The last I knew fan interest in Illinois basketball was on a downhill slide dropping by almost 2000 per game down to a 12,723 average in 2016. Xavier has an average attendance of around 10,281 per home game. Iowa State is virtually sold out every game with an average attendance of 14,270 per home game and on average our team plays before 228,326 fans per season while Illinois and Xavier only have around 165,000 per season.
I can think of a few comments from Americas top sports commentators when talking about Hilton and ISU! 1) “Hilton is one of the toughest places to play in the country" 2)"It's known around the COUNTRY that you don't want to play at Hilton because it's a tough place to play." 3) "Opposing teams don't really know what actually just hit them until they actually got done with the ballgame.” 4) "It's a great home-court advantage." 5) "There's the Hilton Magic," 6) “Iowa State's Hilton Coliseum is among the best sports arenas in the country!”
Looking at historical value, fan loyalty and enthusiasm, Hilton has been picked as one of the ten locations for the best places to see a game! There is no reason to go anywhere else! Those are some of the points fans need to tweet to THT!
