More Seats Being Added to Carver Arena for Wednesday's Game

[tornado]

Expecting a complete sellout, Bradley has requested some extra, temporary seating be added.

This news release from Bradley also adds that
"Bradley is averaging 9,561 fans per game through 11 games,
but with a strong finish could set the single-season record for total attendance.

(ps-- can we hear from those who doubted that the excitement is back?)

Awesome, great job by BU and staff!

 

[real fan]

Great crowd sat. night ; I would think after seeing that game more people would come reguarly and we could ave 11000 ; they are fun to watch.

Gotta fill as many seats with BU fans so the Redbirdies don't get in!

This is good news considering the ISU/BU series hasn't been much as of late. It would be nice to see both teams restore the rivalry to what it was in the '80s and '90s.

Hey...we've done OUR part. :lol:

Sorry, but I never want ISU to be that good.

I'd rather ISU be good. First, it makes our wins over them more satisfying. And second, if they're not just playing the role of spoiler then beating us won't make their season. I hate the fact that we could make their season with a loss, and how that would cripple our at-large bid chances.

The rivalry is at its peak when both teams are good....

Part of why there is a continous subtle shift to siu being the main rival.
