How Do I Get Back At My asu Co-workers?

Post by Luuuuuuuute »

The last couple years I've had to endure some excruciating ribbing from some asu alums at work. The worse is the middle-aged woman who couldn't name the coach, let alone any players on their team, but never fails to give me crap when they beat us. Now it's time for some payback :), but I need some suggestions for some good-natured revenge.

All I can think of right now are to decorate their office door/cubicles with newspaper articles about the game, and have my young sons leave several voicemails saying "Bear Down!", "Boo, Sparky!" etc. It's a pretty stale office environment, so my options are limited, but does anyone have any more creative ideas?

BEAR DOWN!

Well, since you said it's a tame environment, I can only suggest tame things.

Bring in Donuts/Bagels (or whatever) to the office and on the box/bag write the final score of the game and BEAR DOWN ARIZONA. If someone wants free stuff, they're gonna have to be reminded of the fact that UofA won.

If you guys have name plates on doors/desks, you could replace all the a's in people's names with little cut out Arizona Block A's.

Do you do casual friday? then every friday should be the day you wear the Pac12 South Championship T-Shirt that I'm sure the UA Bookstore will be selling online/in person.

Change your email signature to reference the fact that we won in some way(perhaps instead of regards, so and so...it says bear down, so and so, etc)

Um...stuff like that
It's long past time to bring this back to the court, let's do it with a small update:

At my office it was pretty straight forward. The winning banner was hung prominently for the next year. A 364 day reminder of who is the winner. Glorious when we win, but a constant reminder when we lose. This year the banner is

Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

Enter the office with Todd Graham's head on Sparky's trident, and covered in red and blue war paint. Jump on the desk and scream "who's next?"

Keep asking them "Who does ASU play this week?"

Yea put up a big sign that has AZ vs Oregon and below it list ASSU with a caption, season over.

Then hang another that at least she has bball season and put, "oh wait, season already over"

Then get her an AZ coffee mug and fill it with #2 pencils (42 of them) and tell her that everytime she uses those it should remind her where her finished behind AZ

Guys, ASSU's season isn't over.

Remind her they still have to get their heads handed to them in a bowl game. A Scum Devil tradition.
