I just got this email:
"SAVE THE DATE
Special Announcement
Wednesday, September 7, 2022
5:30 - 7:30 PM
The Virginia Beer Company
Join W&M Athletics at VBC for a special announcement!"
Rampant speculation time!
My initial guess is it's something about the new Kaplan arena

All jokes aside, I don't anticipate much.
An announcement on campus = formal announcement
An announcement at Virginia Beer Co = sponsorships, partnerships, or something like that.

I’m thinking we signed Angie Dickinson as sponsor for one of our basketball games. At HT, there will be an Angie Dickinson look-a-like contest (the late 70s Angie). Also, after each missed FT from opponent, the PA will play that seductive, velvet like laugh she had. Maybe she will throw up opening jump ball.
Just a hunch.
It seems like all of our teams are using silver/grey uniforms this year, I wonder if it could be something apparel related?
But I agree it won't be anything majorly groundbreaking, just wanted to pass along the info
Given the location, I wonder if VBC is getting the beer concession for Kaplan and Zable. The owners, Chris Smith and Robby Willey, are Tribe guys, so I'm sure they'd love to be formally connected (and making some sales).

They've had the concession for Zable since Tribe Tavern started.

Sorry, I thought that Precarious had both Zable and Kaplan.

VBC has had the Zable/football “tavern” from the outset. Precarious has had Kaplan.
Hopefully they’ll announce we can bring beers to our seats going forward.

Thats my guess, since its been done elsewhere with success. I would greatly applaud that decision.

Do you mean look like Angie D in her late 70s or her in the late 70s?
Maybe both to spread the demographic around.
Based on the venue, this seems to have low probability of high importance

We've officially changed our third color to "beer keg silver"

Is the venue reason to think it might be NIL related?

"Hi, I'm the new freshman qb for the Tribe, and when I turn 21 I'm heading right over to VBC for a nice, frosty Saving Daylight. VBC, Williamsburg's finest brew! Probably, since I'm only 18."

I don't see anything on social media, so I'm guessing whatever was announced is nothing special
