[Deptheads] Big FFG Banners

[Eric Burgess]

I imagine we can find a cheaper alternative since this is only for this
show. The $80 investment wouldn't be worth it. I'm going to check with a few
people I know that build setups like this for local soccer teams (I coached
last season but someone else put a similar frame together) and I'll see if
there is one I can borrow.

Tim - It's usually pretty common for hotels to allow that sort of thing and
their walls often are such that they allow pin-ups. Can you please check
with them?
