SHSU ROTC has twin 75's named Rudy and Trudy. Sounds like we borrowed one.

definitely progress if true. If they decide it can be up on the tower, the next question is how do you get it up and down from there?

Wow I'm impressed! Maybe they can live load it and fire it at the Saw em off statue so we can redo that as well.
The bad thing about putting it on the activation tower is it wont be fired on the quad for step off or used for review. They would have to use the ramps to get it up there before they open the gates to fans.

Or we can just incorporate a cannon-raising ceremony with the crane after march-in....
Think outside the box, people!

Spirit of '02 stays in the Quad and fires during scores and for other purposes.
at least that was my idea.
Excellent. I hope the next crane pic has some statues being dragged away.
Gig'em!
Will even forget about the awful statues if we get Spirit'02 back where it belongs!

Trudy, if already purchased, needs a face lift and a new name. SHSU should have some background on its military history...tip of the hat to gRam and the team that came up with the idea of three cannons ~ two @ Kyle with the '02 as the travel cannon...some collect stamps ~ we collect cannons
New conference, new Kyle...New cannon.
But when they fire it while suspended from the crane, won't it swing back and forth and create a safety hazard?
Or what if students begin a new tradition of throwing lemon ice lids at it or something while it's suspended? What if the barrel becomes lodged with Double Dave's Pepperoni Rolls?

Next home game flyover?
...oh and gadgets.
What about swagger copter in one corner, johnny Heisman in another, and then the century tree in southwest corner to help shade
instead of raising a 12th man flag, we raise a Come and Take it Flag up the pole as the crane brings up the cannon behind the flag and fires, now that's an entrance.
IT'S HAPPENING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pak 75 on the SE tower.
105 outside on static display.
Spirit of '02 on the Quad to start march in.
Now if we can just get a fully operational M4 to lead the Corps to Kyle Field! MORE GADGETS!
