"We can't win without Kane?... That's just like your opinion man"

"Kane really tied the room together"

 

[Martin Riggs]

Too bad they aren't still on the team. We could've done "Frolik it Dude. Let's go Bolland"

 

[hisgirlfriday]

I'll probably be able to help create avys this year. I'm a firm believer in the KISS system. But if we pick something crazy, I'll roll with it.

Yay. Thanks so much.

 

[member 151739]

Okay, everyone, we should really get the ball rolling on this. How are the slides going to be for the bandwagon choice? Ideas, ideas!

1. Statement such as "Lifelong fan since 2010"
2. Best bandwagon ever
3. 2015 playoffs

Yeah?

[No Fun Shogun]

Now, I won't be doing these, as I have no skill for it, but basic ideas for the avatar are three picture gifs. I'll break them down by A, B, C, with the pictures in bold....

A) Picture of an empty United Center Remember when the Blackhawks had the longest Stanley Cup drought?
B) Packed UC or banner raising or Toews lifting the Cup Neither do we!
C) Best Bandwagon 8 Years Running!

A) Toews lifting the Cup in Philly Why do they call it the "Original Six?" There were 30 teams when this happened....
B) Scene from one of our parades Fan for life since 6/9/2010!
C) Best Bandwagon 8 5 Years Running!

A) Confused picture of any Blackhawk .... what do you mean, "Some teams don't make the playoffs?"
B) Grinning picture of same Blackhawk I wouldn't know what that's like.
C) Best Bandwagon 8 7 Years Running!

A) Picture of the pig nosed Toews mural Toews

C) Best Bandwagon 8 Years Running!

A) Jim Cornelison singing Anthems are better...
B) UC crowd ... when 20,000+ are involved.
C) Best Bandwagon 8 Years Running!

Image C would need to be some type of custom pic/logo shared throughout.

The ones with the crossed out # of years have to be obviously done that way, too.

 

[Ace Rothstein]

Image C should be the pic of Q grabbing his junk from last year.

 

[IU Hawks fan]

I like your thinking, good excuse to include one of the greatest pics ever.

[member 151739]

A.) Picture of Kessel: Kessel is better than Kane
B.) Picture of Kane with Conn Smythe: Kane is only good because of Toews
C.) Best bandwagon 8 years running!

 

[hisgirlfriday]

So this is super nitpicky, but are we totally settled on

Best Bandwagon 8 Years Running!

for our tagline?

The phrasing just seems not quite right to me but I'm not sure what would be better.

Maybe...

Bandwagon Jumping for Eight Years Running

???

Also another one of these avatars could be

A)So I bet you've been a lifelong Blackhawks fan... NOT!

B) Bandwagon on, Wayne. Bandwagon on, Garth.

C) The tagline

 

[member 151739]

I like that one.

 

[Man Reay]

Image C should be the pic of Q grabbing his junk from last year.

Heh-heh..."Got your bandwagon right here, pal!"

 

[JaegerDice]

A.) Picture of Kessel: Kessel is better than Kane
B.) Picture of Kane with Conn Smythe: Kane is only good because of Toews
C.) Best bandwagon 8 years running!

You could just as soon have a gif that scrolled through the entire roster of the team, with the static tag 'I'm only good because of....'

That's HFboards logic when it comes to the Hawks anyway.

 

[Voight]

No. 3

 

[Voight]

Maybe something to do with the Demi-God?

 

[Any Colour You Like]

So we're doing Best Bandwagon?

 

[Nothingman*]

Do a bandwagon with a hop on hop off bus or something like that. With a hawks banner on it or one of those buses from the parade like that.

Or if using the Waynes World 'Blackhawks Fan Says What?'

 

[Martin Riggs]

Do something Perfect Strangers themed with Kane as Balki and Toews as Larry.

 

[Any Colour You Like]

Font is City Bold.

 

[Any Colour You Like]

Very rough conceptual version I made:
