I know I'm not the only one excited to have fans back in the stands, and I am sure this forum ranges from a few season ticketholders to folks who rarely if ever attend a game. So, are you planning on watching your team in person this year?
I lived in Iowa for many years and now live in Chicago, so there has never been a season where I saw that many Illini games in person. I think I am going to try to break my record (3 games) this year and hit up four:
1) Dec. 11th vs. Arizona ... going for my 30th birthday, very excited.
2) Dec. 22nd vs. Missouri (St. Louis) ... this has always been high on my bucket list given the unique atmosphere and underrated rivalry, and the timing is just going to work out this year.
3) Jan. 29th at Northwestern ... wouldn't miss a chance to watch the Illini close to home in front of a 70% orange crowd.
4) Big Ten Tournament, hopefully ... love Indy as a city/host, and I had a blast the one time I attended this event!
