That might get a couple students. The dorms aren’t open yet and tickets are $6 on stub hub. If a student wants to go to this game, they will be there already.
You would think but I was there for the last two The Criminal seasons when the place was always 3/4 empty and tickets were easy to get, and there was still always a huge difference on the nights where they made it free for anyone with a student ID to get in. It'd go from being like 20 of us to mostly full.

Exactly. Can’t underestimate what a free ticket and piece of pizza does to the mind of a college kid.

Let kindergarteners, grade schoolers, highschoolers, Kirkwood students!!!, and Iowa students in for free. Maybe you get a few hundred more people in there. As a kid I remember my dad taking us to Iowa games in shitty weather. Those are great memories and created a nostalgia for Hawkeye basketball. The team deserves it and these are asses that likely won’t be in seats otherwise. Just make it easy.

Huh? First semester always ends in December. And second semester never begins before MLK day
Whoops. Meant to type December 20. The academic year started a week later this year and ended days before Christmas.

I seriously hope not. Unless you have to get to UIHC for a medical emergency, anyone making the drive over for a basketball game is not right in the head. Now, if anyone has court side tickets, send them my way.

That was Val Barnes
The Chris Street game @ MSU, right?

I'm thinking of a different game (this one was at Carver)...and I could be completely fos, too.

Now it's freezing rain. I can't see out the window in my office b/c of ice. Pretty much ideal driving conditions.
