I wondered how some, you in particular, would take my reply. Thx for not being all hardcore...and realizing it's just an opinion on an Internet forum.

If we.have a special way to dress for (almost) half the home games then it starts to not be all that 'special'. Plus, the fail rate goes way up. How about just doing it just for what looks like will be the biggest home game of the season ?

I think my favorite was the "White Out" we did for Pat White's last game. Now, that was special and I'm pretty sure the idea started on the Blue Lot? I dare not say who came it with because everyone on the board would say it was thier idea.
