An empty RAC?

[RUich]

If there are no or few fans for the games, you have to think that the atmosphere works against us. Will we be able to repeat or come close to last season's dominance without fans?

We were just as poor on the road as we were strong at home so it should be a “wash” since road arenas should be empty too. However, we a year older, more mature, and have to be hungrier after last season. True, we will have less home cupcakes to pad our win total but so will everyone else. I think it bodes well for a very good season ahead.

Yes , we have to hope it’s a wash. I am concerned about this, however .

Having watched college football and NFL games with no and % fans, we really need to figure out a way to get to 25% attendance levels in all football stadiums and bball arenas.

The more important issue IMHO will be the refs. We historically have never received the benefit of the doubt and so often have recieved the short end. Will the refs call a fair game without fans in the stands?

The limited crowds should give the concession and parking and traffic control intelligentsia a chance to iron out wrinkles.

I'm not sure they're capable of ironing out wrinkles.

They are pretty cavernous sized wrinkles, parking in particular.

I haven't checked recently, but the last time I did (a month or so ago), it looked to me like they cut down some trees on Suttons Lane between Metlars and Hospital Road... as if they plan to widen the road.

That arena won't be quiet. There'll be somebody, somewhere making noise in that place. Maybe the janitor or the security personnel. But somebody. The RAC is a living organism, not a building. It's an animate object.
