You have heard of the BLACK OUT AND WHITE OUT. I propose we have a GOLD RUSH this Friday night at Kidd Brewer Stadium. Everybody wear gold and break out the new gold jerseys. What do you think ASU fans?

It is going to be cold, I don't care what ASU fans wear, just show up and get LOUD.

it's going to be sooo freaking cold. dress (and drink) accordingly. I personally don't have a lot of gold gear, but that would be a neat idea

Brilliant!

I think you have something with this Gold Rush idea. But I think maybe it's something to wait for next year. When it's not such short notice. Like philly said, I don't have a lot of gold stuff (especially cold-gear gold stuff), and I think most people go for the black. If you get it out earlier though maybe it would catch on and boost them bookstore sales ;)

Iowa does a Black Out and a Gold Rush every year.

People need to start coming up with some more creative names for these things. That or be as organized as Boise State, haha.

Hey APP fans the only Gold Rush I have seen lately is the bandwagon fans heading to the parking lot at the end of the third quarter......I hate it.

Not sure about this one... The last time we did a "insert color" out we had our home winning streak stopped....

I think I'll be coming in my usual:)

Not a fan of the Pantone 117 in large quantities. It's an accent color, not meant to cover a lot of space.

I've been wearing all black to ASU games for over 20 years. I remember when every saturday was Black Saturday (why they stopped doing that I'll never understand)...and dad and mom stopped to buy all us kids black sweatshirts on the way up the mountain. I still fuss at anybody who accompanies me to an ASU game without black clothes on.

Even if a University-called 'gold rush' were on, I'd still be in black.

When will they announce tailgate lots, Stadium has to open for the yosef people, but Raley all the professors will not be out at 5 when it opens?

Gold Rush, i like the uni's but lets not change it up.

NO, it was just an idea the thread maker had, kinda like Georgia breaking out black unis earlier this year. This is all fictional. The jersey I made up does not exist, just something to advance the discussion forward to see what they might look like.

Yeah, I knew your pic was just conceptual, but some of the comments made it sound like there really were new gold jerseys xpeacex

Montana's football team may even make an appearance. Hopefully everyone hides their wallets and car keys.

I would honestly laugh if there actually were gold jersey's and they were used the same way Georgia showed off the black ones haha

Not sure what Boise State did, but most organization I've ever seen:

Boise State does something similar for football. They have alternating sections wearing blue and orange.

FWIW, the blackouts at a football game don't do much on TV. It just looks like nobody is there. Maryland tries them every once in a while, which makes NO sense because red is one of the best colors to do this with. I've been a big proponent of UD trying a yellow out, blue doesn't work either.

xeekx It's going to be COLD RUSH! xeekx

For me, 30 degrees at night is colder than 13 degrees, WC vs UM, with the sun on you.

Just my recollection from growing up in Wisconsin. :)
