[QUOTE="chris975d, post: 620405, member: 3766"] There is a big difference in a Tech fan and a Clemson (or UGA or Alabama) fan. Those teams are "cool" to be a fan of. You don't catch much hell wearing Clemson colors, same as you don't with UGA. The fan bases are huge. Just watch ANY Clemson or UGA game when they don't play in their own stadium. They make away games into home games basically. We can't fill a 60K stadium, and they have people they have to turn away. It's much more widely accepted and quite frankly popluar to wear those colors. There's excitement about them. Heck, even a good portion of our own students don't give one rip about sports. If we become more popular, I think our traditions will start to become so as well. But we are not a marketing person's dream in terms of market size in any stretch of the imagination. If navy blue GT stuff sells better than gold (and it does, I've seen it myself), well...that's what the companies are going to make. There's nothing you or I can do about that. [/QUOTE]
