I sure hope the crowd is a lot more lively then last sundays crowd, there also were a lot of empty seats around us in the lower bowl , I guess when some people don"t recognize the name of your opponent they just stay home. This game is a very important one and I would hope our turnout and enthusiasm reflects it.

I expect a little more then the 5000 to 5500 last STOOPID Sunday. With the Bears playing later AND the weather not as nice this STOOPID Sunday should draw 6000-6500.

But the season/advance ticket sales will be 9K generating lottsa money....:)

Sundaaaay...Sundaaaay... Sundaaaay.....be there at beautiful US 30 dragway. Anyone recall those commercials?

You evidently go to all the games. This Sunday watch and listen what happens during timeouts and realize how hard it is for fans to get "lively". For those who want everyone to stand more often, maybe the band can play the fight song more than twice a game.
 
I thought timeouts were organized, orchestrated, and planned. The band is told when they can play (and when they can not). The other times are filled with advertisements, right? I guess I don't pay enough attention during the timeouts... I have my mind on other things. :)

Maybe we should have a BradleyFans.com airhorn...


That would wake some ppl up.



Sadly though, I am starting to believe that they should market Quick Change against a craptastic opponent as some of THOSE fans just seem to come sometimes for the halftime shows....


How pathetic....:roll:

You're at the games and you don't know what goes on during timeouts? If I believe that will you tell me another one? Not blaming the band, except for not playing the fight song more often, but I wish just once they could play right over the worthless announcements.

I'm pretty sure that's exactly why Quick Change is scheduled for a Tuesday night game against Presbyterian.

I'm one of THOSE fans who happen to enjoy good halftime entertainment and it can't get much better than Quick Change. Maybe the Civic Center ask for QC to be scheduled the night of a weaker opponent. They sure cut down on the halftime concession business.

I happen to enjoy Quick Change as well. However, your theory only holds up if the other 4000+ that bought tickets actually show up for the Sunday game.

If they don't show up, that's their loss not ours. Should be more Tuesday. No Bear game to use as an excuse.

Sunday games SUCK! Civic Center was dark last night, Rivs on the road.
ILLINI played Presby last night.
We play this game Saturday night=2,000 extra in the seats.
Fans at the game are more important than "better Refs"
Somebody wake up, after the Low Sunday attendances, Sundays no MO!

I agree, don"t understand why this game was not played last night as saturday night games draw the most fans.

Hear here...... and I'd say 3k extra on a Sat vs Sunday. Instead of 5000 fans (4500 sleeping) we'd have 8500K with only 2500 sleeping becuase they didn't just finsih a big Sunday meal.


I'd like to here the "official" reason for these Sunday games.....the last game COULDN'T be for better refs becuase they were Mo-Valley guys.

I have stopped questioning the schedule of our team. Scheduling is extremely hard especially when you do not control the venue. Also, you need to look at from Wofford's point of view.
