Anyone who attended, how was the crowd? Seemed like they were more into it than all but a few of the games last season. That'll increase even more with success. I only watched it on tv, so what was it like in person?

One of the better crowds I've seen for a game not involving the Lakers, Heat, or Celtics. I was very impressed.

Really?

I disagree. Crowd was pretty terrible for opening night. Tons of empty seats. There were 2 moments in the whole game when the crowd was "in it".

i'm pretty sure i was close to y'all, Mikey. we were in 120. crowd was really in it the entire 4th. great energy down low. but holy frick, you could have taken the entire upper deck and put them all in 4 sections. i wonder what official attendance was. paid was over 15k, which is good, i guess. but official may not have pushed 12k.

Crowd was a little disappointing both from a size and noise standpoint, but it definitely picked up in the 4th.

We opened with the Bucks last season, yes?

Either way, the top was empty and surprisingly there were a bunch of empty seats in the lower bowl.

By "in to it", I mean the whole arena getting on their feet. 2 times in the 4th quarter by my count. Could be wrong.

To be fair, most of the games last season were pretty damn pathetic.

The size of the crowds will pick up with success.

I thought the crowd was pretty good. Ended up having a friend w/ connections that upgraded us so I gave away my 300 seats.

Crowd was definitely into in the end. Team played great. I like this team.
