in an effort to come up with a more marketable slogan, Curlee and I come upon these beauties:

"The House that Shelby (or Wally ) Built"
"The White Sands of Brazos Beach"
"The Snow Globe"
"The Blizzard Box"
"The Brazos Blizzard" or "The Blizzard on the Brazos"
"The Ice Cap"
"Gillispie's Glacier"
"Billy's Blizzard"
Derek's Great Accomplishment "AntarctiClyde"
"Albino Arena"
"The Cloud"

so we have like a thousand awful ideas and no really good ones. But I thought you might enjoy our rambling names...


Edit: spelling

"Kate Moss's Handbag"

monochromatic b-ball fanatics.

just thought i'd add to the list of terrible ideas.

Liquid correction fluid.

i thought "The White House" was just awesome

It's cool, but hard to market. "Come be a part of The White House" just doesn't really have that "umph" I don't think.

I'll tell you what's not hard to market:

AntarctiClyde

"White House" works great

Welcome to the White House at Reed Arena - come make sure Billy stays four more years at the White House - i think there is a lot to work with

"White Noise" is pretty good too

I agree with White Noise.

Ok, not that it's going to happen anytime soon, I'm talking like 10 years in the future or whatever... but what happens when Billy leaves? We don't want to name to be related to the coach. Something that doesn't use his name would be better, I think.

I got nothin, though. Y'all are the creative ones.

White House on the Brazos
White Hell

"I feel like we have some unfinished business." - Chris Walker
On the bandwagon since birth. Raised in the bleachers of Kyle, Olsen, and G. Rollie White

i'm not attaching White House to BCG, i'm just offering an example of how it can be used now

"Join the Party in the White House"

Yell or Die

I was referring to these:
"Gillispie's Glacier"
"Billy's Blizzard"
Derek's Great Accomplishment "AntarctiClyde"

Seriously, Curlee, "AntarctiClyde?"

sorry about that, i did not interpret your post correctly, and i totally agree with you btw - it should not be fixed on a coach

I was thinking the same thing Cheer.

My vote is for White noise or white house...both would be good

White Lightning

I like the correction fluid idea.

my vote is for White Noise

The "Toilet Bowl"??

Or the Porcelain Paradise??

For a school that fights stereotype racism, we need to be careful with selection. It sucks that we have to be so ultrasensitive to PC, but given our background as a rural, redneck school, we need to be sensitive to possible conitations to any labels.

i see where you are going with this, but i dont think the "White House" amounts to anything racial especially when we are all wearing white - i agree we do need to watch it though

Didn't the Cowboys already take the name "The White House"? Might want to be careful with that one...

i like white hell, personally

maybe to promote diversity we should have everyone wear a different colored shirt. we could call it "the fruity pebbles bowl"

White noise. Or in this age of sequels, why can't Reed be Holler House II?

I like White Noise... it's not cold enough in College Station to make any of the snow releated ones make sense.

A cooler word than Noise might be nice though... White Fury, or something like that

edit: although I do like the juxtaposition of snow and hell: Snow Covered Hell, The Frosted Inferno... something like that

Texas Snow Day

I thought Blizzard on the Brazos was pretty good.
A little alliteration can go a long way


Now, say "a little alliteration" 5 times fast.

redd38, white noise works better because it is an actual term.

quote:

---

White noise is a type of noise that is produced by combining sounds of all different frequencies together. If you took all of the imaginable tones that a human can hear and combined them together, you would have white noise.

I know it's a real term, but it doesn't sound very foreboding... we should come up with an original term to describe our atmosphere.

The Arena Where Everyone Wears White Tshirts To Every Basketball Game

White Power?

I guess I'm the only one who likes Snow Globe.

No, it was my idea. I like it too
