PrintAlright listen up people, this Thursday, April 21st, show your love of the Kings by wearing purple all day. Purple shirt, Purple ties, Purple pants, Purple hats, Purple socks. Purple Everything.
Pro Tips:
- Write your E-mails in Purple Font!
- Ladies, paint your nails Purple!
- Eat exclusively Purple foods (Hope you like Eggplant and Grapes)!
- Dye your hair Purple!
- Blare Jimi Hendrix's "Purple Haze" from your car stereos while driving!
- Get a Purple Tattoo of the word "Purple"!
Seriously though, Thursday is Purpleday. Tell your friends, family and co-workers. Spread the word via Facebook and Twitter. On Thursday, take photos and upload them on the Here We Stay Facebook page (which you should "Like" if you haven't already).
Ready... Go!

I like the tattoo idea
Nothing like a huge purple tattoo of the word “purple” to show your fandom! :)
"I've gone back to a time when dinosaurs weren't just confined to zoos!"
"Ralph, Jesus did not have wheels."
"One word: coffee. One problem: where do you get it?" "Anywhere! You get it anywhere!" "Wrong! You get it in my coffee vending machine. 38th and 6th in the basement of the K-Mart. You just go downstairs, you get the key from David, and BOOM! You plug in the machine and..." "You're done."
I won't be going anywhere Thursday, so it won't matter,
but I’ll definitely pull out all my purple stuff.

Not sure...
..if me wearing Purple to work tomorrow over the other side of the planet will achieve anything — but I’m gonna do it anyway.
Hell, I’ll even wear a tie. That way, when I get the usual “Are you going to a job interview/funeral” I can tell them all about Here We Stay!

Man, we have quite a few Kings fans in Australia.
Awesome.

If Australia wasn't so damn huge
I would suggest an Aussie Kings Fan Barbecue. Anyone for a Purple sausage. (hmm on second thoughts, that just sounds wrong!)

My sausage was purple once... I thought that whole "longer then 4 hours" was a joke...
Hard work beats talent when talent is hardly working...
If it wouldn't land me in jail,
I’d buy a few hundred buckets of purple paint and go after the Capitol.

Several teams wear purple
I believe our color is burkle… remember, the exact mix of black and purple? Tomorrow I’m wearing burkle.
I drive a service truck around town all day
I was thinking of getting some of that spirit paint & painting the truck up. Can someone post a list of all the websites I should promote? Thanks.

If only we could paint the Tower Bridge or the Pyramid
anyone have a huge paintbrush?
put me in, Coach
Soo I fully support this idea
But was wondering why Thursday? Wouldn’t Friday, when the league officials are actually in Sacto be a more adamant way to show that support…..?
They're here Thursday and Friday.

Anybody know when their flight arrives?
I would be up for a trip to airport to welcome them…
I didn't major in Common F-cking Sense, but ...
A lot of people are asking the same
and I can tell you from my side, we have no clue when that’s happening. Also, KJ said everything will be closed to the media. I doubt any details of when they arrive or where they’re staying or where these meetings are going to take place, will be leaked.
"Children want what they want when they want it." ... Andy Sims
wouldn't be shocked at all if it's the Sheraton or the Hyatt (depends on if it's the City or NBA doing the logistics)

NBA or Bennett's staff. I really doubt the City does that.
It isn’t like it would be too hard to call a couple hotels tomorrow and ask to be put through to Mr. Bennett’s room. The first one who puts you through is the place..
I didn't major in Common F-cking Sense, but ...
Actually
if they plan on having meetings at city hall would think they’d just book the hotel across Cesar Chavez

The Citizen, I believe
I work right accross from it so if anyone finds out let me know. ;)
"Children want what they want when they want it." ... Andy Sims
Definitely
We (Here We Stay) woud love to organize something but we also understand that without any concrete details and time to plan it, anything we do could just account to nothing. We’ll see what happens in the coming days
"Children want what they want when they want it." ... Andy Sims
LA Time has some information
Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson will meet with members of the NBA’s relocation committee in the state capital beginning Thursday to market his city’s ability to keep the Sacramento Kings and construct a new sports-and-entertainment complex.
Also says they may tour the area down at the railyards…
I didn't major in Common F-cking Sense, but ...
He is definitely looking at the railyard site, no way he'd come all the way over here and not look at it.
Hope David Taylor has a conference room available way up high somewhere so they can look over that massive site during their meetings.
I actually would be more curious about whether he also looks at Arco.

Wish I was in Sacramento so everyone could understand why I'm wearing purple..
Eh, it’s all part of being a fan I guess.
S/O to Fox40
They have their logo in purple already and a little ticker under it saying “Keep the Kings #herewepurple”

There's a Sac travel co that changed its logo to purple, too.
Ships and Trips. It’s normally blue and white.

I had an associate tell me that my shirt was really more of a French blue. I corrected him when I dropped my drawers and showed him my balls – now that’s a French blue. Vivé la revolution!
