  • Frozen Four - 58 schools photo question

    Since I'm a Frozen Four ticket holder for the first time, I have some odd questions to ask.

    1. Are sweaters from all D1 schools displayed on a wall every year, such as they have been this FF at the Forum? When did this tradition begin?

    2. Related to that, I couldn't help notice the impressive representation from most of the 58 schools last night. Has there been any thought to getting a group photo that includes one fan from each? What's the best way pull it together ... social media? PA announcement? Host-school organizes it?

    3. Is it worth the trouble?

    4. Have any of you posters made an attempt to (at least mentally) check off every school as you walk around the facility? Has anyone ever seen at least one jersey from EVERY active D1 school worn at a single Frozen Four?

    Thanks for reading this.

    Myself and friends kept track of all the jerseys we saw last year. Some saw them all. And I saw an AIC jersey at the Final Five.

      That AIC jersey was a glorious site to see.

          I know the wall of jerseys was at the previous two Frozen Fours (St. Paul and Detroit)...don't know if it started in Detroit two years ago.

            Yes, on the back of the program.

            Speaking for myself, no. I've gotten as close as 6 away from all D1 schools, but can add bonus points for seeing a UIC jersey in '08.

              Detroit is the first I recall having a display of all the jerseys.
              I love keeping track of what jerseys I've seen at the Frozen Four. Last year one of my friends printed up bingo cards to play "jersey bingo".

                        Did they get a Providence jersey displayed this year? I remember hearing that there wasn't one last year.

                          I saw several Providence jerseys Thursday. Mark, I'm 90% sure I remember seeing a Qpac jersey or 3. Saw 2 more SLU jerseys than my own.

                          Didn't see Colgate, Harvard, Dartmouth or Princeton for ECAC jerseys.

                            I have to agree, despite myself.
