ECU holds imaginary "virtual bowl"

[Thrasher865]

LOL. They are charging $50 for a fake ticket to a non-existent bowl game. This is better than the Packers charging $250 for a piece of paper saying that you hold worthless stock in an NFL franchise.

Wow...that is incredibly sad...

 

[utvolpj]

we should sign up to play them

pathetic lol:

I think this is actually a smart thing to do. If they sell 10K of these fake tks and another CUSA team sells the same amount to their bowl game this year, next year they will be more attractive for the better bowls. Those type bowls have to be worried about selling tks and if this is successful ECU can use this in the future.

Because paying $50 to a charity AD is comparable to a rival school paying $50 for a BCS ticket + travel to southern Florida and back + lodging + food. ECU fans are idiots if they think this is an equal comparison.

They are pirates, what else did you expect?

I'd still put the Virtual Bowl above this year's Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl.

If they were really pirates, they'd just go raid said CUSA or Big East team they're trying to outsell.

A good amount of booty.

I like someone's response to pay with fake money. Someone should send them $50.00 in monopoly money.

As would I. ECU v. Air >>>>>>>> UCLA v. Illinois.

Sad but true

What idiot would waste money on this?

An idiot.

I. Don't. Get. It....

 

[govols120]

Is it sad I wouldn't be surprised if Air put up 30 on ECU's "defense"?

 

[WesternNCVol]

Interesting tactic. Pathetic, but interesting.

 

[SDV]

We should do this too

 

[Panthro]

They are bummed by not even getting an invite to the Big East this offseason. If they outsell a team like USF, they'll have legs to stand on, here.
I grew up in eastern NC, and I spent every fall Saturday either at NCSU games, or ECU. I probably would have gone to ECU if I hadn't moved to Maryville in 11th grade.

Do they get to have the much-heralded bowl practices?

Well played.

Read somewhere the money is going to a new basketball facility. It's basically just a fundraiser with a funky concept.
