Quote from: RobinThanks. Word on uscho forum is that Cornell returned 104 tickets,  BU 23, Michigan 140, and NU 2. Not sure where the poster got the info,  but there it is.
Maybe Cornell took 2X as many as the other schools, or our fans figured there were other ways to buy tickets.

By numbers it seemed a BU crowd. But I certainly think we were more vocal and enthusiastic.

We sat on the same side as NU and BU was diagonally across. I suspect the BU student ticket section was in upper deck, above the band. They had some cheers, but most of the rest of their fans were silent unless BU scored.

It's hard to know exactly how many other fans were for BU, but definitely there were a lot of anti-CU fans. You could see the whole other side of the rink cheering when BU scored. That side was BU and UM, but there wasn't a lot of Maize and Blue seen, so I'd guess it was mainly BU fans in those seats.

I didn't stay for the finals, but someone who did could probably relate how many UM fans were present.

I think the crowd is looking older each year.  I don't yell as much or as loudly as I used to. The rink was too quiet at times and so was I.
