We need to get the word out, turn the pizza pit into a sea of BLUE!!!

Got this from a UL fan today...

The University of Louisville has announced that the UofL - UK game on August 31, 2008 will be a "Red Out" game,


Spread the word, wear your BLUE with pride!

I had a laugh looking up a definition for what I know as a redout, which is the opposite of brownout/greyout that you experience when pulling high G loads. Wikipedia had this to say.

"A redout, or a reddening of the vision, which is the result of negative G forces caused by performing an outside loop, that is by pushing the nose of the aircraft down. Redouts are potentially dangerous and can cause retinal damage and hemorrhagic stroke."

Perfect reason not to have one, yes?

I want no part of that!! GO BIG BLUE!!

Red out?

Whatever it takes to get fired up over YOUR biggest rival that whipped you last year. Have another beer and learn the game before Aug. 31.

Go Cats!!!

If they don't attend any better than they did toward the end of last season, it'll be a moot point. It might be a "Red Section" instead of a red-out.:icon_mrgreen:

[UedK]

They need to have a PINK out so they don't clash with those awful pink chairs.

Fans are encouraged to wear red to Louisville's nationally televised showdown with Kentucky on August 31 as the Cards will look to "Red Out the Wildcats" at 3:30 p.m. at Papa John's Cardinal Stadium.

In advance of the event, Cardinal Fans are encouraged to support their local U of L retailers for game day merchandise for the game, which will be televised nationally by ESPN.
I'm pretty firmly entrenched on the "Black Out"/"Red Out"/"White Out"/"Long Shirt, Short Shorts Out" bandwagon, but I'm a bit more reticent in my support here, only because I fear that not enough people are going to get the message. In the past, these things have always been conducted during big games towards the end of the season, and there has always been ample time for the word to spread.

Let's face it, when it comes to season openers, fans usually aren't at the top of their game. I mean, I wore purple to the Murray State game last year. It was really embarrassing.

Still, one can't disregard the fact that we are 5-0 in games where this gimmick has been employed. And given that the importance of this year's Battle for the Governor's Cup seems to be growing more and more enormous by the day, I'm all for any sort of good karma that can be thrown into the mix.

So wear red on Aug. 31 or be super embarrassed for four quarters. Your call. Not sure why you're even considering the second option.

Big leap of faith there TnKatFan; that would assume those ULers had learned their primary colors.

[White Out]

In Calgary, we do the sea of red for playoff hockey games since 1988. We have green seats tho, red seats and red jerseys=stupid.

Sounds to me that they are only worried about selling merchandise. :shrug1:

Well said sir, as usual.......is there ever any circumstance that a real Cat fan would wear anything but Blue to a game???.......these color-coordinated efforts have gotten tiresome in a hurry, even those suggested by otherwise well-meaning UK fans.......
