Some of us saw the banner while at the game. Others caught the story in the media. Whats your position on it? It may or may not be your cup of tea, either pov is ok honestly.
Me personally, I agreed w the idea and the execution. Hopefully Jed saw it, along w the empty seats and felt embarrassed. I feel some sort of outcry and public statement is ok, in a constructive fashion, in addition to not paying for attendance and concessions. It brought media attention which is good also imo.
It cost $1000? What is that, 10 bucks divided by 100 people? Whats 10 bucks? Lol youll spend that there on a concession, a pack of cigs or whatever. So the notion of "it couldve went to charity, money wasted" or whatever is weak imo.
Hell he did say hold him accountable correct?

Ya, I guess he stepped out for some fresh air at one point, people in the stands saw him and started yelling at him and boo'ing. He retreated immediately. lol

I love it. Everyone should have pressure on them to perform. Even the owner.

ya, the message was a little long winded for a flyover. A simple, "HEY JED, GTFO!" would've had more of an impact.

If we keep up the pressure, maybe he'll bail and sell the team to someone who wants a team in the Mid West. Wouldn't that be awesome!

They know the site of Super Bowl 50, and as the Pac 12 commercial describes,"Silicon Valley's Levi Stadium: Home of the Pac-12 Championship."

Didn't hate it but I think it was a dumb idea. An empty stadium would get him more pressure from the league. It won't hurt him financially as the seats /tickets are already sold but his NFL partners and sponsors may have something to say about it. Empty the stadium and his fellow billionaires will hold him accountable.
