When the tournament was held in Greenville, attendance was great for all games. The Tobacco Road schools did not want to play in Greenville because they said it was essentially a home game for Clemson. So, where has the tournament been held for the last several years? I don't know about the financial situation when the tournament is held in Durham but the conference made money when it was held in Greenville.

Move the tourney to downtown Charlotte. The new Knights stadium is awesome.

Why would you want a venue change when we play so well there? Our team is built for that ballpark. Keep it there please so we can win acc championships. Forget attendance

yep in 80's the G-Braves stadium was packed. BUT I think it was FSU coach that complained about it being a home field advantage for the Tigers and it was taken away.

If I’m not mistaken, they play it in Hoover, AL every year.

And I’d bet it’s a big deal for that community and the locals always support it. Kind of like a smaller scale Omaha.
People in Raleigh-Durham don’t give a crap. The ACC is lucky if those people show up to see their own team play.

Because the site is convenient to four teams in the conference but the sport is not basketball.

The ACC officials are a bunch of clowns. With 3 teams in the Triangle area I feel that is giving those teams an advantage because they do not have to travel at all. They don’t like Greenville because it is like a home game for Clemson! OK I can understand their point but come on! Last year they held the tournament in Louisville of all places!

If I am not mistaken Greenville still holds the attendance record, something like 42000 total attendance. It was double elimination then, 8 teams.

ACC cowed to Mike Martin complaining that greenville was Home field advantage for Clemson. Disregard the fact that ACC basketball tourney has been played on Tobacco Road forever with no issue

Heck do what Basketball does! Move it every third year. In other words play it in Charlotte two years running, then Atlanta, then Jacksonville and finally Washington/ Richmond and go back to Durham, all in a decade. The city/area with best crowds hosts for the next four years and perhaps Swoffie and crew will be long gone so common sense can prevail!
Go Tigers!

Unless you're at the game, no sense in complaining about attendance.

I like the discussion despite not being at the tournament. Some of us either have to work or cannot afford the trip. All I was suggesting was to move the event like the ACC does for other sports and compare attendance accordingly. I was in no way complaining.
Go Tigers!
