4 Ways You Can Make the Sign Happen
OK, this site is starting to get some great, viral publicity after less than 24 hours.
But realistically we still have a long way to go to make it happen. We need about 75% participation from the upper-deck sections to make the sign readable.
That means reaching about 11,000 of the 15,000 people who actually have tickets in the sign sections. And that in turn means reaching several million people in the Washington-metro area with this message over the next two weeks.
Here are 4 ways you can help:
1) Tell everyone you know about the plan and this site, especially Redskins fans, football fans, and Redskins ticket holders. Don't assume other folks have seen it just because you have. Post it to message boards, Facebook, etc. and send it to the media.
2) If you're actually selling tickets in these sections (as a broker or otherwise) advertise the sign as part of the attraction of these seats and emphasize that simply skipping the game won't hurt Snyder because he's already been paid for this season through season tickets. (If you really want to hurt Snyder this season go to the games and don't spend any money at the stadium.)
3) Spread the word at the stadium itself before and during the game. Bring copies of the seating charts and pass them around, especially in the sign sections. Many folks who haven't heard about the sign ahead of time will have a shirt, sweatshirt, or jacket of the appropriate color to wear as their outermost layer. Or you may find people with the wrong color for their seat who are willing to swap seats.
4) Selling cheap, oversized white and burgundy T-shirts around the stadium would seem a great way for some enterprising folks to earn a little extra cash. Depending on location you may have a hard time getting away with this, but if you partner with a local private-property owner near the stadium (perhaps a store or restaurant owner) this could work. Having a copy of the seating charts handy couldn't hurt either.
BONUS: Out-of-town fans can bring signs to away games publicizing the FedEx sign! We'll be at the Atlanta game on Nov. 8th. See if you can spot us on TV!

But I like it when the deadskins play like this year. Go Dan Snyder!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea. I can see signs now saying:
ReplyDeleteIMPEACH OBAMA
FIRE WEBSTER
FIRE IRETON
A noble effort however..you can fire the players and the assistant coaches and head coach and the GM. Not the owner, that is his choice
ReplyDeleteDumbest idea ive ever heard, if you think 11000 of 15000 people are gunna bring signs and just "switch seats" if their sweatshirts are the wrong color you are an idiot sorry but think about it
