The same thing that is up with the constant booing at Phog-Allen....and Rupp....and Cameron.....and Assembly Hall.....and the Breslin Center.....and....well you get the idea!
Other than booing the refs, I can't recall booing in Rupp since the Gillispie years.
 
At the end of blowout wins a walk-on by the name of Tommy Luce checks in and he is a Paint Crew favorite....they shout "Luuuuuuuuuuuuce!".
 
Top 5 arena in the country. We do have a lot of "get off my lawn" fans though. We are just really passionate about our basketball.
 
whiniest fans in the nation. Every call, pu fans think they got screwed, and that it is a vendetta. The purdue howl is alive and pathetic. Booing is negative, and that is purdue.

Swing and a miss. Try again jimmy.
 
How soft have we gotten as a society that people complain about booing? Lol some MSU fan was upset Maryland booed them on Sunday.
To be fair, that was way out of context. They booed the players because of what was and us going on, and none of them had any part of it. That was my point.

It’s called home crowd in basketball. Anytime a call that may have been good but is even slightly questionable, the crowd boos. If it’s a bad call, which happens a bit in college basketball as we all know, the home crowd goes berserk. It’s just basketball
 
Purdue D is unreal tonight. Purdue shooting like crap and still up 15.
 
It's usually packed because they're trying to escape the smell outside.

Hey look, another IU fan who has never been to Assembly Hall.

Do you buy your IU gear at Walmart too?

Aside from ND, it was probably the toughest place we've played thus far. UK doesn't count, because we gave up...the crowd of grandpa's with their klan suits underneath their go big bluuuuue shirts, mostly just grunted in pleasure.
