Message: [QUOTE="AZHuskiePop, post: 5041180, member: 1609"] I always thought that the restriction of the UConn market to Hartford and the very lightly populated counties in Eastrrn Ct was silly .My work crew that started attended UConn games together in 1979-80 had all been UConn basketball fans independent of each other since the Hugh Greer era .mostly via radio and the occasional channel 8 television broadcast and we were from South Western New Haven and Eastern Fairfield county.. The common denominator was we all loved sports* had played at some level . . If I’m not mistaken when they played the New Haven Coliseum those games were well attended when Big East was an infant.. * We were a mix of Yankee and Red Sox fans so UConn should have received a Nobel Peace prize .
