1. get 3-4 little kid cy costumes and have them follow you around and do a little skit like thing during a quarter break in an end zone.
2. razz the refs/opposing mascot/players a little more
3. more community events - should have been at the last barnstormers game to represent

How about i deliver 15 minutes before kickoff cuz that is when good cyclone fans are in their seats anyway

Sorry, I'll still be out in front of the gate shotgunning those last 3 or 4 beers before I go in... :smile:

Actually, I'm usually in my seat 10-15 minutes before kickoff, so I'll take pepperoni please. I can pass a couple slices up to 4VR4CY to save you the extra trip. :wink:

Kinda like the Giant Slide at the fair... I have freak'n Herky come up the slide to give me a hug, and after 5 years of making personal invitations to Cy, still no Cy on the slide. And now I'm not there :no:


Of course I think the PR Cy's do the fair... and they aren't very adventerous so... doesn't really suprise me

Potty humor seems to sell. Sometime in the mid-sixties (sorry I can't be more specific because I was there, only those who weren't there can remember the sixties) during the Kansas football game, Cy strolled out to the center of the field, squatted, and "pooped" out a couple of Kansas Jayhawks (chickens that had been dyed blue). We thought it was funny (the game wasn't because Gale Sayers was playing for them then) but Cy got lots of flack for that. I think the only charge that stuck was cruelty to animals for the dyed chickens.

I think a cool pre-game ritual that would be cool is if there was a giant inflatable "Cloning machine" where the giant inflatable helmet is. Then at the start of each game... Cy can go into the machine... some cool effects can go on the scoreboard... and then after the machine is done cloning cy... a bunch of Cy Clones (the football team) comes out... Or actual Cy Clones (that look like Cy... which I know the squad has the ability to do if they got permission... ;) )

I think one of the rules of Cy is that he is never in 2 places at once... even if those 2 places are physically different but he may make a TV appearance, so I'm pretty sure having more than 1 Cy in any given place is a violation of that rule as well

Cy's sidekick, the agile - some might say squirrelly - Clone was introduced to Cyclone fans at Hilton Coliseum in January 1989. An irrepressible dancer and a hit with children and students,

Back in the early 90's, Cy used to take a few band members to help grab the other team's mascot and carry it to one of the goal posts for a rack shot on the goal post pad.

Sadly, during those years it was one of the few game day highlights.

Put in a zip line between the scoreboard and the Jacobson building and have Cy slide down the zip line before the game starts. Probably couldn't be done but it would be pretty cool.

ahhh yes... always good to see Herky grt nutted. Also liked the light saber fights with T.C. (UNI mascot), or the band grabbing TC and carrying him off to put a "I <3 Cy" shirt on him (He came running out like he was in agony...)

Also got a little kick out of seeing Bevo and Cy playing Rock-Paper-Scissors in Austin...




Oh a whole, mascot - mascot interactions are a fan favorite :yes:
And sadly, sometimes better than the game :no:
