To appeal to the young adult base that everyone seems to wants to attract…

Anime Night.

I know… I’m in my mid 40s now and it’s not my thing either, but I work with a bunch of college educated, young professionals who are absolutely obsessed with Anime. It’s huge right now and its everywhere.

Work with a small studio, create a limited edition shirt for the students, meet and great at the tailgates, paint the endzones to match, etc.

Honestly all you’d really have to do is update the video board graphics during in-game promos.

I really really want to say that this is the stuff of Rice, but maybe I’m just getting old

You know, based on my recollection of the smell from walking through the Furry Convention on the way to last year’s UTSA game, this kind of thing in our stadium would create an air quality alert.

That’s not anime. That’s… something else. Lol

I love the idea! Only question is what do we do with them after they walk into our trap? Do we relocate and release them into a more suitable environment? Or…

Anime night?

Cheese and Crackers.

I will agree to the concept of Anime night as long as we are the 3rd team to do it after Notre Dame and Alabama.

hard pass.

would alienate the regular / hardcore fans. sports and anime are typically polar opposites in terms of the crowd they attract meaning who would it really draw?

Heck yeah! That’s what we grew up on.
Now it’s all serious and stuff. But I think speed racer qualifies.

I don’t think the groups are as opposite as they were a couple of decades ago. The Chargers were roundly applauded when they released their schedule as an anime intro two years in a row. It’s not uncommon for college or NFL or NBA players to talk openly about it, or for rappers to reference it. Anime is basically just another part of pop culture nowadays, especially the super mainstream stuff.
