The tipping point for Iowa sports to loserville is coming, and their lack of bball attendance is just another piece of evidence.
John Sears wants IA to start giving out “freebies” again at embarassing Carver

TV isn't doing them any favors either with game times.
They ended up with exactly one league game on a Saturday (and that's Penn State lol) and they end up playing at 8:00 on Thursday all the time. Even if you're in CR with the nightmare parking set up you aren't home until pushing midnight.
That's a giant pain in the ass when you know you're not going to see great basketball and you just know that come February 1 that the bottom is going to fall out.

I have a friend that is a Michigan State alum & his son goes to Iowa...He drove over for a MSU @ IOA game in CHA...and told me ...& I am quoting "I have been at Funerals that had more people in attendance than the game at CHA!!"
ROFL. Boomer Alert! Boomer Alert! I will put songs like this on in cowboy bars just to get rid of the people who aren't cool. My favorite is putting on a Between the Buried and Me 15 minute death metal epic. Always be sure to put in $30 so that other people have to out bid you to get ahead of your song queue.
Going to a cowboy bar and putting that on just honestly makes you an *******.
When crap like that would happen at a place I used to work the power to the juke box would mysteriously go out momentarily. Sorry, it happens.
It's amazing that Hilton is 50 years old vs. Carver's 40 years and as far as the inside of the arena, Hilton is still a much better place to watch basketball.
Well it's not themed cowboy but they just keep showing up... Plus I have to hear their crappy music all the time. They could use a little culture.
Ya we would get over ruled by bar tenders sometimes.
Just a joke. I understand that music isn't for most people.
Hwy 30 east to Cedar Rapids is much the same. Much busier all the way to Tama before it thins out, but I still see plenty of Linn County plates all the way to CR, so there are more than a few die hard fans that make the trek.
They need to remove the seats and do what the theaters done. Put in recliners to give fans more room to knit and to also allow them to lean back and fall asleep with what Fran puts on the floor.
Ya we have been doing it for years. Too bad I didn't use that bit in college maybe I'd be married to Olivia Munn right now?
