Message: [QUOTE="Boston Tiger, post: 3667, member: 662"] This is a very interesting thread for me, since I was hooked from the very first football game I attended at LSU. I have a feeling that the Syracuse athletic administration will have to commit to working to get the die-hard basketball fans to adopt football as their other sport. I know that LSU did that with their baseball program many years ago. The coach had to run all sorts of different promotions to get fans butts in the seats. That worked, and there are now some LSU fans who enjoy baseball more than football. But it took a long time to build that fan base. The point someone made about the lack of passion for HS football in NY state was very good, since I've noticed similar things in the Boston area. I was shocked the first time I went to a local high school game, since this was so different from HS football in the deep south. [/QUOTE]
