Nicknames For PUS Stadium

[Guest LU4LIFE]

I think this will be fun. Other university's have nicknames for their stadium such as

 

Michigan---The Big House

Ohio State-The Shoe or The Horse Shoe

LSU--------Death Valley

Texas A&M--The 12th Man

Florida----The Swamp

Georgia----Between the Hedges

Notre Dame-The House Rockne Built

Nebraska---The Sea of Red

Penn State-Happy Valley

ETC

 

Now it's time for PUS to get one, i'm going with The Birds Nest

[Guest CardAmbassador]

Boomtown!

 

or

 

REDVOLUTION SQUARE?

[Guest LU4LIFE]

The House of Cards :)

The Bird Cage

The Bird Cage

No, not the bird cage! Remember this movie?

I don't think that would work well for a school named Lamar, remember the movie Revenge of the Nerds?

Look I love the Boomtown. I Like House of Cards. What you need to focus on here is if we keep calling it the PUS it will stick. So this is something that needs to be fixed fast and catch on quick.

[Guest CardAmbassador]

Good names stick because they sound good and they have some meaning behind them.

 

There are only a few themes we can go with:

 

Cardinal (Bird) or Big Red (Color) themes: The Bird Cage, House of Cards/REDVOLUTION SQUARE

 

Oil Theme: Boomtown

 

Food Theme: Boudain Bowl, Crawfish Bowl etc.

 

I'm not nearly creative enough to come up with anything although It seems like ideas need to fall into these categories.

 

You can also do something with flight...

I don't think Umphrey paid all that money to have the stadium go by a nickname and not Provost Umphrey Stadium.

[jdcurran235]

Provost Umphrey "House of Cards" == Just sayin

[jdcurran235]

and do you realize how many PUSS jokes can be made with our current acronym.

[mllme]

Pro Umf

 

or

 

Pro Bowl

[mllme]

I also like Pro Umf 'Bird's Nest'

[Guest CardAmbassador]

Pro Umf

 

or

 

Pro Bowl

 

I really like this. The Pro Bowl, it just rolls off the tongue.

 

I like 'The House of Cards' too but it's a bit too wordy. I'm afraid it wouldn't stick.

 

'The Bird House' is another one I like it's 3 syllables.

 

'The Bird Bowl' is another that might stick

[jdcurran235]

"Red Dawn"

[coachacola]

"Pro-U Stadium" or "the pro" for short

[Big T]

I was talking to someone early today about Lamar vs Northwestern and they asked me if it was away or at home and i answered it was at "The Cage" before i could really think about it. So i guess that one has kinda stuck with me and i like it.

Red House or The Nest or The Firm or the Aviarium.....The Big A

"Pro-U Stadium" or "the pro" for short

 

I REALLY like Pro-U Stadium!!

[Guest CardAmbassador]

I was leaning towards "The Pro" or the "The Pro Bowl" but after reading T's comment I think it makes the most sense. out of the ideas I've heard so far I like 'The Cage' it makes sense with our mascot, it's intimidating (a cage match) and I see a picture of the stadium looking through the perimeter fence with 'The Cage' written on it.

 

I like it.

[Guest LU4LIFE]

I second that, I really like "The Cage".

[theTestament]

The Oil Field

the Gulf.....after Gulf oil naturally

The hill......spindletop hill

How bout "The Stink Bowl" since it always smells like a fart from the plant next door. LOL

Maybe I've inhaled too many fumes, (doubtful since I lived in the sticks my entire life) but I rarely smell the plant I don't think I've ever smelled it on game day but I've definitely smelled it on odd days when I would park at the Montagne Center.

 

Besides 'The Cage' sounds awesome. Or at least it does to me.
