  • Re: Wisconsin Hockey XXIX: Yes, this is the Rumpel Rink!

    Well this appears to settle the OSU series:

    At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

      Will now just purchase on a game by game basis.
      I dropped my Friday tickets last year and my Saturday tickets this year. It was a really sad turn of events. It wasn't because of any dissatisfaction with the team or the coaching, just a decline in health and oomph. I was pushing for the 40 year mark, but ended up stopping at 38 years. An awful lot of fun through the years.

        A poster on the SNC thread says the UW/SNC game will be closed to the public. Any word on this?

          Wisconsin athletic department miss out on an opportunity to make an extra buck? That would be surprising. I'll look into it.

            Just received clarification from Wisconsin:

            "It is a scrimmage. Essentially two teams practicing together. There aren’t really any details. It is not set up to be a public event."

              Nice way to treat your in-state friends. I'd say complain early and often and you could win the battle, but if it's mostly a practice that's pretty lame.

                That sucks. Baggot sure implied it was a public event. The risk of it being public is losing to a non D1 team in front of thousands.

                  How so?

                  They may be thrilled to get to scrimmage the D-1 boys. A chance to see how they compare.

                  It's quite possible that a scrimmage was all it was ever intended to be and that both programs are happy with it as is.

                    Biggest issue is that it was communicated poorly to the SNC fans.

                      It was communicated poorly to everyone. I can take some of the blame in that.

                        Maybe they wanted to show everyone else how they might compare too?

                        There is only one team with something to lose in this one...

                          Baggott said it was to fill a void in the schedule, which to fans means we see them play, like a USDP game or an Olympic team game. Apparently the void is strictly an internal void. The void in the fan's schedule is meaningless I guess.

                            Would you go to this?

                            I don't believe it would be much of a draw.

                              So, you are saying you would pay $25 to watch this game?

                                More likely, he'd find a season ticket holder who got stuck paying for them who is giving them away.


                                Seriously though, if this interests you as a fan while our attendance for real games is around 8k, I just don't know what to make of that.

                                I guess I just have better ways to spend my time.
