Crowd was awesome. Not sure it can be replicated again for LSU basketball.

It's a different time now and it would be very hard to replicate as you say. Georgetown had a mystique at the time and it was at the height of the Big East basketball popularity.
Maybe a game against Duke could spark some interest but I don't think even now with the interest WW is building could we get near that 60+ thousand.
Dale was a salesman and it was his dream to set an attendance record and and he sold it.

Was there too! Game was awesome, but what I remember most was the crowd. They were yelling "What the fricks a hoya" the whole time.
