Title: Dolphins vs. Texans game event
Post by: The_Phinatic on June 07, 2006, 06:42:51 pm
Just in case any of you are interested.  This is similar to the Bucs game last year some of you did with me.  Ticket and tailgate combined.  I got them from the Texans.  Selling them at my cost plus a small markup for a t-shirt so we can all wear the same thing to the game.  I bought 46 spots today and 32 are already gone.  With enough notice, I could get 23 more if the other 14 sell fast.  Mezzanine level in the endzone.  Closer to the Dolphins side than the Texans.  Got the last two rows with a piggyback set up of 23 and then 23.  We can stand up the whole game if we like and no Texans fans will be behind us!  Sweet!

If I track down where the team hotel is, I plan to get a block of rooms for those interested.  GO PHINS!

I have vacation plans for that weekend, or I'd do this in a second.  I'd love to check out the new stadium in Houston. 

I'd highly recommend it to you guys to go.  The Phinatic puts on a good party.  I'll look for you guys on TV.

Hey Doug,

What price are we lookin' at?  I think I'm down for 4.

It's all there my friend.  Look at what all you get before the price freaks you out  ;D.   The Texans ticket office requires you to buy a tailgate party for Group Tickets.  I think it's a decent deal though and sitting with over 40 dolfans is going to be a blast.

Is there a possibility I can just get a shirt so I can wear it that day on my vacation? :)

Absolutely.  I always print at least 72 so there will be extras.  Not sure what it's going to look like now and I'm looking for ideas.  The only thing I havecome up with so far is a Dolphin riding a bull.  Their mascot is a bull and so is their helmet logo.

How about a dolphin roping a bull. I would say the image of one thrown on it's back and tied up is more intimidating.

I was gonna say - A Dolphin, a tough one, maybe the same one from the Tampa shirts, riding a horse and lasso-ing a bull.  A strangling look on the bull's face, eyes bugging out of his skull, like his skull is about to pop...



Title: Re: Dolphins vs. Texans game event
Post by: The_Phinatic on June 09, 2006, 06:16:24 pm
Yeah, something along those lines is what I'm working on.  I'm kind of leaving it up to the artist, but I told him a Dolphin on a bull type deal.   I'll mention the lasso idea.  Good stuff.

One other thing I was thinking was about making it a Culpepper shirt since the camp reports today got me so fired up.  I may go that route for the Bills game, but there is no guarantee he will even be playing by then.  Looks good though.

Texans Culpep idea:

"To hot a Pepper even for Texas"!  Or something along those lines.  The pic would be a chili pepper characture (sp?) with cool sunglasses on and a #8 football jersey that looked liked the one a team we know wears, but not enough to violate trademarks. ;)

What do you think?  Bull or Pepper? ;D

Dave, you joining us?  Would love to have you.

I'd vote for bull over pepper, but either one works.

Post by: The_Phinatic on June 10, 2006, 08:55:15 am
Well, that's a bunch of damn bull Brian  ;)!

Bull it is then.  I'll do a Culpep shirt for the Jills game.

GO PHINS!

No. I'd like to but I just can't commit right now.   :'(

Phinatic is going to order more if he can get more commitments.  I'd like to see you there.

Right now, I am sold out assuming everyone ponies up the dough, which probably won't happen.  So, I may have a couple or so.  If you are serious about going, I wouldn't take a chance though.  I'd rather order the extras to guarantee you a seat.  Would love to see us bust 50 or even 60 fans.  We are at 46 right now! 

I was dead set on going with orange for the shirts, but someone requested aqua.  What do you guys think?  I just want to make sure we stand out.  Texans colors are red, white, and blue FYI.

I think either Aqua or Orange will do fine. 

BE CAREFUL IF YOU GET AQUA.  Go check the shirts ahead of time to make sure that you can get the Dolphins shade of aqua.  I've seen other custom Fins shirts done with that color and if it's not spot-on, it looks really weird.  ...more like the Marlins.

He did aqua shirts for the Marino HOF thing and they came out perfect.  I guess he can re-use that.

If I can go, would someone be able to pick me up and get me back to the airport? I'll be coming alone.


Title: Re: Dolphins vs. Texans game event
Post by: Dave Gray on June 11, 2006, 02:48:05 pm
I can't.  I will be coming on the day of the game via car from Austin.


Title: Re: Dolphins vs. Texans game event
Post by: Frimp on June 11, 2006, 03:45:42 pm
I'm going to go ahead and say yes. Put me down for 2. PM me your address and phone number.

Also, can this be put on a card?

u guys still have tickets. im thinking about it since im in austin and its a relatively close drive.


Title: Re: Dolphins vs. Texans game event
Post by: The_Phinatic on June 30, 2006, 09:40:32 am
I believe I have a couple left.  If you pay before someone else, I'll guarantee you tickets.  I'm waiting way too long on some payments and those people are at risk to lose their spots.  This ain't no charity  :D! 

I'll send you a PM.
