Wish I could get my hands on one of those, even if he is in blue.

Get a green marker and color his blazer (or jacket) green 03-yes

I would like a bobblehead giveaway instead of shirts, which will be for the upcoming game this Saturday against North Texas

What kills me about the shirt giveaways and "Whiteout/Greenout" is that 2/3 thirds of the fans don't put the shirts on. They hang on to them and sit there wearing the blue denim shirt they wore in. Makes me nuts.

My parents came in town for the North Texas white out game last year. Mom made us all put on the shirts!

I understand a White Out like last year or Gold Out or even a Gray Out since it's our alt football and basketball uni color - especially with the BIRMINGHAM uniform.
But a GREEN OUT against the MEAN GREAN is dumb; however, I do enjoy leaning on the Here Be Dragons. Could sell a lot of merch with that phrase same with #FireBreathersOnly

The problem with shirts is they are all one size. Kids are swallowed in them so they won't put them on, I am 2XL so I can't put it on or use it so it just sits there

As anti "color outs" as I am, I will address this. There have been times in the past when they simply draped the shirts on the seats...those were all one size,

BUT-

They weren't all one size the last time. After entering there was a table along the concourse where you were given the size you needed.

You must have gotten to the arena close to tip. When I came in, I know they had MD-XXL.
