Attendance

“We’re in a basketball town, we play in one of the best facilities in the country, and we have one of the top fan bases anywhere in college basketball. As you look through the top 10 in attendance in the country and Creighton jumps out at No. 6, we’re the school that doesn’t look like we fit there. But once you come to our arena and see how passionate our fans are, what an understanding they have of the game of basketball, it’s really a special place.”
- Creighton coach Greg McDermott (Oct. 16, 2013)

“Creighton had a record 18,859 fans for the Georgetown game. Lots of power schools would love that. Great home court, fans. Hidden gem for years.”
- Andy Katz, ESPN (Jan. 25, 2014)

I am going to be in Omaha for work this week. I'm going to go down to their arena and attempt to buy a ticket off the street before the game. It sounds like it may be a tough ticket to get.

Awesome. Please post about your experience if you are able to go...

Got my ticket. Thanks Traveler.

Creighton will be a middle of the pack Big East team this season. We should win by 7-10.

Line will be us by 5 or 6. It's a nice early season road test, though. Clearly is a tough place to play.

Wear something weird so we can see you on TV. Rainbow Afro wig?

Maybe BigTime will lend him his wig.

I'm in the corner...lower level about 15 rows up. I'm sure I will be the only guy wearing red in a sea of blue and white in my section.

I honestly had no idea their arena was that big and nice. I expect this to be a tough environment to go into in the 2nd game of the season. I know they aren't the same team as last year, but this would be a really nice road win if we can go in there and get it.

That wig was properly buried under the LNC stage bleachers back in 2012. RIP wig.
