Not against the team, against their insufferable fans who think they are blue bloods.Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

Re: 2019 Frozen Four: NCHC vs. Hockey East
The reported attendance per chstats was 13051. That seems about 3-4000 too high.
Those are obviously sold and unused tickets (as usual, I’ll point out that there is very little incentive for the hosts to overreport attendance figures). Perhaps a symptom of fans from blue blood schools that didn’t book a trip when they missed the tourney? I’d blame the prices, but the prices have been insane for years.If you want to be a BADGER, just come along with me
BRING BACK PAT RICHTER!!!
At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."
Canned music is a pathetic waste of your time.

That clearly didn't happen this time around. I was there tonight and had a GREAT time watching two terrific games in a pretty nice facility... but the turnout was very poor and not what I would have envisioned for my first Frozen Four. I doubt there was even 10,000 in there. Maybe 9K. I've been to regular season games at Union, Cornell and RPI with a better atmosphere.
What went wrong? Ticket prices were higher than ever, I think. Our all-session passes were $300 each for the lower level. The four teams that did make it may not have been optimal for attendance purposes but there's way of controlling that. And though we drove in, I've heard a lot of complaints about the Buffalo Airport. I can't speak to how well the event was (or was not) marketed in the Buffalo area. Maybe all those were factors.
I could see Saturday's crowd being worse with Providence knocked out of it. Outside of UMass, they might have had the best turnout.
Unfortunately, I would be surprised Buffalo will be getting another Frozen Four after this. All those empty seats is a bad look on TV for the NCAA.
