    I heard it was quite peppy.
    Don't confuse hope for a plan.

    Re: Pep Rally

    It was pretty cool. LOTS of fans there. The place it was held at was kind of tourist trappish... it was a complex that had very southwest themed stuff to see/do/buy, you could buy food/drinks, etc. At one far end was the stage, where Geoffroy started off the night with a speech, followed by Pollard, Jon Walters, CPR, and then the team captains all said a few words and got the fans involved. The band was there and playing the typical ISU tunes. It was a fun time but for how many fans were there (a lot!) it really wasn't that loud during the fight song and chant/yelling songs. There were a lot of families and old folks too so I think that had something to do with it. We stayed for about an hour and it was a good time but I wouldn't have wanted to be there a whole lot more than that.

    Cool. Care to give an estimate on the number of people in attendance?

    Wow, nice! If there were 6,000+ at the pep rally, I would expect a fairly large number of ISU fans at the game!
