Other than bumming sharpies, maybe that whole section needs to be bought out next SB, and everyone dresses in black or white, and the mob forms a massive QR code of clothing with a coordinator on the opposite side.

Haha, now that sounds like something that folk in online communities could somehow pull off. An expensive job, mind.

Somebody near the bottom of the stand should throw a Casascius coin into the end zone, that would get air-time assuming that a player found it. Of course, the person throwing would likely be ejected from the stadium and banned, but meh, the sacrifices we must make Tongue

Having the word Bitcoin on there somewhere would probably get us a lot more attention.   You'd think the majority of people will look at that banner, shrug, and move along.  Even if they scan it there's no links to Bitcoin other than a site that also happens to accept it.

Still, good work getting it all organised etc Smiley

EDIT:  Oh, it didn't get in anyway?   Bummer Sad

What a bummer! Next time let's find one of the elusive BTC millionaires and have them just take out an ad.

There was probably liquid explosive in that banner.  Thank you TSA for keeping us safe from demons and devils.  It's now safe for us to watch head injuries on FOX.

Our banner could have been seen from here, located just right of those in orange, left of the goal post:

About the only good thing to happen all night.

(He'll be fine, plus Seattle's secondary is dirty as hell anyway, plus he's an ass even if he does have good ball skills.)

That said, I was supporting the Hawks in the third - such was my disappointment in the Broncos. I wanted a shutout.

Interception field goal where our banner would have been seen.



It would've probably been too small to be seen I reckon.

But it was a great attempt and you get an A+ for effort Phinnaeus.

What a game though eh?

That's what I call an ass-whooping!

Epic FAIL

 you get an A+ for effort
You don't get an A for effort. You don't get shit for effort.  You only get something for success.  When did we start paying for 'fail'?  Forget that.  The next guy will actually pull it off and then he will get something.  WTF?  Did you get a trophy at your school for getting a D and trying real hard?  Fail = Fail.  No cigar.

Actually, I'll have to agree with TK's sentiment, albeit I would have penned "Epic FAIL" in larger red font.

In fact, I'm going to quote his post in my thread(s) concerning this summer's race to atop Mount Everest to plant a sponsored(s) Bitcoin-theme flag.

We should all live by the adage: Out of every epic fail, there's opportunity for an epic win.

Odd! Noticed the banner to the left of that blue 12 banner, centered between the goal posts. This is approximately where our Bitcoiner would be seating, and it looks like to be of the same size depicting a very similar image, begging the question, did it somehow make its way in?

First off, supposedly the banner didn't make into the stadium due to security. I simply noticed a similar sized banner, located where our guy would have been seated, blowing up the image. The banner I'm pointing out is in the center of the following image...



...blown up from this image:



Apologies for having you guys playing Where's Waldo, for that wasn't my intent.
