Future Big Blue Madness Changes?

[KyCatFan]

Anything you would like to change or add to Big Blue Madness in the future? I would like to see them keep doing the projection on the floor every year. That is probably the best feature from any year that I have seen. Unfortunately I didn't get to attend either year they did it so far.

I think it would be cool if they recorded the wildcat mascot being lowered from a helicopter with a winch coming down onto the Rupp Arena roof. Then as he lands on the roof they switch back to the Rupp Arena floor and he starts repelling down from the rafters onto the center court floor. I think that would look pretty sweet.

We need to get Tubby to come back and wreck a Harley in Rupp.

If anyone was going to wreck a vehicle during madness it was Gillispie.

I agree kycatfan I love the video on the floor. Probably my favorite part. No complaints about what the University does for the fan base every year to kick off the season. I look forward to it every year, in the future I just want coach Cal in that throne leading the way. I love our coach! He is the gold standard! !

Make the men's basketball team practice another 30 minutes or hour longer. Maybe two ten minute halves with the clock stopping on a dead ball.

Probably wouldn't do that since there is the blue/white game. It is more about the pep rally than the actual game. Maybe they could just eliminate the blue/white game and just do the full game scrimmage during Big Blue Madness. Just make it last about 3 hours. The first hour for the women and cheerleaders and the last two hours for the men. They could charge the fee that they get for the blue/white game for Big Blue Madness. It would sellout and they could recoup some of the expenses from it.

They need to play music during the scrimmages. It's dead quite in there during the scrimmages and they need to juice it up a bit.

Vids shown on floor make the event....keep it going!
Lowering mascot is a good ideA
Special effects and fireworks r good
After the intros the event comes to a screaching hault. I think there should be dunking and a scrimmage only but they need to find a way to maintain excitement after the intros. Maybe bring in surpise visitors former players etc. keep the music going and avoiding the dead spots where players are aimlessly walking around waiting for the next drill. We need to treat this like the event it is - entertainment. Keep format as is but after the intros find ways to inject more action and entertainment.

Billy G coming back to ceremoniously tap the keg in the Hyatt around 5:30 would be nice addition.

UK nailed it this year for BBM.

 

[jt drowns]

I would like to see some kind of shootaround warmup where the players try to attempt crazy dunks/shots. No format to it, just whatever the players come up with.

 

[WildMoon]

Yeah, i would like instead of projection on the floor.

I would like a hologram and projection of some of the fan favorite players in Cal's tenure.

1. John Wall's coast to coast UNC
2. Demarcus's Tip in
3. Knight's shot
4. Jort's throwing the ball at that fat dude, i forgot his name.
5. Block by A. Davis
6. Block by MKG
7 Etc

get working UK. I don't give a shit if it costs 1 mil.

Do like the nba allstar game and have drake sing a song for every player as they're introduced and have the music loud . After he's threw have the next player come out to a different drake song preformed by drake.

 

[Ben101er]

I thought the holograms on the floor were amazing. I believe that Disney was involved with it, since UK has a contract with them. Looks like the kind of stuff they are so good at.

Maybe a crazier, more lively crowd would do.
