A different subject for Monday...and, yes, assuming that it is indeed a water tower. It needs painting and needs the M-State logo. I vote maroon. Saw it on the Spring game replay last night, and it just needs an update.
Someone that's 'in the loop' with Scott should send him an email.
Hail State & GO DAWGS!

I have been thinking this for 2 years.

Do not know if I will get a response but I sent him a tweet asking.
Will update if I hear back.
But I agree it needs to be updated with the new logo and like Phack said #HailState or #OurState on the other side.

I am sure scott could get something going on this but I doubt the paint on the water tower falls under the athletic department. I think you might have better luck going to Keenum.

You know how they "wrap" advertisements on to vehicles from city buses to VW beetles ?
I think every other year they should wrap the tower to make it look like a golden egg.

No don't change your mind, #Hailstate would be very cool :)
Wonder the cost of painting that tower?

Maybe the contractor for the football facility would give a good estimate. That would look good...everybody's ideas sound good thus far.

Couldn't go wrong with GTHOM on the tower but it will never happen.

It has been in discussion for the last year or so. The cost to do it is quite steep though and they opted to replace some other logos around campus this year (Palmeiro, light pole banners, etc.)
I expect it will happen in the next year or two.

Haha, we won't have to worry about that for awhile. It'll probably time to repaint it again when tsun gets out of the crapper.

Since the tower looks like the Air Bully balloon, put Walking Bully on it.
Ok, nit really. Walking Bully should be banished from history in the way that Nazis would remove people from history by censoring any photos that they had appeared in.
