Uneblinstu's Post-game Chatter, Forward to the ____ edition

[uneblinstu]

Sorry for the confusion last night, guys. Never fear, they'll return for the start of the regular season.

[hhcmatt]

We had over 10k show up for the exhibition this year.

Last year it was 7.8k.

Two years ago it was 6.6k

[uneblinstu]

One concern I have is that they don't play with nearly the same energy as they do when Parker is on the floor. I'd be tempted to start him just for that reason. If they can start the game with that energy, I think it could help against slow starts.

Why stop there? Three years ago, in Doc's last year, we played Doane in the exhibition and attendance was 4,127.

Huskers.com is sort of a mess right now. I'd assume we had more people at this exhibition than we had a lot of actual games 3 years ago.

And half of them were Doane kids. You know Crete is about a six away from Lincoln.

You can drink a whole six-pack on the drive between Crete and Lincoln?  Impressive!

I've been to conference games with fewer fans in attendance than there were last night.

Did when we (some Wesleyan football players) went down to do our part in continuing that rivalry, back in 84.

I was there and sure didn't look like over 10,000 people there.  It was so scattered out that hard to tell but sure looked closer to 7,000 or maybe 8,000 people.  Either way, pretty decent crowd for exhibition game.

From the box score:

10314 Actual Attendance

15366 Tickets Sold 

 

I'd agree that it looked less than 10k though since they're scanning these things with barcode readers I'm not sure why it would be inaccurate.

I don't know why the actual attendance would be inaccurate either. I think it's hard to judge in that building though. There were quite a few holes in the lower bowl. From my perspective, looking up through the smoke, it seemed like the 2nd and 3rd decks were pretty full (maybe 75%). When I initially saw the 10,314 number, I thought it seemed high, but my conclusion is that it's hard to judge at PBA.

[Silverbacked1]

I am going to count next game.

They do scan the tickets so it should be accurate.  I totally agree it is hard to judge in the building.  I could guess pretty close over at Devaney but can't seem to guess at PBA.  Just always looks like there are a lot less people than their really are.  That for the confirmation.

[Huskerpapa]

It is called an E.X.H.I.B.I.T.I.O.N game.  Players will now have a baseline to work from.  We can all be thankful that this may have been the worst game of the year.  Relaxxxxxx, we will grow, mature and improve from this point forward.

[Row6Seat10]

I am going to count next game.

If it helps you count, the 100 level or the bottom bowl if you will, holds 8,000 fans when full.

[jimmykc]

Remember those days (not so long ago) when people at the top of the arena would be invited to come down and fill up the empty good seats. Wonder if any of us will ever see those days again? I hope not.

I hate the new Husker.com  web page, They lost all of the archive's from last year.

Last I checked last years baseball games and all of the winter audio was gone. Unless it is back in the last couple of days. this is all that is left of the archived files.http://www.huskers.com/AudioArchives.dbml

I concur with the poster who said that benny brings more energy to the floor. I think I said that in the in game thread.

Maybe you're the poster you were thinking of.  I agree with myself all the time.

lol...it was a small challenge for me...being a lifelong Husker fan...but also a 2011 (went to the Lincoln Campus) Doane Graduate...who now serves on the Doane Alumni Council.

It may not have shown up right away when they switched over, but if you go to the schedule, it's all there.
