Okay, so I know this may seem really stupid to some people, but I think that it is just another example of how UWM doesn't understand that branding and putting their name out there is a good thing. So I love fat heads. I have a derrick rose one and a Paul Konerko one at my house They are great and really make a room into an awesome sports room.
Anyway so I never thought anything of Fathead not having UW-Milwaukee stuff seeing that most places don't carry mid major school gear, but today I was just browsing through their college stuff and I realized that we are the ONLY school in the Horizon league that doesn't have our logo on the site. And these aren't just lame logos. They are high quality images, Usually one large (when i say large picture a 5'x7' logo) and multiple smaller logos printed on high quality vinyl stickem/static sheets that can be removed an reused over and over again. Basically it looks extremely professional like its popping out of the wall.
So yeah, just another thing that UWM has completely missed the boat for. I talked to customer service and it turns out that they turned Fathead down. (Don't ask why, I couldn't figure it out either seeing that it is free publicity and they get paid for the rights to use the image.)
So then I keep looking and I realize that they also have fatheads for 5 of the other UW system schools, and that's other than Madison and Green Bay (La Crosse, Platteville, Stevens Point, Stout, and Whitewater)
Sometimes I just don't get the School Officials' logic.
Well anyway, they said that the last time they asked uwm to do it was way back when they first started doing college fatheads when they asked all the D1 conference members. And the customer service lady said that if enough people go to this page and request it then they will ask UWM again.
So here is the link: www.fathead.com/college/
Type a few random letters in the search bar so that the no results thing comes up and fill in the little form. I think it would be a really thing to have available for Milwaukee fans. Yeah they are expensive, but after i got one as a present I realized how worth it they are.
Here are the links to the other horizon league schools and the other UW schools:
