Message: [QUOTE="All4SU, post: 863450, member: 381"] Outside of the hardcore 20-25,000 SU fans, most other folks in the Syracuse area know very little about the team. Some think they know, but they are embarrassingly ignorant. Others just plain don't know . We as fans have operated in a siege mentality for too long. For the last decade, we gravitated to other hardcore fans, following the team, giving our support, but not being nearly vocal enough. That has to end. You want to get more support into e Dome? Talk it up to folks who don't follow it. Sell them on the idea that SU is coming back, on the excitement of being at the Dome fort he BC game, on the affordability of tickets. Invite them to a tailgate. Make it an event. Syracuse area residents are passive, and need to feel like lots of other people are into something before they tentatively check things out. We need a grass roots effort. And that starts with the hardcore fans. [/QUOTE]
