69% clowns
It will be far from 50%, but it will be too many.
When your non-conference home schedule has been East Texas A&M, Southern, South Dakota, Rider, and USC Upstate they should literally be paying us to show up at Carver!
Nobody was there for NW or most big ten games last year.
To be fair, I paid the extra online fees for tickets for USC Upstate. Every ticket was $1.
Iowa State fans first have to find Iowa City. Maybe they'll just follow the team bus.
Yep, me too. Had no idea. Marketing is not good for basketball.
Go look at the ticket availability on the Iowa athletics website.
Fans are NOT showing up for ISU.
This is what apathy looks like.
4k tickets available for a top 5 IN STATE opponent.
A lot of people are no longer upset about Fran ball. They just don't care.

Yep. They're doing everything they can to direct the program to a better place!
I say we sacrifice all the 60+ yr old Iowa fans at the game by telling them all the ISU fans slept with their mothers and shot their dogs, so that we can see a bunch of senior citizen Iowa fans fighting all the Cyclone fans that decide to show up in our arena.
That would be far more entertaining than whatever the f*** will take place on the court this Thursday..................just sayin.
That would require taking time off work to leave early to get there from Ames/DSM area, I don't see that as plausible for many especially with kids.
Game should have been a Saturday night. Would have sold out in a hurry.
It seems like people try and mess up things.
Stuff is expensive now. People dropping a lot of money want to make a day of it and enjoy it. Not leave work early, drive across the state, eat fast food, then drive back home, get to bed late and get up to go to work.

I bought two from a friend at a discounted rate and have buyers remorse. Not a lot of desire to watch this team.
It would but the truth is it doesn't matter how good we are at basketball. We were ranked as high as #3 and were a 3 seed in the tourney not that long ago. Iowa fans are becoming extremely fickle. I understand why some people don't want to go but there are more than enough people in the IC area and we will be outnumbered.
You guys show up for your team, we make excuses why we don't have to.
It’s actually kind of surprising how few ISU fans there ever are in Iowa City, even when they’re good. From my experience, a good Nebraska/Wisconsin football or Illini basketball team brings way more.
Eastern Iowa fans blow for b-ball.
Been saying that for the last decade.
Specifically talking about these cities & the surrounding areas when I say sucky Eastern Iowa fans: Iowa City (obviously), Cedar Rapids (double obviously), Dubuque, Waterloo, Muscatine, Bettendorf, Clinton, Cedar Falls, Ottumwa, & Davenport.
Hats off to Hawkeye fans in Des Moines & Sioux City though.

100%. Everyone I know is too busy with kids club sports. I can't find anyone who wants to go anymore. I'm still trying to find a way to get there but even I have to coach until 6.
Lets face it, Carver is a lame atmosphere. I wouldn't waste $35 to go there!
I hope everybody that is complaining about fans not showing up will be at the game themselves.
Good, we don’t need any fat ass isu fans stinking up the place.
But how often is one checking the online schedule?
I still have to coach but am going to try to make it after our game tomorrow.
