  • Re: UNH Wildcats - Marty Scarano

    In 1908, there was the Curse of the Billy Goat, which the Chicago Cubs have yet to overcome. Then, in 1918, there was the Curse of the Bambino, which the Red Sox reversed in 2004. In 1959, there was the Curse of Rocky Colavito, which the Cleveland Indians have failed to resolve. So, now we have........?

      My friends father has worked at the university for somewhere around 30 years and knows a lot of what does and does not go on there. As he has explained before there will be no bridge over the tracks because Amtrak would have to allow it and the price is too steep. I believe there is the same issue with tunneling under, except that issue is power companies I believe.

          #2) Sound system
          #3) Lighting system (really negatively effects tv games imo)
          #4) Sound panels in the ceiling. The Garden has them and it helps to keep noise in, the exposed beams really play havoc with the acoustics in the Whitt
          #5) Resurface aisles, concourse, etc

          To do list after I win Powerball:
          Widen the concourse
          Extend the series of boxes at the top of the bowl behind the opposing team's bench all the way around the arena creating additional premium boxes and in effect enclosing the concourse and trapping more noise in the playing area.
          LED ribbon board around the interior of the now enclosed rink
          Lounge area(s)
          Matching set of 2nd level luxury boxes on the non-student end zone
          Balconies on the two sidelines
          Underground parking garage (accessible through the cement wall where Snively meets the Whitt)
          Foot traffic bridge to/from A Lot over the train tracks
          My request for an improved Whitt would be:
          #1 Skating Cheerleaders!
          Every bit as entertaining and a lot cheaper than a Jumbotron.

            They'd have to be good for it to work, the only school I've seen pull this off is Minnesota. I've always been of the opinion that unless they can hack it on the ice cheerleaders just don't belong at hockey games (I'm looking at you NU & Boston College).

              The Minnesota skating cheerleaders remain my fondest memory of the 2002 Frozen Four.

                As a looooooong time season ticket holder at BC, I don't ever recall seeing cheerleaders at games.

                  I'm pretty sure I saw BC cheerleaders with the BC band at the Beanpot.

                  Having said that, I'd never seen BC do that before, so it may have been a one-off?

                  I didn't see either of the UNH-BC games this year (thank God) so maybe ClOuD saw it then ...

                      It's possible it was at the Beanpot. I haven't been to the Beanpot in >10 years.

                        Yep, they were up with the band at both of BC's Beanpot games this year.

                            The "State of Hockey" knows how to do it right. You should see the ice sweeping women at the xCel during TV timeouts. Goodness gracious.

                              About those license plates Cloud9, I have been on that for 30 years! I am so tired of seeing the Maine booster plates on the Seacoast! I've spoken with a couple of state legislatures about this and never ever get a good answer! The latest reason was that the State House gets hundreds of requests from different organizations and they can't accommodate everyone....so when I ask why not, I get the "oh c'mon" look.....in Maine we have about 12 different plates you can choose from! Then I'm told of the disreputable organizations that would apply if they granted one to UNH....seriously! So anyway Cloud9, somehow here in NH, we can't seem to be able to do what the other 49 states can do!!!
