Attendance

I think shitty officiating makes for a better crowd as it gets them into it.

I laughed way to hard at this man. My condolences.

True story.  My son and I laughed all the way home - sitting on broken glass, no driver's window, it's snowing, and we're driving 70 with the heat on high.

People don't want to have their ears blasted for 2.5 hrs. with 120 decibels of Pitbull when they can watch at home. Seriously, games at FF are almost unwatchable with all the NBA stadium bs going on, very noticeable tonight with a smaller crowd.

God forbid the fans cheer at a slightly high volume too. Next they'll be dancing!

[BLWarrior91]

So Creighton outdraws us because cars don't get stolen as much in Omaha?

Sounds like Milwaukee needs to have more visible patrols in the FF area on game nights.

And standing!

I was at the game bud. I suppose if more people showed up they wouldn't have to blast us all with terrible music and whatnot. Serious question, do you enjoy all that trash that they do during timeouts?

There are too may timeouts to begin with much less what happens during them!
I mean a coach calls a to with 4:02 and 3 seconds later ....3:59 guess what? Another timeout. I thought about leaving.

Ok now you've gone too far.

It happened to me with my Audi about 3 years ago after a Marquette game in Milwaukee.

I laughed quite a bit on the drive home after I had some place put one of the custom plastic setups on my passenger window and I joked to my wife that I would hotbox her the entire ride home.

Great times

During game play is the quietest part of MU games at fiserv forum.

Then you're not cheering enough.

But then again, I gather you're a hoot at parties too

I think there's a lot of truth to this. Maybe the scoreboard operator should post articles and tweets that slight MU. The crowd will be in a frenzy.

Yes.

Since becoming a snowbird, the one thing I miss is being able to attend Marquette games in person.

Same here. I flew in from South Florida for tonight's game. Wonderful experience, great game and good crowd. And I do like Milwaukee. When I attended Marquette as well as now!

[MUfan12]

It was a weird vibe in there tonight. Low energy, and as the game wore on you could feel the crowd getting nervous. The back to back threes by Tyler and Jop got things going a bit. Down the stretch it got loud.

As far as attendance goes, MU will still average 14k even with the 3700 from the Al game factored in. That's pretty damn good. Now they need to get on it for X. Potentially the biggest home game in years.

Right. I'm talking about the noise in the stadium. Maybe NMD will be different, but tonight? It wasn't even close. Apparently you weren't following your own cheering rules based on how quiet the crowd was.

I was at home due to a fence installation. But usually I don't have a voice at the end. I do quite well for myself.

So...no noise to hype students and crowds from DJ. Just eerie silence.

But more noise from sweater vests. This we can agree on

That X game will be close to sold out, despite the weeknight 6PM tip

Just out of curiosity, where did you park?
I always contemplate not spending $30 on parking, but maybe I'll just do it for the peace of mind. Sorry to hear.

Ball knows where to park.

Everyone is very impressed. Maybe go to the game before you start advising people on how they should enjoy the game?

[wadesworld]

This thread is incredible. Hits on almost all the best points.

The students suck.
The marketing department sucks.
The concessions suck.
The DJ sucks.
Milwaukee is scary.

Don't ever post again!  Your post count is:  1977 . 

I was parked just NW of the Fiserv on McKinley.  I don't recommend it.  The window smashers hit 2 weeks in a row on the same street during MU games (saw the second one on the news).  Now I'm parking in a locked structure.

Please stay home.

I do. Lots. Driving up from Chicago. Maybe learn to find fun in things?

If everyone is impressed doss this mean I know ball?
