The Gratitude Wall, by Happy Valley United
WEEK 5 - AT NORTHWESTERN
“We're not going to win at all cost. We're going to win the right way. We're going to win with guys that do things the right way, that carry themselves the right way on the field, but they carry themselves right off the field.”Matt Campbell · Marshall Week Press Conference

A wall of thank-you messages from Penn State fans - one wall for every game week of the season. Give any amount from $5, write your message, and it goes up with your name on it. Nobody ever sees an amount. Wednesday night a Penn State voice reads three of them out loud, and then the wall locks and never changes again. After a win it is a thank you. After a loss it is a message the team needs more.

This wall locks Wednesday 8:00 PM ET

It locks and never changes

When a week closes it is sealed: never edited, never deleted. Every wall from every game stays right here with your line exactly where you put it.

Three of them get read

Wednesday night a Penn State voice reads three messages off the wall on camera and thanks every fan on it. Then the wall locks and starts being history.

It goes in the picture

In December every message from the season becomes one image, printed and hung. You are in it because you were there.
