When I was at Fairfield, we use to have Super Fan dressed up with a cape and mask running up and down the stands, doing the crowd pushups (ten guys holding him above their heads) and egging the Red Sea on. And then we would have always have the unexpected visit from somebody wearing an ape suit. You never knew when he would show, but, when he did the students went crazy. It was wild and probably the most fun I have ever had a sporting event.
Oh, I guess my point is that it is what the students make of it. Going to games was more than just be "entertained" by the basketball. It was an opportunity for the entire Fairfield community to get together and have a great time together whether watching the action on the court or participating in the fun in the stands. It's a shame a bad loss kept the student's away because games are the best way to bring everybody together and to be part of something bigger. I hope they discover their Stags spirit again and not get detered by a bad game. After all, look at what they missed out on...a very entertaining basketball game! :-)
