Albany Sign Ideas

[atb9]

The sign idea thread usually goes OT quickly but here were some ideas tossed out:

"Abajo Colgate"

"Welcome To The Ivy League Championships" (I think one could really slap Colgate with their Ivy League inferiority complex)

"Welcome To Lynah-Middle-East" (Mike?)

"Colgate: Not Our Rivals" or "Not Our Harvard" or "Colgate: Hotel Janitors" or "Where's Our Piccolo?"

Any other ideas that you would like to share?

I know people mentioned responses they had to what the Colgate students were yelling; those may make good signs if the Colgate fans bring theirs.

Welcome to the ECACHLMNOPQRS Playoffs

(Weren't they supposed to change the name of the league?)

Welcome to the Crayola Bowl

I'm planning on bringing the sign I made for Harvard@Lynah: "At Harvard, even this fish could get a 4.0" (accompanied by a picture of a fish)

I have airport layover time to make more signs, so any ideas are welcome. :-)

Well done! Nothing like a little subtle political humor. I'm sure 90% of the people there won't get it, but all the same, very creative.

Wherever Cuba has played in the World Baseball Classic, there have been signs saying "Abajo Fidel" ("Down with Fidel").

I never would have thought of bringing that concept over for use against Toothpaste U.

Do you compare the size of your Johnsons?
or Little Johnson, Big Johnson

(unforutnately the little one didn't play at lynah)

Yep, but if you saw it on tv during pre-game, Little Killer was probably holding it.  And I give all credit for the creativity to my Duke friend, who came up with it from my instructions to brainstorm: something involving fish and/or grade inflation.  She thanks you, I'm sure

[jtwcornell91]

Good think he's not a goalie ("Pull your Johnson!").  When he gets penalized, we can yell "Johnson ... in the box!"

[Killer]

My old roomie watched the game on TV and told me that he saw both you and Somers (aka Little Killer) with the sign.  All I got was a shoulder in the picture.
