As far as I know, this commercial is shown statewide.

Here's the link. Click on the "256 kbps" link under "Football:

Whaddya think?? I think it's a step up from even last years, IMO, because Coach Bohl is the announcer, and not some dry, faceless narrator.

Nice job, I like it. I'd love to see Delaware do something like that, it's rare that we do much marketing.

I feel the same way. Maybe we should all forward this link to our respective ADs to show them how it's done!

We would 37 if we needed to sell season tickets. As it is there is a huge waiting list so it would be a waste of money.

Hold on just a minute. The commercial is to sell season tickets or tickets in general. Montana sells out every game by over 400 tickets standing room only without an expensive commercial running on TV.

What would the reason be to spend a couple hundred thousand bucks doing one and running it on TV?

NDSU is running these commercials specificcaly because we need to increase ticket sales.

We have about 6,500 season tickets sold for 2006, but we could really do better.

I too like the commercial and wish the Griz would do something similar, even though we are the almighty Montana Grizzlies who have perfected every aspect of the game and can learn nothing from the rest of I-AA, who are all lower tier and not worthy of our wee, even if on fire. Bow down, and don't dare post something good about your program, because the Griz have already done it better...recognize!

Sorry, I couldn't resist. :D

Great marketing piece. Cal Poly did one last year that was pretty good...don't know if it helped with ticket sales or not. The apathy in SLO is tiresome. I hope the stadium upgrades help!

Nice. Do all your tailgaters wear ties? Must be a very classy, sophisticated environment.

any idea if that figure is up from last year at this time? Hopefully we can at least continue the yearly trend of 1000+ extra in the seats every game.

I'm pretty sure there were 5,500-6,000 season tickets last year. I remember something on WDAY where they stated there were almost 5,000 season tickets sold, and they were expecting about 5,500.
