Dear corporate sponsor and NCAA non-hockey fans who think that watching St. Cloud, UMass Lowell, and Quinnipiac is beneath you. Sorry we couldn't deliver a marquee matchup between schools that you've heard of (except for Yale, and I bet you didn't know they have a hockey team). Go to hell.

Give the corporate sponsors seats in the corner and let the real fans sit in the middle. I sat in the corner and thought the seats were awesome. I hope the guy from Philadelphia's Frozen Four committee is paying attention. He'll get an earful from me on Saturday.Last edited by Priceless; 04-12-2013, 05:57 AM.

also, when they were showing the gms from the lower sections, back & forth action.. it wasn't bad as the corners had fans.. but.. when they went to the eagle-eye view.. or wide angle from the upper balcony.. was like.. uh oh.. cut back! cut back! (to original camera angle)..
.. they stayed on the eagle eye for about 5-10 seconds each time.. not cool. Just zoom into Melrose.. have him do a joke or something.. :--) anyway, do hope Yalies & Bobcat fans pack it Saturday. Gluck to both teams.. what a journey!GO NU HOCKEY

Re: Attendance at Pittsburgh
Unfortunate that the place looked empty, because it wasn't. Too bad the sparsely populated sections are the sections that show up a lot on TV. The upper bowl was filled. Good for you locals, casual fans, and low priority lottery entrants. I was actually pleasantly surprised by the crowd, except for the NCAA bigwig and corporate sponsor sections. Happy that I like sitting in the end (and we were lucky -- 8 out of 10 goals were scored in our end), but if I really liked sitting on the side, I would have been more upset than I was last night.

Originally posted by Priceless View PostCorrect on all counts. Will be interesting to see if any of them show up for the all-Connecticut final. It's embarrassing.
