More than 6,000 Baylor fans participated in the Stadium Bricks Campaign between December 2012 and March 2014, raising upwards of $1.6 million for the project and accounting for more than 7,200 bricks.

10. BUGWB. 34 different bricks mentioned the Baylor Golden Wave Marching Wand. 9. "Future Bear." Families thinking ahead included the names of their future Bears, with 36 specifically referring to them this way. 8. Philippians 4:13. Some form of "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" appears on 38 bricks. 7. RG3 references. 50 bricks either thanked Baylor's first Heisman winner or quoted one of his catchphrases; "Baylor we are, Baylor we'll always be" was most popular. 6. Jeremiah 29:11. The most popular Bible verse, this Scripture about the Lord's plans for the future appears on 54 bricks. 5. Lines from Baylor anthems. Primarily from the alma mater and fight song, 60 bricks include lines like "march forever down the years" and "that good old Baylor Line." 4. Baylor Proud. A total of 245 bricks used this phrase directly; even more made some mention of being proud to be a Bear. 3. "Go Bears." Whether referencing the popular cheer or just a straightforward proclamation, this appears on 359 bricks. 2. Other Bible verses. Including the two listed separately, 272 different verses appeared on a total of 610 bricks, meaning almost 10% of bricks featured a Scripture. 1. Sic 'em. Simple (and requiring relatively few characters), more than 2,400 of the 7,200 bricks -- essentially 1 in 3 -- included a "sic 'em" alongside their name or other message.

Sic ’em, brick campaign supporters!

[If you're wondering if it's too late to order your own stadium brick, the answer is "yes" -- that campaign has ended. However, bricks are available on other parts of campus; click here for more information.]
