A pair of digital billboards in the Valley read “SELL THE TEAM” and “#BIDWILLOUT” in an effort by Arizona Cardinals fans to voice their frustrations with the state of the franchise and owner Michael Bidwill.

A fundraiser started by Arizona sports influencer Nathan Kropp, who goes by Mr. AZ Sports on social media, had garnered nearly $4,000 by midday Wednesday with Sun Angel Collective co-founder Scott Harkey committing to match.

By Thursday morning, the GoFundMe page had raised over $6,000. The page states that a goal of the campaign is to raise $10,000 to buy traditional billboard space.

One of the digital billboards is located along Loop 303 near the US 60 in Surprise, while the other sits along the Loop 202 at Alma School Road near State Route 87 in the Easy Valley.

The Cardinals are 1-4 this season. Arizona has not won a playoff game since the 2015 season, and the team is on a nine-game losing streak at home.
