I'm not talking about the stuff I saw on the court but the timeout antics going on. I thought they backed down last year but I see it's full steam ahead. Kiss cam is back. That security guy plant dancing away in the 200 section and the cheerleader with the mic shouting let's go RU. It may work better if the team isn't being blown away to jupiter.

all of the trumped all stuff to get the crowd involved quite frankly is embarrassing

the worst was the cheerleader with the mike...LETS GO RU...it was awful, please stop

the kiss cam..ugh are we at a minor league. The band is virtually non existant. The cheerleaders couldn't get a rise out of the fans if they sat on their laps

its just an embarrassing product all around. No RU chant today, not one, no anticipated, its like a church, no boos either, its apathy

oh and the rally towels..what was up with that...for one did they only give out a few hundred, I didn't see any or anyone giving them out. Then the announcer told people to wave them..why...a few scattered towels waved, an epic fail...don't know why they would give them out for the Nebby game of all games..of course free t shirts just for the lower level again who doesn't bother wearing RU colors anyway

Geoff Brown has to go and the sooner the better! He has brought the Lakewood Blue Claws to Piscataway

I think there were only 100 tshirts. I always get there early and there were no more than 300 there. I got a towel. I did see some shirts on that side entrance on the north side they were giving out.

the first year it was out of control with the in game stuff, last year seemed to be better, yes some cams which I hate but I realize they are here to stay but this year they seemed to have gone overboard with the promos, moreso since Julie was canned

Please Please Please eliminate the DJ and that horrible headache producing noise music he provides in the pregame warmups. It's sickening.
Also, when I sat in the lower level they shot the tee shirts to the upper level. Now that I'm in the upper level again they don't even reach the
top rows of the lower level.

I ended up leaving at ghe under 12 timeout. Everything about yesterday was ridiculous. the football team has 500 uniform combos and we couldn't get 10 basketball players throwbacks to wear. Kiss cam and clap your hands are awful. i wish they served beer so i can make it through the insufferable gamea.

that's the same time I left, I imagine there were more stupid hijinks during the timeouts. To me all that stuff they do just magnifies how pathetic the product is. I guess 10 year old kids matter more. This isn't a college basketball game anymore, its minor league circus baseball now. So sad. It seems like they just throw as much stuff at the wall to generate interest. But at least we no longer have lets make a deal anymore

The goal is diversion from watching the game .Gimics give some fans a laugh and that's the best that can be hoped for right now.Attendance has been dwindling except for when the visitor fan base shows up.

When the product on the court is minor league why wouldn't you expect it to look/feel like you're at a minor league event.

Need to break few eggs to get an omelet, right? Right now all we have egg beaters past their expiration date.

best thing I saw at the RAC this year is when that big Mackeral spit out the guy from his mouth
