Doesn't matter what you wear as long as you're there and loud. I'll be wearing black. Go Apps.

UNCC hasn't said what units they're wearing.

My alma mater once asked me to wear white, which is not a school color, and got student-athletes to shame dissenters when they didn't want to.

I'll wear whatever I want to.
Let this statement of truth wash over you, brethren. The White Out is far and away the dumbest and most tone deaf decision in the Post-Cobb world I can recall at the moment.

I don't see how anyone can get upset at someone deciding to wear a school color at a game. Except Black Saturday at home... come on.

Supposedly, the white out was instigated by the team members themselves...at least that was what was posted on this YC Message board.

The "Gold thing" is pretty ridiculous.

I suspect the "gold thing" is an attempt at having a visual impact for both the streaming audience on the screen and the players on the field as a contrast to whatever moldy green they wear. Gold will standout better and be more obvious from both vantage points, further illustrating the disparity between the number of App fans and Commuter fans.

For those that get on board with the idea, rock and roll with your gold! For those that have game day traditions and embrace the black of the Black & Gold, wear it proudly and yell loudly!

We are one App Sate, both Black AND Gold!

This shaping up to be a Left Twix vs Right Twix argument.

I have one gold App shirt that I got for the last gold out thing and haven't worn it since...so I'll wear it tomorrow to amortize the cost over more games.

App fans can never go wrong wearing black, anywhere. I do have the gold “Together we Rise” shirt and my Gold Pro Combat Jersey...... all the rest of my gear is black.

Me too. Upon inventory, I have a lot more black shirts than I thought I did, but just one gold one that I got for the last gold out. I will still be wearing my black hat and black underwear though. I am still telling my UNCC grad friend that I am brining with that they are all wearing black. :idea:

Since this will be their largest crowd ever to see a football game. I hope everyone will consider bringing in App State banners and flags (w/o pole) to hang and hold up around the stadium. This will make it harder for them to Photoshop App State memorabilia out of the pics which they will most certainly try to use in UNCC marketing.

UNCC just released a youtube video showing that their team is going to wear green jersey and pants with a white helmet. I love how our entire fan base freaked out after seeing ONE promotional image of them with black jerseys. Knee jerk reactions are kind of our thing, I guess. I also can't imagine still being upset by the white-out. It was ONE GAME and it actually turned out much better than I expected (and WAAYYY better than our weak attempt at pinstriping the stadium). If you're honest with yourself you know that black-outs don't really create an effect that even comes close to the uniformity of a white-out. The players wanted to wear all white and they wanted the fans to do the same, but feel free to spin whatever conspiracy theory helps you sleep at night. If white is so antithetical to Appalachian State then why do some people still lobby for the white block A?

I have one white App shirt, one gold and numerous black shirts. While black is still my favorite since App requested gold I will be wearing gold. Leaving shortly for Charlotte. Go APPS!!!
