Basketball RAC SOLD OUT FOR REST OF SEASON
- Thread starter Richie O
- Start date
It is almost not fair to call NJ a band wagon fan base.....just because we have been so bad for so long..... if we did not finish near the basement all the time in league..... fans drift away when the product is sub-mediocre.....
right now we are tied for 3rd.... ranked 25th....at other programs, that are used to winning, this would not stir ticket sales like this....
Almost every team's fans are fair weather. The number of programs or prof teams that could go through what RU has been through and still draw are few and far between.
This season is like 2006 football. Next year the entire football stadium was season tickets with a wait list. My question is will it be the same for the RAC. I'd LOVE to see that. I have seven and I plan on adding. My worry is that I know with what's gone on this year you'll also see brokers buying our season tickets.
To me, it's more like 2005. Very under the radar team, which improved the previous year (until the tragic accident), after decades of futility (no bowls in 27 years), and which finally broke through to win some big games on the backs of mostly underrecruited players, who played together wonderfully as a team, and finally make a bowl, with an incredibly re-energized fanbase (as really shown at the Insight Bowl). And while we might get even better this year, we might not, but I definitely think we'll be even better next year and maybe that's our 2006 where the whole country pays attention.
