Dornblaser had lots of empty seats last night. The Brick was nearly sold out.
I'm sure Dornblaser had lots of empty seats last night since it is the old football stadium. they play basketball in the Adams Center (formally known as Adams Fieldhouse).

I'm perfectly comfortable not knowing anything about any of the programs over there.


While registering my vehicles the assessor stated "I have had both Cat and Griz students and alums work for me and the Griz end up working under the direction of the Cats."

The Brick drew an attendance of 6,648 for the men’s Cat-Griz matchup last month (https://www.espn.com/mens-college-baske ... montana-st). There were almost 6,000 at the second matchup in Missoula last Saturday (https://www.espn.com/mens-college-baske ... st-montana). The Brick was “nearly sold out” while the Adams Fieldhouse “had lots of empty seats?” You are funny. 😆

I was referring to "butts in the seats" not announced attendance.

There were a fair number of empty seats for Cat/Griz in Missoula. I could see them on the TV.

I agree with most of you, basketball isn't an event it's just a game. I attend a couple Zag games each year and I enjoy watching the student section more than the games. The student put on a show that is organized, energized and just plain fun. It's driven by the cheerleader in conjunction with the band and the whoever runs their audio. In the student section they have quite a few who are involved in directing and setting up group performances. While i understand it's driven by a winning team the fun that the students seem to have makes the game almost secondary. Every student is there to be a part of the overall experience whether they know it or not. I have never seen any resemblance of that at any Cat/Griz game or any other Big Sky schools but I have witnessed at Grand Canyon U in Arizona and a couple WCC schools. My two cents.
