B1G Baseball at Ameritrade
- Thread starter chicolby
- Start date
In general I would expect no more than 500 to 1,000 people to attend each of the remaining sessions. If it keep raining around here that number might be even less.
DOn't forget either that would probably double the attendance if it was held anywhere else in the B1G footprint...
If their fans remember they have a baseball team you are correct. Most fans seem to be getting that memo after today.
The more I see other teams continue to play in our largest city, in the home of The College World Series, the more pissed I get at Erstad. 6 f'ing hits and 4 errors in 2 games!! Another Erst-dud performance in the B1G. Iowa has sucked the entire year, and they are playing tomorrow for a trip to the NCAA tourney.
DE could try to say that our best hitter was out,Understandable,but the team from my view never sensed urgency needed to survive a tourny.With or without the leading hitter.
OWH: The total attendance figure for the third day wasn’t available Friday night. The event drew 4,507 Thursday after getting a crowd of 9,866 Wednesday.
My guess is Friday's attendance was difficult to calculate due to the dual tickets/re-entry situation because of the Thursday rain outs. Probably the same for today with last night's suspension of play.
Been pretty decent crowds today with an absent Nebraska.
Looks like a good contingent of Hawkeye fans turned out today. As hard as it is to root for Iowa to win anything, I hope they win today. Maybe watching a neighboring program that has a fraction of NU's resources and fan support celebrating at Ameritrade Park will light a fire under the Huskers.
But then, we do have a coach that people have heard of, and who's a Husker through and through. So maybe winning is just way too much to ask.

The article by Shatel this morning was pretty hilarious. The spin machine it starting up...now it's all about winning the right way....and that takes time. The excuses for Erstad will continue because who he was as a player.

It's okay we didn't want to win this year anyway, next year is our year, or the year after that, however many Erstdud needs.
Yeah I thought about that, since Ohio State pobably has its at-large bid in hand at this point. But I would still prefer to see Iowa win. NU shouldn't be relying on Iowa to lose in order to squeeze into a regional.
