OT Nebraskas new slogan
- Thread starter Baxter48_rivals204143
- Start date
I'll clarify, Just heard this morning Nebraskas department or tourism introduced their new slogan yesterday
The wife and I don't really care for it what's everyone else thinking

I like it. It isn't for everyone. Keep those dips in the west coast there. We don't want them coming here, and ruining our state like they did California. lol
The misspelling and lack of punctuation in the op here changes the slogan more than just a little. Funny but c'mon man.
Nobody cares, I think. I've never thought differently about a state based on their slogan.
Who cares about a slogan, unless we can annex the Rocky Mountains from Colorado or something, we're never going to be a major tourist state.
I'm just shaking my head that we actually paid someone $450,000 to come up with this. I'm in the wrong business.

Man, this is really not good for your recruiting. Maybe it's good for the state, but absolutely awful for your football program. Other coaches will be sending recruits this material constantly.
This is the exact opposite of what young people these days want to see for their college experience. Moos should pay these people another half million to make this go away.

Honestly, Nebraska can be a tourist state if two things can happen:
1) Legalize casinos
2) Get rid of the helmet law
Is it any worse than “ Omaha. We dont coast”!
Also, be careful. Threads like this will surely bring in even more middle floride college golden knight trolls

It's beyond stupid that states still don't require helmets. They're not mandatory in IL and it makes me cringe every time I see somebody on the road without one. Begging to end up dead.
If people won't come to a state because they'd have to decrease their chance of dying, let them stay where they are. I know zero people who ever said they wouldn't go someplace because of seat belt laws...but maybe they all died in crashes.
1) Do people ever travel to anywhere other than Vegas because of the legalized casinos?
2) I could be wrong, but I don't think we're losing out on a lot of tourist action because of a helmet law.
Plenty of people in Omaha and Lincoln go across the river to the "boats" in CB but that's not tourism so much as it would be just keeping the money in-state.. Doesn't make sense to me to ban casinos or weed any more and lose out on all that revenue. You're not stopping the people who really want to do it, you're just missing out on the taxes.
1 - yes, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Jersey all get people to travel to their states to gamble
2 - bikers purposely avoid Nebraska on their way to motorcycle rallies like Sturgis.
They are really stupid - but on the bright side they are usually quite good organ donors.
Oh stop! Every recruit already thinks that they will be stuck behind a combine while trying to walk into the locker room because it is surrounded by cornfields, this slogan will have ZERO affect on the football program.
Maybe good for the state, but awful for the football program? A winless football team spreads way more bad publicity nationally, then a marketing campaign that will be shown in the region...
There's really no good reason to go through Nebraska to get there, is there? I25, I29, I90 don't go through Nebraska.
I don't disagree, but if you wanna be that stupid.. I guess it is natural selection.. I'm a big time skier, and feel the same way about helmets on the mountain. Yes I grew up skiing without one, but hit my head numerous times. I will always wear one, but if people don't wanna wear them, and they get hurt it is their fault. I don't think the mountain should require them, but it's their own damn fault no matter what happens.
Born and raised on the mean streets of North Omaha where rap/dance battling happened daily. I first "got served" when I was three years old. This slogan doesn't fit the entire state. Not for us hustlers trying to make a living running the game.
You forgot Iowa. You should see the line of Icelandic people at the casino in Riverside.
"Nebraska...at least we're not Iowa"
As a conservative & more importantly a "Constitutionalist" I do not understand how other so called conservatives can be for the helmet law, against casinos, and against legalizing weed.
Conservatives are supposed to be for less government and more personal responsibility. Its not the gov. job to mandate everyone wear a helmet. Its stupid not to wear one but if you don't want to that's on you. Same for casinos and weed. If you want to blow you money on those go ahead, that's your decision. Once you do it though don't ask me for a hand out or help if or when your life is in shambles though.

If the state really did pay that either two things need to happen. 1- I need to start my own company that is a slogan maker. or 2- Someone in the state needs to be fired for agreeing to pay that. Better idea is to have an open high school competition where the winner gets 4 years of college tuition free. That's a hell of a lot cheaper!
Other people are affected when people "choose" to do these things.
1) New Jersey I can understand. Maybe it's just me, but I would never travel to those other states to gamble. Maybe I'd gamble while I was there, but gambling wouldn't be the reason that drew me in. Also are they bringing people in that are a few states away or are they just drawing in border towns that across state lines? Like Omaha to Iowa type situation.
2) I'm sure some bikers do, but do majority of biker avoid Nebraska? I can't imagine Nebraska would gain much if bikers all of a sudden started riding through Nebraska.
Again, those guys aren’t for freedom of choice. They’re for legislation of morality according to the Bible. Conservatives don’t want less government, they just want to redistribute it’s focus. If you want less government in all aspects, fiscal and social, that’s libertarian.
Right, I was being specific towards tourism.
Does legalized gambling/casinos or weed cost the state as well? Very small sample size, but I look at Council Bluffs and what a crap hole.
The fact that there will be 90k in the stadium to watch something named Bethune-cook and a zero or one win team tells you all you need to know about the tourist destinations available in the state.

Nebraska: the trolls from florida and the big 10 love coming here. You will too
On the bright side, at least we know what the folks who came up with the BIG legends / leaders division titles are up to nowadays.
