Re: Panther Town

I really like this. Awesome that we're using this to market. Are there commercials airing this in the area?

Re: Panther Town

I think it's pretty sweet and its really well done...but does anyone else think that 1. panther town just doesn't fit and sound right. 2. Panther Nation would be perfect!

Like think about it, "nation" sounds more epic and its not too cocky because we're just referring to ourselves...

Agreed. "Town" sounds small.

Plus, I would have thought with the success of this board (and its not like 90% of the people in the athletic dept arent either on here or watchers), it would have made sense in that respect.

The graphics are cool. The copy needs to be tightened considerably. Its too literal and descriptive. Cut the words by 33% and let the mind fill in the blanks (thus, become more engaged).

CHANGE: It starts with the Dome completely packed with purple
TO: The Dome is Packed with Purple

CHANGE: Then you hear a growl coming from the Cage
TO: A Growl echoes from the Cage

CHANGE: Noise fills the air and your heart... wont. Stop. POUNDING!
TO: As the decibels grow your heart... wont. Stop. POUNDING!

CHANGE: And now you know... THIS IS PANTHER TOWN!
TO: THIS is Panther (Nation)!

Re: Panther Town

I actually like Panther Town.

I am thinking they may be starting something that relates to the whole UNI football/tailgating atmosphere around the Dome. Hang some banners coming down Hudson Road that say 'Now Entering PantherTown'.

I am sure I am in the minority on this one, however.

Re: Panther Town

I thought it went along with the PSC,"Paint This Town Purple" signs they were selling at the spring game.

Re: Panther Town

I think they're trying to push that the Cedar Valley is Panthertown.

This. I think there is a significant push right now to finally get the town's buy in to the Panthers. Bottom line is that we live in a metro of 120,000 people and yet struggle to get more than 13,000 in the Dome on a regular basis. Conquer the Cedar Valley first and then aim for the rest of the nation

I agree with all of your word changes.
