[QUOTE="ToddM, post: 12226, member: 446"] I must be missing it guys. I just don't see a media blitz being conducted by Tech. Rise up is on TV a lot, in the form of commercials. They paid Samuel L Jackson to come in a promote the Falcons, billboards everywhere. The citizens of Atlanta are immersed in Falcon Football. Local Tv stations have "Falcons Live" shows. By the way what happened to the Paul Johnson Tech show ? I have been recording it for 2 years now it's not on. I just don't see the blitz. IMO Tech gives up the "hometown college crowd" I understand the Athletic Department is working under a tight budget but an exposure campaign is badly needed. Right now it's cool to follow the Falcons because the regular folks are invited to be part if the team. Tech is looked at as an elite center of high learning - not a middle class family or father son football outing destination. Tech should never Ever allow the stadium to be less than 50,000. I didn't say they have to sell 50,000 tickets but they should give away tickets. Folks have brought up youth teams. They should push hard to fill the empty seats. There should be gate give away promotions. Caps, posters, mid size footballs -- anything that has the Tech brand on it. By one get one free on the less popular games. There has never been a no bars type push to promote Tech, it's time it happened. This is Atlanta, one of the biggest cities in the country, we can generate at least 50,000 fans out of a city of millions. [/QUOTE]
