Guest LU4LIFE Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coachacola Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 The Bird Cage I like that. No, not the bird cage! Remember this movie? http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/76/Birdcage_imp.jpg/215px-Birdcage_imp.jpg I don't think that would work well for a school named Lamar, remember the movie Revenge of the Nerds?

Guest boomer Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CardAmbassador Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 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... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NorthoftheBorder Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I don't think Umphrey paid all that money to have the stadium go by a nickname and not Provost Umphrey Stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CardAmbassador Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big T Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CardAmbassador Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CardAmbassador Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
