What? You don't like having batteries thrown at you?

I think they had only enough


Apr 23, 2017, 7:43 AM

people show up to fill half of the lower deck and these pictures are of the other half. Fake news.

Let's assume this is fake news & they had 12,000 show up...


Apr 23, 2017, 7:46 AM

That's still humiliating, and any school that can only draw those numbers should really consider moving down to division II where they can be more competitive.

Sitting here, drinking my coffee, enjoying the rain, and now you have me all nostalgic for the days when we used to beat the Terps .... (no need to dwell on the few times we lost)

Yes, life is good!

filled the lower deck at Clemson for a Spring Game. It use to be that no matter where you sat, you had plenty of room. Winning changed that, and Maryland hasn't won anything since Ralph Friedgen won the ACC in 2001.

They have plenty of money to be in 1A. You really think a school that size should play down?

Here's another shot at the other end of the field.
If it's fake then they sure did a good job making it look empty.



badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

other end of the field? Yes. Other side of the


Apr 23, 2017, 2:30 PM

stadium? No.
Look, I'm not saying they had 30,000 on the other side of the stadium, just they had more than what is being portrayed in the pictures. It's sensationalism, bending the truth, and really just lying.
I can't stand Maryland. Heck the closest I've ever come to getting into a fist fight at a game was in those stands with obnoxious Maryland fans. But I do enjoy some truth in reporting.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Sure. Everybody but these fans wanted to bunch up


Apr 23, 2017, 1:20 PM [ in reply to I think they had only enough ]

with each other. Maybe the writer couldn't see those other 25 or 30 thousand fans.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Probably wanted to limit damage to the stadium so...


Apr 24, 2017, 3:08 PM [ in reply to I think they had only enough ]

they only allowed those fans on one side of the stadium.

lol....There are about 4 times as many people ON the field as


Apr 23, 2017, 7:55 AM

there are in the stands....But to make up for it, those in attendance undoubtedly flipped each other off

If you take the % of what their stadium holds to ours, then not as big a gap as you'd think.

OSU is in a city with 800,000 population,


Apr 23, 2017, 8:43 AM

Clemson is in a city with a population of 15,000. There is no gap.

If Maryland athletics were a city, they'd be Detroit, MI.

A city on hard times managed by incompetent people.

This is amazing! I remember when I was a kid, we feared Maryland and were beaten by them many times. Things certainly have changed! Now we are feared! Feels good to be a Tiger!

That move to the BiG is really paying off.

Maryland is a lacrosse school. Scar is a WBB school.

Everyone knows this. It's unfair to expect fans to show up for a practice of a sport they don't care about.

Any obscure 70s or 80s band reunion tour would draw more.

I bet there was a bunch of leftovers in the concession stands, and great parking too.

Stadium would've been full if the Md parole boards were fully staffed.
