Stand up BU, Stand up!

I duno if this has ever been tossed around the with the proper people, but as a current student at BU I've always wished they played one game back in the Fieldhouse. I know all the reasons they wouldn't, less attendence, loss of money, etc., but that is one thing I've always wanted BU to do. The closest I get to seeing a real game in the Fieldhouse is the Peoria sectional during the high school playoffs. I just think it would be really special to have one game there per season. Any thoughts ... ?

I think I read something about PCC contractually won't allow BU to play anywhere else.

You could catch the BU women - the BU/ISU women's game is a pretty good size crowd.

I know, I mean the women's games are fun, but a men's game in there would be a whole different level. It must have been awesome to see the Braves playing there against nationally-ranked apponents.

They play an exibition game there in November.

If the games on campus were such a big deal with the students as some have mentioned (kw's blog comes to mind), why did they have to sell the remaining student tickets to the general public? The fieldhouse wasn't that big and the students couldn't have had that many tickets alloted to them.

When I was BU, I was in the Molinarmy and got to drink beer and sit on the floor if I wanted to. I was a couple feet from the action and the bench. I don't see what was so bad about that.

If someone like KW thinks other people should sit in my seats because they yell louder than me, then let them pay a share of the ticket prices and the huge maintenance fee. Otherwise, come up with another solution.

id pay more money for those better seats. but since they are all claimed, students or others dont have a chance
