Corner Tarps off

Not as crowded as Tuesday night but still a large crowd

Got to talk with GM Jamilla Wideman who was the #3 draft pick out of Stanford in 95. Her father was a Professor at Penn and an award winning author back when I was a Penn Undergrad.

Also noticed a shuttle bus from the Metro station. I have wondered if a shuttle bus and metro advertising would increase attendance but I have no idea of the cost

9350 is the capacity at EagleBank with the Tarps off, and in a basketball layout?

The seating layout the Mystics used was a bit different than what we typically see for college basketball. For one, they took away a larger section of seats in 116 for TV cameras. I think there were also some differences with courtside seating (longer press row).

And the 9840 figures from the end of the Larrañaga era were with the old bleachers, so there may be some differences there as well.

i thought i read somewhere it was 10k, but someone here said there where modifications that reduced capacity.
It was originally 10,000, but it's not configured that way for college basketball. You'd have to take away the TV cameras and some other stuff to get back to 10,000
