Hockey East semi final was at the Fleet Center - 17K plus for hockey, not
exactly small. If you are referring to the Northeastern series, BU was on
spring break. As for the locals, there are a few more ways for them to
entertain themselves on a Saturday night in Boston than there are in Orono.
I would be willing to bet that more BU fans will show for a preseason game
in Chicago than Maine fans, simply because there have got to be more BU
Alums living in the area than there are Maine alums. I don't see too many
students from either school making the trip. As a matter of fact, even
though the games might be great, I have to wonder how well this tourney
will do considering the timing and location. I hope they advertise big
time out there. I think the concept is a good one, I hope it works.
Dave
Congratulations UND. And to BU - thanks for getting that far, let's get to
the Fleet in 98!
