    They play that at tip-off & the last few seconds of every (home) game the Spurs are about to win. I like that choice of song, too.
    I didn't know they play it at tip-off, but I have noticed it at the end of other games when the Spurs are moments away from victory. It felt especially nice and relieving to hear the song last night.

    You really think the rich assholes who wear LIME GREEN to games are going to put on a baggy black shirt?
    No ! I had the same thought as I was watching people come in to the arena. Who in the wears lime green to a ing Spurs playoff game? I can understand those people in corporate-wear who come directly from work during a weekday, but on a Saturday?! Black, silver or white... get a clue.

    I read somewhere the Chris Cohan (owner of the Warriors) has to pay out of pocket for each t-shirt night
    shocking...

    The team that has missed the playoffs for 14 straight years has to do it that way.


    I just love people "Just have holt pay the money"


    Id love if you people owned a business, had people come up to you and said bull like this.

    JUST SPEND THE MONEY CHEAPSKATE

    ers paying Beno Udrih a million bucks to be a gatorade disher.

    That would make me a cheapskate automatically right there.

    I can't believe that the owner for the Warriors dishes out the $$ for the shirts - they've got a big Comcast logo on them.

    As for sponsors, most times they decide what kind of item they want to sponsor. If they want to do thundersticks, that's what gets done.

    Here we come to get you (you better get crunk)
    Here we come to get you (a little bit more crunk)
    Here we come to get you (you better get crunk)
    Here we come to get you (a little bit more crunk)


    They play that part when they are walking up to tip-off. I think they started that last year ... I think it's great.

    Glad someone else mentioned it-- how strange to expect people on an internet forum to do someone's job because the Spurs can't come up with any marketing ideas of their own.

    Yeah, I can't imagine why anyone would actually ask the people who go to the games what they would like. That's why I never responded to any of the feedback cards/emails I got as a season ticket holder...they should be able to read my mind.

    What does it matter-- the Spurs will simply lie and say the season ticket holders want the games earlier when it has since been shown by more than one member of the media that this was not true at all.

    And this thread is simply someone looking for ideas to pass off as her own.

    You don't know what you're talking about. If you have nothing positive to contribute, get out of the thread.

    I would say the responses in this thread prove otherwise.

    I love my Spurs, but the marketing team has sucked many years now.

    I realize you have nothing better to do now that Toronto is out of the playoffs, but it's clear from this thread and the "manu sighting" thread that you're looking for a fight.

    Just speaking the truth-- sorry if some people can't handle it. Many before me in this thread expressed exactly what I have. Somehow they didn't ruffle your feathers...

    And ruffling feathers really is your goal, isn't it? My only beef with you is the cancer you bring to every thread.

    People have expressed what they don't like... hence the sole purpose of this thread - for people to bring positive and realistic suggestions for how to make things better. You are clearly bitter and will take every opportunity you can to pick fights with people here.

    I would almost bet that the Spurs marketing team had a meeting after that article was released yesterday.

    I have to say that most of the people that are calling out the Spurs Marketing department are off base, sort of. The lower level fan base seems to be a mix of corporate, family, and casual fan. Most of them act like they are watching a movie. The marketing dept. seems to be catering to the fan base that exists, in that respect, they have done a good job. It is a family atmosphere. It is what it is.

    In order to have a better experience and rowdy crowd, I think the culture of the lower level crowd needs to be tweaked. I don't buy that just because some of the fans in the lower level are more well off that they are somehow not real fans. I just think they are more reserved, and not as likely to be the only one in their section to jump up and scream, but are willing to if most of the fans around them get wild. So the answer it seems is to pull that group out of their s .

    Some things should change, music, events to make things a little more relevent to the times, and they should change. The losing days may be sooner rather than later, and some of those lower level fans that they are catering to may not be around much longer leaving those seats open to a different crowd. Change can be bad though, and that may be the reason things have been the same for so long.

    One thing though, I don't have the oppurtunity to go to many games, but have gone since the hemisfair days, not too much seems to change. While I go to see the game, I do feel a little cheated by seeing the same presentation over and over.

    I would like to see this idea ins uted. It would be fun!


    I think it would be neat to have international theme nights, say once a month, that highlight the home country of each of our international guys.

    They could maybe have someone sing their national anthemn in addition to ours, like they do in Canada and have time out entertainment/ games and or give away related to that country.
    I haven't worked out all the details yet- just some preliminary thoughts.

    I would definitely want to ins ute the t-shirt idea for play offs.

    That is all I can tell you off the top of my head. I am at my other job and tired.
    But I am certain I could come up with some neat events, especially with a team to help.

    See you in 50 years.
