[NU Sports] Attendance

[mlinhardt at netzero.net]

We have commented to Murphy on multiple occasions about the traffic control.  This year we saw multiple Evanston cops doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING while Northwestern was footing their overtime hours.

We should DUMP Evanston police and pick up state, Wilmette, Skokie, or anybody who would make an effort at traffic control.  Year after year the Evanston cops do an EXTREMELY poor job.

If you guessed this is my hot button topic and one I bend Murphy's ear every chance we get.

I personally don't like night games(I get up very early), but we should be able to negotiate with ABC/ESPN for some noon or 1pm kicks.  2:30pm interferes with dinner as we are not home until 7:30 and don't get a chance to wind down before going out to eat.

Traffic is an endless nightmare - McCormick Blvd has been torn up for a  long time, the Edens Expressway is (and will be) torn up for a long time, the  Tri-State Tollway has been torn up for a long time (ironically, to put in  high-speed oper road toll stations).  
 
As someone who has been to a lot of our games at Michigan, I marvel at how  easily they can park and seat 106,000 people, and how hard it is for us to park  and seat 42,000.  And leaving the Michigan parking lots is almost always a  good experience (including the many streets converted to one-way traffic  only).
