ZachTheZip Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Here's something to keep you all occupied until tomorrow when it rolls out. Can anyone guess what this gigantic poster will be? It will cover the entire east end of the fieldhouse (facing Can't State). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UAZipster0305 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Interesting!...My guess would be that it says "Roo Town" on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowdyZip Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 "Roo Town" I LIKE IT! Perhaps released in relation to beginning construction on the stadium? GO ZIPS!!! BEAT K-S-U!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachTheZip Posted September 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Perhaps released in relation to beginning construction on the stadium? Speaking of which, anybody hknow when they are planning on breaking ground for IC stadium? I thought it would be this month because of the very limited time frame we have to get this thing done.

ZachTheZip Posted September 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 I forgot to tell you guys, the poster's dimensions will be around 200 feet long by 70 feet tall. It should be one of the biggest billboards in all of north-east Ohio except for the gigantic LeBron poster in Cleveland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoZips88 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 My first guess is: "Roo Town ... This Is Your Team!"Second guess: "Can't State REALLY sucks!!! Go Zips!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckzip Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Maybe it's a picture of the new stadium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ziptrumpet87 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 will it be visible from 8? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skip-zip Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 That seems just about impossible to see that from Route 8, unless there are no leaves on the trees, and you are really looking. Which means you better be the passenger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zipsrifle Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Definately something about Roo Town. I agree, that it would be very hard to see from Rt. 8. My guess is that it:1) Raises community awareness about Akron Athletics.2) It will in some way be visible from the Stadium Construction Cam.3) Will create quite a buzz initially. I like the ingenuity behind this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowdyZip Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Just got back from class....and it appears the right side of the banner started to fall from the roof so i believe they'll be "unveiling" it today. It says the usual "Roo Town: This is YOUR town." and some sort of label to signify its placing on the fieldhouse. Only the left side of the banner was opened. My guess is it'll be completely visible by this evening if anyone is near campus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rd&twenty Posted September 21, 2007 Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 Roo Town. And I hope they got 2 so they can put one at the entrance to the Bowl. That would be great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
