A Sea Of Red

And it is not even close.

Well if it was a College I would say you can't beat the atmosphere at a Pioneer Girls basketball game!

But I just knew YOU would ignore the cathedral of college basketball located in Durham. But Kansas is a solid 2nd

I see you Allen Fieldhouse and raise you Utah State

Low attendance forces dook Athletics to sell student seats

Student attendance at men’s basketball games has fallen consistently over the last five years, even dropping after Duke won its fourth national championship in 2010. This season, approximately 650 undergraduates have attended each game, 150 fewer than during the 2008-09 season. As a result, Duke Athletics has begun to sell an increasing number of general admission tickets in the student section on a regular basis.

The Palestra is a better atmosphere than Cameron.

The foundation of a great college basketball atmosphere is the students, if students won't even fill 1,200 seats, no longer worthy of even being considered for the top spot. What kind of lame student body won't show up to watch a top 10 team?

And yes, Utah State is a fantastic venue. If they had the history of the bigger programs, it could easily be #1.

Liberty's Vine Center. No contest

Interesting article. I had no idea Duke was having trouble filling the student section at Cameron.

Allen Fieldhouse is unquestionably the best I have been in. Gallagher-Iba used to be right there with them but like the Pit in Albuquerque it appears to have lost some of its luster.

Posts like this are why Im glad I never got into the stupidness that is Duke vs.North Carolina...at least among the fans

I don't think they are the BEST, but Maryland is always crazy.

As a UNC fan, and someone who has attended dozens of games at the Dean Dome, I hate to agree with Sly.....went to Allen Fieldhouse against Missouri and that place was unreal.

Ummm, you guys are most definitely forgetting Claremont-Mudd-Scripps. Kansas has nothing on that...

I changed my vote. I'm going with Hawaii - Hilo. The atmosphere is clean and fresh with gentle ocean breezes. Dont know who sghows up for their games though!

LU, when Vines Center is full, whcih hasn't been that way since Curry left

I think this entire thread was started so that a carolina fan could post that duke article

blwall definately was putting the bait out there.

I know...you just decide to do that on every other topic.

It could be, but their students go way over the line of acceptable behavior. I was not a fan of Redick, but what they yelled at him was just asinine.

you cannot be serious! maybe when the palestra was rocking with the big five back in the day, but duke and Kansas have great atmospheres

Track with me here, smooth. I said Kansas is the top. I'm not a KU fan, but that place is it.

And, you are right that when the Big 5 was at the Palestra, it was one of the top places. Currently it's not. That was more of a shot towards Purple. I expected him to get all riled up, but I guess he's being a bigger man...which is unusual for him.

Ha! I'd seen that article about Cameron but its still an amazing place to play. I was thinking back to the Big 5 days at the Palestra too.
I agree 100% about Maryland fans. They go waayyyyy over the line. At least in Morgantown we just throw things over the line!
I will always be the bigger man! I'll just spike my hair up!

I see what you did there

Not sure what is with Maryland Basketball folks. But does anyone remember the IMS team... Maryland Assault.

Looks like we're starting Monday night's game with 2 Ft's and white's ball on the side.

I'm "barney fife-ing" it right now, but it'll be in the chamber by 7:30 Monday night.
