VCU Ram Fest

[97spiderfan]

VCU is hosting an event called Ram Fest next Saturday at the Siegel Center. It is a free and public event. All Men's and Women's players are going to be there signing autographs, games for kids in their Kids zone, you can buy tickets/season tickets at the event and other merch.

What a great way to build fan engagement, especially young fans (kids) with the autographs and autograph posters. And a chance to meet and interact with the players for all fans. Wondering why UR is not doing a similar type of event?

Because Hardt and Mooney love to limit exposure. Crazy. Culture of fear.

vcu is also holding an open practice for season ticket holders on 8/30

Likely won't matter much but going to a parents development event at RC with Pres tomorrow late afternoon and chance Hardt will be there - if so, will at least say that VCU event sounds such a good idea would we ever consider etc?

Really want to make a snarky comment, but will refrain as the point has already been made on other threads.

I do think that the Spider Kid’s Club is one positive for the program and there is definitely no contest between the RC and SC for family friendly atmosphere.

There is plenty of room for creative marketing and fan engagement. It only takes 1) a willingness to do these things and 2) skills to make it happen.

In a year following a disastrous year and with 2 years of bad OOC schedules, something positive could go a long way.
