oscar just needs to schedule a game in KC every year.
remember when shitty KCers wouldn't by tickets during the OOD era? Because non KCers do.
Ok just seeing this like 2 weeks later, but I think we filled up the arena pretty well. Southern Miss vs KSU wasn't going to draw 18k anywhere.
Yeah, wtf?
Isn't there like 3 million people in the KC area? Those upper deck tickets were $20 & and under. Also don't act like that was the only game that did poorly because it wasn't. KC has been better the last couple of games but lol at scheduling a game every year.
Every non-con Cat game Since the Sprint Center opened:
2007-08: December 17* 7:00 pm vs. Florida A&M W 87–60 17,699
2008-09: 12/11/2008* 7:00 PM vs. Southern Miss W 74–55 6,054 <--- ok that one is awkward, but still
2009-10: 11/28/2009* 3:00 PM vs. IUPUI W 70–57 7,053 <--- Tip was exact same time as ku/mu at Arrowhead, on Thanksgiving weekend
2010-11: 11/22/2010* 8:30 PM vs. #22 Gonzaga W 81–64 18,630 4–0
11/23/2010* 9:00 PM vs. #1 Duke L 68–82 18,696 4–1
12/21/2010* 8:00 PM vs. UNLV L 59–63 18,422
2011-12: December 17 9:00 pm vs. #23 Alabama W 71–58 16,685
2012-13:12/22/2012* 7:00 PM vs. #8 Florida W 67–61 16,303
6 of the 8 non cons they've done at Sprint have been capacity, or near capacity crowds. I'd like to think if they schedule a good opponent, 15 k will show up every time.
And yeah, there's a lot of people in the KC area, but 90% are ku or mu fans. I think the KC Wild Wildcat fanbase has shown that we'll support the team if they come play.
