Message: [QUOTE="mussels, post: 5274367, member: 5722"] I think some folks need to look up “burgeoning.” Also, what make the concept of a rivalry so enticing is MSG. If the Johnnies are good and we play them at the garden, there are about equal numbers of each team’s fans in a sold out arena. In a typical home game if the visitors score or go on a run, the place gets quiet. Not the case here, as half the place is always going wild no matter what team is scoring/going in a run. Attended the 99 game in the garden when St John’s was a top ten team (Eric Barkley, Ron Artest (Meta World Peace), Bootsie Thornton) and we we’re either 1 or 2. Was as wild and electric as any game I’ve been to. [/QUOTE]
