heads on this…joke of a promotion
"...goon-a-la-goun-ga...gung-ga-la-gun-ga...he said; there will be no money exchanged..."
perhaps the white will make the NCAA think of the cleanliness of thier program . . .
and give them back those wins Bobby was looking for.
There's this part
FSU will offer an official “white-out” t-shirt that is available immediately at the FSU Bookstore, Bill’s Bookstore and Garnet and Gold. Fans from outside Tallahassee can purchase them on Seminoles.com. All proceeds from the sale of the official t-shirt will return to the FSU Athletics Department [to defend Bobby’s wins].
If their White-out shirt looks like a
cross I say we go down a burn the place to the ground.
But, what bigger compliment is there than duplication of what you’ve done.

That is IT
I’m praying to Zug to destroy them once and for all.
Even worse: IT’S THE SAME GOD DAMN DAY AS OUR WHITE OUT!
They really couldn’t have come up with anything better to call it to not make it sound like they’re totally trying to rip off our (kind-of) idea? I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that FSU has to cheat their way into doing something “unique”.
Even worse: IT’S THE SAME GOD DAMN DAY AS OUR WHITE OUT!
I wonder who’s will be better? It’s funny b/c the PSU whiteout will put their gimmick to shame.

This just goes to prove it:
everybody wants to be Penn State!
But there can only be one. WE ARE…

If Bobby can't beat him (JoePa), join him?

Why wouldn’t they do, like, a Maroon (or whatever that color is) Out? When I think FSU colors, white is third or fourth on the list.
Penn Staters belong at Penn State. The problem with a lot of kids is they just don’t know they are Penn Staters yet. -jesse. @ BSD

It doesn't look as good
When you’re the best at what you do, for example, Penn State and the Whiteout, you get a lot of imitators trying to replicate it.

I understand the imitation
but as K-Guns says, why not imitate but keep it “real”.
Will they next start copying ND’s green jerseys? Boise State’s blue field?

Hey, I hear ya
Which leads me to another thought. I was always impressed with Nebraska. I don’t think they’ve ever organized a “Red Out” but Memorial Stadium is always a sea of red (even back before this sort of thing became popular).

I think a "Blackout" in
the Florida heat would be a winner.

read the post on their blog about this
they talk about how it gets freezing cold at night, in the 50’s. They would have never made it past the 1st quarter of the MSU game

Didn't Georgia try to do a Blackout last year
Not a whole lot cooler than Florida, plus I think they got smoked in that game.
I believe that was the Alabama game
and they were murdered, yet no one seemed to realize how bad Georgia sucked last year even then. They though Alabama was just that “good”.
Purdue also tried it I believe…and failed miserably.
45,000 white people trying to execute a 'black out' =
EPIC FAIL.

Will people never learn?
This, from SI’s Stewart Mandel on 10-2-08
“Anything other than the “White Out” isn’t worth it.
If I was a Circuit City employee trying to woo a customer into buying a $2,000 High-definition plasma television, the first thing I would show him is Saturday night’s broadcast of the Penn State-Illinois game. Even seeing it for a third time, it was impossible not to be awed by the visual grandeur of Penn State’s “White Out,” which manages to turn a 110,000-seat stadium one enormous flashbulb. It’s powerful, it’s organized (right down to the block “S” in one corner) and, quite frankly, it’s awesome.
Two words of advice to all the other schools trying to mimic it: Just stop. Seriously."
Thanks for the love, Stewie. You are absotively right.
'People are about as happy as they decide they want to be'
BTW
Someone on the FSU blog thought t-shirts were handed out to the PSU fans, disbelieving that all the fans would actually comply.
All your white outs are belong to us.
"If you let the men in you've got to let the women in. I don't want a bunch of women walking around in my locker room when guys take showers". Joe Paterno
Obviously they've never been to PSU
Do you know the hit in profits they’d take for the game supplying everyone with a free t-shirt. Not even the combined powers of Rockvale Outlets, Berks Hot Dogs, PHEAA, Nationwide Insurance and Pepsi could make that happen.
You underestimate the evil powers of Guido.
As punishment, you’ll be forced to listen to “Zombie Nation” over and over until your mind explodes.

5 years changes a lot...
flashback 2004:
Jay is a villain- Laughed at for designing plays on Xbox, bullied for his large square head, and despised for his recruiting coordinator fiasco that lead to the dark years.
Guido is a hero- he is re-invigorating the masses. Amongst other efforts, he steals Zombie Nation from futbol and the WhiteOut fro the Pheonix Coyotes.
