Anybody know why we're playing at noon on a Thursday?

 

[Catreporter]

BTN! Also, It's a week off for a lot of people including all school kids so good potential for a nice crowd. Last time we played Brown was a day game at Allstate in December which drew pretty well. Big downside of that game was an injury to McIntosh that basically killed our season.

Am sad I'll be working at noon on a Thursday and unable to attend. I'll try to tune in to wgn.
