Sun Devil Fans Dig Gold
Frank Kush Field will be surrounded by a band of gold come the opening of the 1997 football season. The ASU Alumni Association, in cooperation with Intercollegiate Athletics is kicking off a "Solid Gold" campaign to encourage Sun Devil fans to show their pride in the team and their school by wearing solid gold to all home games.
"We want 1997 to be the year of Sun Devil gold," said head coach Bruce Snyder. "It really excites the players to see a sea of gold in the stands. I hope every Sun Devil fan will show their pride by wearing solid gold to the games."
To that end, the Alumni Association is selling solid gold knit golf shirts for $20. They will be available for purchase in August at the ASU Bookstore, the ASU Team Shop and at Alumni Association events. You can also call the bookstore at (602) 965-7928 and ask for an order form.
To encourage students to get in on the gold rush, solid gold T-shirts will be
sold for only $5 on Cady Mall Wednesdays and Thursdays prior to game days.
