[QUOTE="CaliCuse, post: 818933, member: 324"]
in the 60s I worked in Marine Midland with a large group of co-workers . When the weekend approached ,it wasn't uncommon to ask each other what were our plans for the weekend. When the occasion was ,that I would be going to a game at Archibald I can remember being asked "Why"? Now these people were normal in appreciation of sports but the though of going to a game was as foreign a possibility as anything you might imagine even when thre team was full of stars and playing well. Spending money to go to a game? "Hell no! Lousey fans from way back . They always have been . If they weren't winning,getting a crowd was even more remote a possibility. Nothing has changed in Syracuse for many decades. Its sure not going to get any better with these kind of loses. Bandwagon buccaneers. They go to basketball games because Jimmy brings in stars to play for him. He wins and they come .They will pack the Dome when Duke shows up. More than some of our football games. When we bring in some big time football players that excite the fans MAYBE they will show up but not before. Its really up to the coaches to recruit better and win when they do. The crowd will follow that success with proportional numbers.
