On Saturday, the women play Eastern Michigan in Ypsilanti, MI! They are requesting all Falcon Faithful's to consider making the trip north!!!
Here's some of the reasons you need to be there:
--- It's the shortest road trip of the year (68 miles)
--- Cheap $3 tickets can be purchased through the BGSU Ticket office
--- BGSU and EMU are tied at 7-3....important game for tournament seeding
You can read all the reasons on the team's blog at
http://www.togetherweattack.blogspot.com/
A huge crowd could make the EMU arena feel like
OUR home court! As I recall from previous years, EMU doesn't attract a large crowd, and there have been more BG fans there for previous games!
Besides all that.......the players and coaches WANT you in the stands rooting for the Falcons!!! (It
REALLY does make a difference.)
To summarize:
Who: BGSU at Eastern Michigan
Where: Ypsilanti, MI (68 miles north of BG)
When: 2pm this Saturday, February 12th
Cost: Tickets can be purchased through the BGSU Ticket Office for $3 (877-BGSU Ticket)
Please come out and help us beat the Eagles in this
HUGE road game!

I'm planning on being there with at least 2 of my daughters. According to EMU's site, you can get in for free if you wear red.

If Falcon Boy was still here he may wear red to get into the game and then go to the restroom and change into brown and orange. Where is FB?? Did Birdman get him???

Hey everybody. Spread the word about the ticket deal to everyone you know. We want to "Pack their House" with our colors. Wear your Orange!! It does make a difference to the coaches and players to have a large crowd rooting for them.

Don't know if anybody has listened to the post-game audio from LP, but she thanked the BG faithful for making the trip and said "without them today I don't think we could have got this win."
Very nice comment to say the least!

Total attendance was 700, even after all the discounted tickets and free admission. I would say there was only about 200 EMU fans, which is pathetic for a 16-8, 7-3 team. I would say about 500 BG fans. Not bad, personally I expected more. Honestly, some probably stayed home to watch the OSU - WIS game.

Eastern Michigan has pathetic home attendance? What a shock.

Having your loyal fans there and behind you certainly makes coming back in the 2nd half a lot easier, especially when you're tired and hurting. Well said by the Princess of Plain City.
