Lando Griffin Posted January 30 Posted January 30 Very few tickets left on secondary sites, so should be a full house Quote

cgeldmacher Posted January 30 Posted January 30 BTW, as my wife and I were walking into the game against VCU, there was a line of students outside the building that I am pretty sure did not get in. As soon as we passed them and entered, we went to our seats and the student section was completely full. Also, I guarantee that the students who packed the student section for that game are hooked and will be back. You don't get a much better experience than they got that night. #studentsectionisback TheA_Bomb, Adman, TheBand and 1 other 4 Quote

When I was undergrad you’d have to go to a designated location (there were usually a few) to pick up a ticket for the big games. It was still free, but you had to put in the effort to go and do it. Kind of guarantees the student section will be full of kids that at least care enough to go out of their way to get a ticket. Quote
slu72 Posted January 30 Posted January 30 Anyone know how many students live on campus? Those who do should go to the games. When I was there in the Bronze Age, SLU was largely a commuter school. Those kids rarely showed up. Campus residents did and had to drive to either the Arena or Kiel. Kiel was a good move. Good crowds mostly. Quote
Taj79 Posted January 31 Posted January 31 According to stats, the 2023-24 school year saw Saint Louis University list it's undergrad population at just over 8500 students. A quick count of housing options listed at SLU shows available housing spaces for 4100 undergrads (not counting two halls reserved for post graduate students). The options are a far cry from my years there when your only options were the Griesedieck Complex and Marguerite Halls. Those are still there but now you have Fusz, Reinhart, Spring, Grand, Marchetti Towers, Grand Forest, DeMattias and the Village Apartments. We did have the Fireline with free transport to games both for basketball and hockey. Quote
Deutschkind Posted January 31 Posted January 31 When I was undergrad in 09-13, by far the majority of students either lived on campus or within a block or so of campus in places like Coronado, the Lots, etc. cgeldmacher 1 Quote
