Greys Bus

[bardown]

I heard on the radio today the Greys have a Kunkle Bus (Wrapped up with the greys logo) Am I missing something or does the Attack not use Kunkle for their transportation as well? Talk about a slap in the face if they send the Attack the Greys Bus! Are we the only team in the "O" that does not have a wrapped bus? Could the Attack not have come to some sort of marketing agreement with Kunkle before the Greys (who have again been running for about 6 months) Talk about missing the bus!

10 grand to wrap a bus, or @10 grand to replace the boards in the Lum......good choice

lot of money wrapping a bus for maybe one year....

Not an official part of the uniform.


Franchise pride and individual pride.

Worth it?

Conduct resembling a first class outfit (real or apparent).

Worth it?

Advertising money could perhaps be better used elsewhere.

Perhaps a fundraiser is appropriate if anyone cares badly enough.

I would donate to that....

Like Watcher said..the impression of a real organization...I think it would give the boys a sense of pride to step into the Attack bus as opposed to scouring the parking lot making sure they don't board with the Attack Pack....

It looks like the Grey's management is trying to make a go of it. If their willing to spend 10K on a bus as perhaps a marketing tool to lure players, I would suspect the buck don't stop there, otherwise it's wasted cash for a bus. I would think they are out recruiting some good talent and willing to pay for such. Hope it works out for them.

The new ownership has had some success in bringing the tier 2 Villanova knights from last place to a pretty good team in a few short seasons. Here is hoping they can work some of their magic here with the Greys.

This group are serious hockey people, Arsenault and company are making big financial commitments to these teams. Is there any affiliation between the attack and greys or only within their organization it seems they have their bases covered with the tiered system they have in place.

I think you will see an attack wrap bus , before long, and an affilation in a years time with The Arsenault hockey Group. This would benefit the Attack and the Greys and hopefully produce a good brand of hockey for the fans in owen sound.

Too late for that it was announced last week affiliation agreement in place with Brampton Battalion.

I'm sure the $10K was a great investment; I might start going to home games again; if they have the bus there I can sit in the parking lot and look at it for a couple of hrs.

If you read the post I said a year from now, the affilation with brampton was only one year 2010 2011 season

You guys shouldn't care about a bus.

It's what they market on ice and behind the bench and in the office.

But, it proves that the marketing guy for the Greys should be the Marketing guy for the Attack.
