Those graphics have not aged, but the concept is still stupid fun.

Wow! Memories!

Had Marshall left the MAC before its debut?

Had not heard that POD song in a long time, either!

I have seen an intro video I think from about the same era that Nebraska used, highlighting various landmarks from around the state like Chimney Rock and it too ended up at their (Memorial) Stadium. It was so bad yet so good as well.

Can be easy to forget how much technology has improved for video/design in 15 or so years.

On the flipside, it's been awesome to see how well the Stranger Things promo team has done in making all of their hype videos etc look like they are from the mid 80s.

I have memories of this video being played during the 2005 basketball season and Marshall was still in the MAC then. They also used it for the 2005 football season. Then during the 06 basketball season, they switched to the video of a Bobcat walking around campus before switching back to the billboard video the following year. Here's the football version of the campus video.

If Memory serves and honestly pieces of 98 and 99 are a bit blurry didn’t the Bobcat get a bit feisty or slip away for a little while in the TCOM building ?

Is there a way to watch this if you're not on Twitter ?

You will have to allow java from twitter.com and from twimg.com in order to see it. I usually don't, but allowed them temporarily, and was able to see it.
