[NU Sports] Attendance

[Bryan Bowser]

As a long-time season ticket holder, I think a winning team will certainly help, but the game times are also very important. With many people having to travel from the edges of Chicagoland or other nearby cities, a season of 11:00 games is rough. After staying up late Friday night preparing food and supplies for  the tailgate, I'm up at 5:00 AM every gameday to make the trek, but I have a difficult time convincing others to join me. I'm another vote for more 2:30 games.

<Sure, winning goes a long way towards filling seats and we've talked the
attendance issue to death, but the final 2007 numbers are definitely
discouraging and show that something needs to be done.

A great team is the best answer.  Another is building a new stadium, even if 
it isn't any bigger than Ryan-Dyche.  Build it on campus, which makes it 
easier for students to get there, and provide adequate parking.  Take the 
lake if necessary and screw the tree-huggers.  Or in this case, the water 
foul.
