Are you sure they will stay away from it? There is a break (half hour?) between the two games, so they may return later.

Keeping my finger's cross. Meanwhile, I have 360 going just in case.

I'm getting tired of the 360 transition music! I have it in the background so i need the sound to know when it switches on, but it is driving me crazy.

Chris.......how big does the crowd look? Just curious.

 

[Cyclone42]

Looked like a pretty good crowd, from the Virg-GB broadcast.

Solid. Entire lower level is full. Upper deck centers are full. Not much in the corners or behind the baskets though in the upper deck.

Is there WiFi in Hilton? Or do you have to use a cell data connection to get on the net from Hilton?

Sounds like between 8 and 9000 then.

8 fans to 9,000 fans is a very wide estimate. You must be shooting for a low margin of error.

Lets Go Ladies! Make it rain 3's on um!

lol.......I would be more accurate if I could see the crowd.......but I took my best shot.

Lower deck is nearly 6000. I'd guess more like 10,000 - 11,000 overall.

 

[Cyclone42]

BTW, too bad UNI couldn't quite knock off two #1 seeds in the same weekend. UNI women lost badly to Nebby.

You're right.....arena circle is 1500, parquet is 4500, balcony is 8000. Figure an average of 200 per section in the balcony.

 

[Tornado man]

I would agree with mred - maybe 11,000. More GB fans are staying than I thought would.
