[QUOTE="Bruce Wayne, post: 98382, member: 231"] Then you haven't paid attention very well. See Steebu's comment for starters. Second, who are you comparing our fan base to to come up with all your huffing and puffing and insults about apathy? By what rational basis are you making your criticisms? Some version of reality existing in your head? Duke won the Coastal last year, has a student body of 14,600 and a stadium capacity of 34,000. They have yet to have a home game sellout this year up to this point. Tech fans routinely and historically travel very well comparable to school size for away games and bowls. Bobby Dodd is also routinely mentioned as a really loud stadium by opponents. Were you at the Miami game? Did you hear our small travel [I]pep band[/I] destroying the microphone during the NCST game? Our band was louder than the TV announcers. Of course that is bad TV production to not adjust the volume levels they piped the stadium noise at over the airwaves but still, our band and "apathetic" fans were doing their part. I went to see Tech play BC in 2008 at Chestnut Hill and the Tech fans and the pep band absolutely [I]embarrassed [/I]the BC marching band in their own stadium. It was a site to behold, witness, and hear. [/QUOTE]
