Why Doesn't The AT&T Give Out Rally Rags Like A Lot Of Other Arenas?

[rascal]

They're too small to "wear".

Lose some weight.

[rascal]

The clappers aren't plastic they're cardboard. You fold the piece of cardboard into a fan looking thing and then you hit it against your hand. And like someone already said they fall apart pretty easily. The one i got yesterday tore and fell apart by the 3rd quarter.

Sounds cheaper than rags.

I'm sure they are less expensive than rags. Its all about money.

Time Warner handed out shirts on the street corners leading into the AT&T Center at some point during last year's playoffs. They were black, had a cartoonish Manu, and said something like "Go For 4." It was an unsuccessful effort to black out the building -- I want to say it was for Game 2 of the Finals, but can't say that for certain.

It was Game 2. I got one as well.

[CubanMustGo]

Precisely, TW handed out the shirts. They aren't a Spurs sponsor and I'm sure it wasn't a coordinated effort to black out the building. More like TW trying to market in the building.

And if you think the Spurs organization would allow someone to come onto the grounds of the AT&T and hand out something without your permission, you're nuts. Go back to sleep.

I hate those stupid cardboard things too. Mine is shredded by the half. I liked the clacker things we used to get. They held up pretty well.

And, Time Warner was giving those things out across the street as people walked in from other parking lots or to cars that were waiting in line to turn in. They were not allowed to step onto the AT&T Center grounds. We actually saw security chase a couple of the guys off when they got too close.

The maracas they handed out at the last Suns game were great. Loud, durable and portable. I plan on taking them to the game on Thursday.

The Spurs will never get accused of over the top theatrics- their player intro is pretty tame compared to some of the others. Fans could get into the games more tho.

I've sat next to too many people who I want to just shake and ask why they are taking up the space in the ATT&T Center of they don't care about the game. The other annoying 'fans' are those who can't seem to put away their damn cell phones.

why are people always ragging on Peter Holt?

[ElNono]

I'll take another championship over any rags or t-shirts...

eh?

A championship has nothing to do with getting the rally rags or not getting them. Its just something for the fans to get into the game and have some fun with.

[Ginofan]

We've gotten rally rags before. I still have two of mine...they are gray and say Go Spurs Go on them. I just can't remember when I got them...maybe 03 or 04?

[Los Spurs]

This thread only proves once again that people are never satisfied with anything that pertains to the Spurs...

[T Park]

Find a company that will sponsor the said item and they will be given away.

No team buys this stuff and gives it away, they all have sponsorship for it. If there was no sponsorship for that stuff, you wouldn't see ANY of it.

Actually the player intros in the playoffs are kick ass compared to the regular season.

That new song they play may be a rehased remixed song but its kick ass and gets EVERYONE into it. I love it

FSSW showed the player intros for Game 3 and I thought they kicked ass.

No doubt, I thought it was bad ass that they showed the whole intro.
