I grew up in Provo. Went to almost every game during my childhood. Went to BYU and camped out for student seats. I flew out from the southeast for the Utah game 2 weeks ago. I love LES and have lifelong memories with family and friends that I made there.
Having said that, there are a large number of fans at home games that just aren't loud. The band is pathetically quiet compared to other college marching bands and the game day experience is sub par at best (some improvements recently).
Road games are more fun, hands down. The travelling fans have spent their hard earned cash to go and be loud for their team. They don't take the games for granted because they may only get to to go a game once every few years. Home fans need to step up.
