White out would have been better, but lets see how this works.

Yes, let's make the Oregon State game an even bigger deal. Real smart move here. :roll:

I believe it is printed on the season tickets.

It was on twitter today with a map of what sections are supposed to wear white and what sections are supposed to wear red.

As far as people blaming bad performances on white outs, I just have to say I cannot disagree with you more. This does not make the Oregon State game any more or less important

Gimmicks are gimmicky.

We should be above crap like this. LAME!

I don't like them either but pretty much every top program does this stuff. No one is above it.

Do UK, UNC and Duke? Don't really know. A quick search shows that Louisville has 2 this year.

One of my favorite axioms in sports is: "Act like you've been there before".

UA is not ASU. We don't need gimmicks to fill up the stands. Tempe Normal was actually a pretty clever gimmick since ASU basketball is in such poor shape.

White out:

Isn't it just about having some fun instead of filling up the stands? What harm do these do? These "white outs" or "gimmicks" are not the reason why the Cats lost to Washington and UCLA in them and are not the reason why the Cats have not been to the final four since 2001.

what I'm waiting for is the plaid out, or maybe the tie-dye out (with Walton being one of the tv guys for that one, of course)

I don't really care but what I don't get is, aren't all our games essentially a red out? I believe so.

Because I just want to go to the game and not have to worry about what shirt to wear. I have a closet full of red UA shirts. I don't own a single white shirt and don't want too.

I had a white shirt, but I washed it with my red shirts. Maybe we should have a pink out.

Regarding the first comment... Did you run for student council every year in high school, or did you ever take a break?

Regarding the second... There you go being passive aggressive again. Are you sure you're not a chick?

Just come out of the Assu closet already.

That last picture looks like a prison riot at Santa Claus' north pole prison.

I like the themed games. I always end up buying a shirt to expand my UA wardrobe. Nothing wrong with changing it up a bit, but it's also nice we don't have to worry about engaging fans and getting butts in seats.

i like 'em too, as long as the athletic dept steers clear of the likes of "polka dot-out!", "plaid-out!", "camo-out!", etc.
stripe-out is getting a little close.

that said, dwill's last second block vs. UW against an all-white backsplash (plus gumby and bananaman) will always hold a special place in my heart.

Question for the stripe out-

Is it red-white-red-white

Or

White-red-white-red?

I don't want to show up and look like an idiot

Thanks!
