Rick George announces naming rights changes for parts of Folsom

Just imagine the sponsorship possibilities:

The gates that the students use...let's say Qdoba...there would be drawings for Qdoba gift cards.
The gates for the visitors...let's say Kum and Go...drawings for gas cards or first 100 out the gate gets those gift cards by the 4Q. Lyft could also offer reduced rates until the 4Q.
The gates on the east side...Rockstar to keep the fans amped up behind the CU bench.
The gates on the west side...let's say Party City gift cards...along with a free beverage...urine bombs will be falling on the visitor side.

In all seriousness, having sponsoring for the student ticket gate with the first 500 or 1000 students to enter getting some type of free swag or food or gift card would be a brilliant idea.

Great idea but I’m still voting for the swimsuits.
 
It’s Folsom.

Never change it. I understand the pros of sponsorship, and I don’t care. Frickin commercialism doesn’t need to invade every aspect of my life. Never change it.

This is my red line.

If they violate it, we’ll have to bomb Syria.

Google at Folsom Field.

**** writes itself, brilliant.

Edit: I was a bit toasty when I posted last night, but really why not see if Google is interested. They are apart of the Boulder community and carry the brand recognition which would draw the eyeballs (from both FB, summer concerts and other events held at Folsom). Let Google overhaul Folsom with tech, make Folsom the first or best "smart" stadium with stramlined concessions, "zero" wast initiatives and other add one which enhance the game day experience. Rebuild Blach with Google to make the space multidisciplinary and fan friendly zone. Make Blach so bad ass that whenever CU plays on nationalTV there is a 10min promotion video on the innovations of the "Google Center".

Make the campus proud of the stadium. Intergrate the Google "smart stadium" and academic community. Use the stadium as a teaching space, have Gooegle emlloyees partner with the faculty to facilitate studen research.

This.

Why can’t I order and pay for a beer and food from my seat and go to a pickup window and have my phone scanned to get my order? Concessions is a huge waste of time when at a game. I think this would help increase those sales.

Except for the fact that the wifi completely sucks in the stadium...

How much different is that from the current concessions process? In seat delivery would be the key IMO.

To me its the time out of my seat to walk to the concession stand, wait in line to order, wait for order to be put together and the walk back. Compounded during times when many others are doing the same makes that a large chunk of time where my butt isn't in the seat watching the game.

EDIT: However drone delivery to my seat should be the new standard!

In your scenario, you will still have to do all of those things except wait for the order to be put together (which doesn't really seem to be the issue at hand). Pick up windows would still have lines- and you'd still have to walk back and forth. Clearly, drones are the only answer.
 
Actually, a concessions app would be a great idea. Pay via the app and get a text when the order is ready. Have 5-6 pickup stations set up throughout the stadium. Name the stations something unique so people know where to go and/or to request from a specific spot. How cool would it be to get a text saying “your beer and nachos are ready to pick up at the Rashaan Salaam kiosk”.

The John Embree kiosk is out of bottled water again!

Attn: Not Sure
Your recent order for two dozen piss bombs is available for pick-up at the Allbuffs Urinal Trough located at the top of the Casa Bonita Shoved Granny stadium stairs.

Pick up windows would be like going to Pizza Hut or Dominoes where your name would be on a flat screen, so it should be quick and easy if you had a Buff Concession App.

Selling a beer and/or hot dog should be quick and easy but it doesn't work out that way. Other than paying ahead, I just don't see how how this pick up window line is much different than a concession line (where the food is generally prepared and ready for pickup anyway). To be fair, I assume payment is one of the biggest contributors to long concession lines, so I do like the idea of taking care of that ahead of time.
 
Don’t even need a separate app. Just incorporate it into the Gameday app they already have. It could be used at the Events Center, too.

Actually, that would be a good way to test the system.

Yeah but you’ve paid and they’ve had time to put it together. They aren’t telling ‘everyone’ to come. If you get a text when it’s ready the only people waiting are the ones who have paid and just need to walk up and grab said food. Concessions are a joke in stadiums.

Speaking of, they need to have automated piss balloon auto fill stations at said troughs. Complete timesaver right there.
 
BCS is right though, they need to fix the WiFi in the stadium before they could do something like this. That’s the biggest obstacle right now. That’s also why they should roll it out at the Events Center first. It’s a lot easier to cover the Events Center with a decent WiFi than it is to cover the entire Folsom Stadium.

All those people who stand there and take the order can now be freed up to prep food thus faster service
