Message: [QUOTE="Townie72, post: 543546, member: 780"] Now you are changing your story to "there are lots of Terp fans, alumni, students in the area ... but there isn't a lot of excitement over football". I can buy that. But Terp football has been on a downswing the last few years. When Fridgen came in, Byrd was full. When they are good, people go to the games. When they are not good, they don't. There's a lot of other stuff to do in Washington. I watch a lot of WCAC (Gonzaga, DeMatha, Good Counsel) and even Georgetown Prep football. These games take 2 hrs to watch and are easy to get to. Go to a Gonzaga vs. Georgetown Prep game. Prep is about 5 minutes from Kensington. I'd also recommend a Georgetownn Prep vs. Gonzaga or Landon lacrosse game. This is not a huge college football area. The Redskins sap up just about all the football interest there is. Basketball is inherently a bigger deal. Try to get a ticket to a Terp basketball game. It's not easy to do. [/QUOTE]
