Message: [QUOTE="DblCrossbar, post: 4762472, member: 12251"] And the sound system is once again too ridiculously loud. They seemed to correct that last year, but just because you can deafen the crowd, doesn't mean you should. If you want the crowd to make noise, don't drown them out - cripes. The UConn Band sounds good though - new tunes to boot, and are at the right sound level - still wish they were up on risers instead of right behind the goal where heckling students should be. The plastic seats aren't comfortable, but I guess that means just watch from the student deck for awhile to work off the numbness. Food options only slightly improves with Bears BBQ offerings, but fairly lame. The arena portion of the facility was over designed and does no one thing well. Honestly even thought the XL is 50 years old the experience when there are 4k+ fans there is significant better than at the sterile TFIF. Of course if the team does well and crowd starts to become part of the game then some of this can be excused, but for now it's very disappointing. I hope the players are having a better experience there... [/QUOTE]
