It wasn't entirely empty. I know one guy that was still there. Family season ticket holder since 1975.
Yeah Ive never understood that. When I paid $200 to sit behind rice when przybilla was back in town for the last time I was first car in the parking garage. My buddy and I just walked around the rose quarter for like 3 hours and enjoyed the experience. It was cool that the players could actually hear us but I still think the 300s have a more fun atmosphere.
