I thought I read somewhere that there will be a men's scrimmage some time Saturday morning in The Scotty. Am I imagining things or is that happening? If so, what time?
I don't remember there being a direct relationship between the fire marshall comments and building the TAC, but I do remember that all games that were full were listed at 4800, even if there were obviously more than that. I remember the Old Dominion game in 1980--it wouldn't have been possible to get another person in that gym--there were hundreds of people standing around the corners of the court. That was supposed to have been the largest crowd ever in the gym, but it was officially listed at 4800.
This is true....... I was there, as well. The line stretched out down to Tech Drive and up past the swimming pool. They absolutely could not get another person in that place. There was nothing more intimidating than every single person clapping and stomping on those wooden bleachers in unison until ODU scored their first basket. I thought that building was going to come down that night. It was one of the best places to watch a game in the country. Pure noise and you couldn't hear the person next to you say anything. I can't imagine what it was like for any opposing team.
