[QUOTE="steelfrog, post: 3066317, member: 416"] [USER=3597]@Spike[/USER] and Steel travelled to Lubbutt (thanks for going on short notice Spike!) and were among surprisingly few tcu fans in attendance. Big picture the game day experience there from a fan perspective is far superior to that at tcu. It’s not debatable. Steel could go into granular detail but that may not be necessary. Here’s the deal. Most of the reasons it’s a far better experience emanate from the fact that Tech has an abundance of fans far greater than tcu and they are really IN to the team and the game. You can talk about all the reasons why that is but bottom line is they do have lots of fans who are in their seats before kickoff and who are well-trained, for lack of a better term, to participate in crowd-participation chants, songs etc. The piped in music at the tcu game that we all despise is probably perceived by the powers that be as a solution to the fact that we have not too many fans and the ones we have won’t meaningfully participate in the game day presentation. It is what it is as they say in the parlance of our times. Last side note: due to trauma, Steel hadn’t attended in Lubbock since to 70-point debacle years ago. Sat near the student section this time which could have been bad but was not at all. A bit surprising. Perhaps our offense taking the game by the throat early and the Tomlinson pick-6 had something to do with it. That is all. Thread locked. [/QUOTE]
