Maybe. I thought maybe a former Sammy.

don't forget there are no blowers and it folds up to more than 4 feet by 4 feet, completely compressed. Maybe offer it to FAU or some high school with an owl mascot (that has to be who is bidding on Sammy-unless it is being bought to be burnt at the stake)

Oh, I saw both of those facts. All the more reason I couldn't justify spending that kind of money on it, as cool as it might have been for Christmas or Halloween decorations.

I'm a former Sammy. I would probably burn the last costume before I would wear that thing.

It did cross my mind to bid on it to take and set up outside TDECU for the next game... But I live in an apartment, so storing it is a no go.

Oh your Home Owner’s Association would really love you.

Wow I forgot I had bid and just got notified I won the basketball poster. lol

We don't have those.

It also occurred to me that it would be cool to have on Austin marathon day (the route goes down my block).

Received a call from Rice today and it seems that the basketball poster I won has a rigid backing on it and due to its size would cost almost $250.00 just to ship it to me !!!! If anyone in the Houston area would like it send me a PM. Since I bought it to help Rice, if you will donate 1/4 of what I paid for it back to athletics it will be yours.
