Depends on the fan, and the barn.  I'd much rather see a game in
Appleton (SLU) than the ONCenter (Syracuse).  (I've never been to the
Knick, so I'll avoid disparaging it here.)  And can you imagine the
stories a western fan would bring back from a weekend series at UVM,
Cornell, BU or Clarkson (to name a few)?
