Home Jersey Number Difficult to Read From the Stands

[stech81]

Your not the only one I had a very hard time seeing the numbers

Insufferable fan base

Believe you are referring to 2011... I don't think they fixed it ... I think they just made the numbers blue also .. so we had a white jersey with gold shoulder stripes and blue letters(instead of the original gold numbers) and a white jersey with with blue shoulder stripes and blue numbees

You are probably correct. Hard to think that they made a whole bunch of new jerseys with thicker outlines.

Point taken... And me/I are one of my peeves. [emoji21]

Not trying to be that guy, but you had a typo there:

Not sure if there is anything that caN be done about it before the Clemson game, but it would make a lot of season ticket holders happy if you can "make something happen", so that we can better make out who is on the field.

Just saying it’s important to pay attention to the details when complaining about details.

The jerseys are great. Please don’t complain about this.

You know what will solve this......Blue jersey. Now I will get on the back to Tampa only to find the board has blow up. Your welcome

Except for the numbers being hard to read. The broadcasters said the same, btw.

The jerseys looked good but it's ok to admit the gold-on-white combo lends itself to having a contrast that leads to difficulty distinguishing between the two colors from distance.

I hope you took all the blue jerseys with you. LOL

I think gold numbers on white jerseys will die off hopefully by next year. Simply does not work vs alternative solutions for a white jersey.

Loved the look on a bright sunny day. Is it a little harder to make out numbers? Yeah a little. Is it impossible? Hell no. We have the whiniest fan base in America.

Is it a good thing or a bad thing most of em stay at home on game days? I’m really starting to wonder and maybe changing my long time stance.

You know what “looks worse” than your most hated Tech uni ever? BDS not even half full. Biggest reason of them all that we struggle recruiting.

These are the base uniforms for the next 3 years btw. Not sure some of you caught that memo when they were released.

uniforms looked awesome on TV, the Gold Helmets are sweet.

Hopefully they'll be smart and switch to the unis with the blue numbers, which are more traditional Tech uniforms anyway. Like no one saw this coming. I've been going to Tech games for 40 years and, unless you have a thick blue border, gold numbers don't work. If you are more than 10 or 15 rows from the field, you cannot see them unless the players are facing you and standing still. Needs to be fixed and luckily, we have the unis with the blue numbers to go to.

DOH, you're correct. I hate that! Just proof that a GT grad and not an English major

Back when the SAT was 1600, I scored just about evenly... Compared to the incoming class, that was above 80% in English and below 80% in Math... Still managed to get out with a BEE..

I must be blind as can be because from my seats in upper east (224,223 previously) I've never been able to see the numbers well. My brain pieces together the position and general shape of the numbers in hopes I'm cheering for the correct player

Yep!!!

Same issue has happened in the past. #sigh

We have an old, old fan base, including myself. The heat, traffic, stairs, lack of parking, etc. is rough on us. As our fan base dies off, it is not being replaced with the graduates from the past 20 years. Football is just not a priority for many of them

I don’t get the “Fanbase dying off thing” people hve been saying that for years number of fans has and will always be about the same.
