Bill Clinton should be in Kray Slayson's corner cheering him on

The fact that the biggest worldwide draw a UFC match has ever had on pay-per-view is less than the daily viewership of Larry King does not engender confidence in its widespread appeal, especially given that that's made up of mainly younger, and relatively less politically active people. Compare that to the literally hundreds of millions of people who have seen a Rocky movie.

If we want something that makes sense to a general audience, then boxing is the way to go.

Ever been to a bar on UFC night?

A Buffalo Wild Wings?

Bad comparison.

No I haven't. Neither have most people.

On fight night, the sports bar i work at is COMPLETELY packed when we have UFC PPV on. The # of PPV purchases may only be a mil+ but the amount pf people watching it is A LOT more.

Has the Paul campaign got wind of this?
A commercial would be great attacking Grayson for this DC Fundraiser while he rails that he is Mister Kentuckian.

hi everyone. been trolling a while and finally joined last night. not sure if you're looking for outside input, but i had an idea. Frey basin's fundraiser is not only in D.C., but also $500 a plate to attend. So, maybe those of us in SoKy could get together and have a $5 fish fry? The crappy part is that it's on a weds., and turnout could be low. What do you guys think?

 

[Matt Collins]

A few thoughts about this:


1- Does this give too much attention and name recognition to Trey? Most KY voters don't even know he exists.


2- I think the very top text of the page needs to explain why we are doing this - as a counter assault to the "estabhlishment" backing AshTrey.

3- The amount of money is also unrealistic. We had over 2 months to plan a moneybomb and were only able to garner a few hundred k. We will not be able to do better than that in less than a month's time.



I say we should set the goal for $1 million total. We are close to $780k which would only leave $220k (still tough but a bit more realistic than $500k). If we reach $1 million before the next qtr, we can be the first campaign to announce that we have over $1million thus marginalizing AshTrey's fundraising for the qtr.

 

[Matt Collins]

another idea....

in the center of the ring could be logo on the mat.....an Elephant siloette (Rand's corner)....and a Rhino (Trey's corner).....going head to head...

very powerful symbolism

Make it Mitch McConnell

Matt, stop using the size bb code.

I agree with everything Matt just said. #2. Needs to be a no brainer and front and center for the casual observer.

Lastly, I think the artwork and concept is wonderful, but would even the casual person realize that this is a money bomb type fundraiser with those banners??? Seems to need some type of instant information that someone could see and easily understand in less than 3 seconds that this is a money bomb type fundraiser.

LUV the vertical banner though Josh. Graphics are awesome. For my taste, move the heads of the guys up a little, and make room for stacked "Money Bomb Cage Match" or something at the bottom. Beautiful job though man. Best graphic design and creativity I've seen in a a long time.

Thanks!

Added 'Money Bomb Vs DC Fundraiser' text to the vertical graphic.

Hey Josh, it would be cool if you could add the pixel size to the description of the banners on the website.


I'm adding one to randpaulgraphs now but it's a pain to have to guess the pixel size.

View the image at it's root location.

i.e. http://kentuckyfight.com/images/tallbanner.jpg

When on the page, simply right click on the image and select properties.

It will tell you the pixel size.

I'll go ahead and do this anyways.

Thanks for putting up a banner, I will add you to the coalition page.

That's exactly what I just did..hah

I'm trying to get a banner made for rand paul graphs so you can put it up on the money bomb site.

 

[JoshLowry]

Let me know if you need any help.
