Message: [QUOTE="retro44, post: 700268, member: 587"] so it's safe to say 99% don't care about the big ten either. Syracuse and dook are usually the good teams. as for public gathering places...if you can here the advertisers promoting their products on the air,then no one is really in there. and if you can't hear the t.v's then the advertisers lose out also. then people seem to forget that millions of residents down in the city are immigrants who care more about soccer than football. I highly doubt there are hundreds of thousands of big 10 grads with out including Rutgers alums in nyc . And how many big 10 grads are actual football fans vs. being very serious about their education when in college and professional careers that now live in the apple. Local Penn St. grads ARE NOT going to buy tickets for a rutgirls and Mich/Ohio St. in jersey as they are too busy watching their team getting waxed by Syracuse in the Meadowlands. Rutgirls will see more visiting fans show up, but when the team starts losing 48-17 on most Saturdays in the fall the local casual fan base will go back to watching the jersey shore or fishing for stripers like many do all ready according to ann arbor.com there are only 13,200 Michigan alumni in nyc and area [url]http://annarbor.com/news/where-u-m-alumni-live/?cmpid=mlive-@mlive-news-a2[/url] [B][FONT=Arial]There are over 23,000 Penn State Alumni in the NYC area.[/FONT][/B] [url]http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2013/02/heres-exactly-how-many-college-graduates-live-back-at-home/273529/[/url] notice a trend here...
