Moving Ahead and Upwards ...

[Zip Watcher]

I think we can all agree that MT & co. have brought a winning attitude to the department that hasn't always been there. In order to be big time .. you need to look & act like you belong in the big time. So they've really done well to improve the marketed image of UA & the Zips. No question in my mind that the production value of the hoops & football games has moved WAYYY upstream.

This is something that's been bugging me since I opened my ticket package back in November. There's something that we might not want to repeat again. Anyone who has one of those ticket books .. take a look at the photo and see if something catches your eye.

On the front of the book is an image of a pretty full JAR with a Zip (Tarver) at the line .. nice picture .. new floor .. etc.

The problem I have is that the scoreboard is visible ... and the Zips are losing big at the start of the second half to a big rival!! Surely, we could have put the Akron basketball logo a little more north on the page to obscure our struggles in that game?

Anyone else notice this?

Small faux pas .. but sometimes it's the little things that separate you from the crowd one way or another.

I think it is a sign that you are one true Zips fan that you examined the ticket book that closely! I didn't notice, but it is observant and actually a good point, but it is funny that you had the time to find that. jk though.

Actually it didn't really take me any time. To be honest .. my eyes when right to it when I saw the picture.

Don't know why I didn't post before .. just reminded of it this afternoon for some reason.
