We love the feedback

In 2011, people were camping out for weeks in advance. Showing up 5 hours before the game meant you were row 20 or worse. Now, showing up 2 hours before the game gets you row 3, at the worst.

Yes, there are less prime seats. But we haven't had the success of years past with the new section to prove that as a problem.. yet.

What can we do to enhance the atmosphere right now?

The students weren't closer to the court. They were behind four rows of high

No students are behind the basket. Its a giant portal.
