6 PM start times for conference weeknight games

Post by RAMBLOR »

Not sure when these changed from TBD to 6 CST, but that's just brutal for anyone but students. Anyone taking the train from the loop has to bolt from work at 5 sharp if they want any shot of making it to tipoff. Anybody driving in from the suburbs... see you in the second half I guess, but I'm guessing they're gonna stay home.

I'm guessing this is locked in due to TV, but really really sucks -- those home crowds are going to be pretty weak.

I get that, but I also get that it's easier for me to bring my kids to the game and not get home after 10pm. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

LOL well I guess it's a win for the Jr. Ramblers out there... hopefully they don't hear me cursing up a storm trying to hurry in to make it before the 2nd media timeout.
