NSIC - conference season chat

crazy too see SCSU decline so much in the last 10 years

Was looking at SDSU men's BB attendance rarely do they go over 2000 with crowd size. The heyday's in the NCC were in 80's up to mid 90's. At NDSU 1653

Interesting Msum fact: over past 29 games (including final 9 games of last season) the dragons are 25-4, which is one of the best stretches in Msum men’s basketball history.

Bigler has lost 5 of his 6 trips to Bemidji....

I was watching a Warrior game earlier this year when the announcer made reference to the "student section." I think there were 25 students. It made me sad.

Even the Gophers are averaging under 9,000 (officially) so far this season. That doesn’t seem so bad for how bad they are this season, but in the old days they’d still average 12,000+ even in the bad years and I’ve heard that actual scanned tickets has been half that or less for many games this season.

Pandemic has changed entertainment habits, but also, I think people became more budget-conscious through the pandemic. We might not technically be in a recession (not sure), but I think spendng habits have become recession-like while prices are still sky-high.

Understandable. They stink and after more than ten years in this state I've only met four Gopher fans in person and that includes Laker, haha

Wonder if the ease of streaming games also hurts attendance. Hearing nsic may start charging for streaming service next season.
