[LIuconn]

The casual fan is noticing. Get (back) on board now!

 

[Storrs South]

Prayers up for Mike

 

[Rico444]

I'll be there. Been a few years since I've been to a sold out XL, should be a lot of fun.

 

[InKembaITrust]

I'll be there +3.

Should be a fun environment. Expecting it to be a close one like all the others up to this point.

Still more than a UConn football game

 

[mauconnfan]

That's great. I imagine it will be fun there for sure. But imagine if they won last night yikes place would've really been rocking with hope!!

 

[HU5KIES]

Will be there +7

 

[dannyHAM]

Will be there and at the bars beforehand +6

 

[ucawn]

Memphis looking good tonight at Cincy. Should be a dog fight like last time. I like our chances in this one

 

[maineuconnfan]

Sweet, driving down from Maine!

 

[tentoes4rings]

I’m looking forward to it. Hope it mirrors the energy and enjoyment of most of the WSU game, with a better outcome of course. Would be great to get a raucous “Precious” chant going.

 

[Durks07]

Me +1. Trying really hard to brainwash my fiance into being a fan.

Can't believe this game isn't at Gampel.
Sunday afternoon, midday, on a Sunday in the middle of spring semester.

The ability to seat 6000 more people and give the slowest concession workers in the world the ability to pad the revenue a bit is too hard to ignore apparently.

Look at what Gampel gets and what XL gets. You need to keep it equal for the season ticket holders. Also a full XL is a great crowd, for example Arizona last year

 

[Hoophound]

We’ll win this game. CT is getting back on board. Should be a great atmosphere.

 

[Husk04ies]

+25....picked a great game for a giant friend trip!

 

[Marat]

Driving up from NYC +3 to join in on the fun.

 

[GruntCakes]

Will be there +1

Ugh, every time I walk by that chicken fry fry place, it smells like a war crime in progress.

 

[elmcityboy]

going with my dad (class of '75) + 2

it's his first game in a while. hoping it's a good one!

 

[Zissou]

When was the last XL sell out?

16,000 fans can’t be wrong

 

[HooperScooper]

When was the last XL sell out?

Wichita St. 2 years ago?

Wichita St. 2 years ago?

I went to the Nova game there Jan 2018. Good crowd - reported was 700 shy of a sell-out.

 

[Guapo]

Once this program is good again; the fanbase may spontaneously combust in pure ecstasy

 

[gampelcrazies]

So after doing some quick research it looks like this would be the first sellout since the the 1/20/2018 Nova game. However that was only announced at 15,564.

The last 16,000+ crowd was 3/1/2014 game vs. Cincy which was 16,294.

 

[UconnU]

People are coming to see Bouknight. Immediately after the SMU game Bouk tweeted a picture of a billboard for the game saying “Be there”. There finally seems to be some light at the end of the tunnel drawing fans back in.

The XL Center seating capacity for basketball is now 15,564.
