I was a Marching Crimson Piper so I am still connected to TU.

Should you, or your heirs, ever decide to sell with this flapping crimson red flag, any and every investor will either walk away completely or beat you to death on price when you go to sell. 

On the week of January 18, I'll be making another trip to the city of Birmingham, AL (Go Crimson Tide !!!!)

I agree with @Dawn Anastasi - a really bright color, like a crimson or cobalt blue or a kelly green, or a very dark color such as very dark brown or even black will pull the focus away from the -ahem- neutral milky chocolatey poopy brown glaze.
