Attendence was indeed light for the first game between WM and WU.  In part
that was due to the all Western matchup, but a major factor was the start
time.  As I recall, BU had the first game in Providence a couple of years
ago and the stands were almost empty.  I don't know what it's like out
west, but here in the east fans simply can't get to a 5:00 start, I don't
care WHO's playing.  If they want more fans at the games, then they'd best
go back to 1 game Thursday, 1 game Friday, and 2 games Saturday.  The
start times are a bit absurd.
