And the dome wasn't even close to full. And it was a bizarre atmosphere. NDSU thought they couldn't do anything on public address other than summarize the plays. No music, no "everyone up for the kickoff." It was actually a cool game because the crowd started everything on their own. And there weren't many students there either.

Cannot wait for this weekend. Demand for tickets says the same. I personally believe it's good for all involved, see no reason to run from it. The tailgate will be off the charts and I gaurantee once those lights go out the electricity within the building will be playoff like. Only difference this time around instead of a 70/30 type crowd it will be 95/5 pro bison.
Don't like it, don't come. They're on the schedule, no need for it to be some distraction.
True, a 75% full (maybe less) Fargodome was much louder on that day than many full Fargodomes I had been in before that.
I think you'll be surprised how many UND fans will be in attendance. I'd wager that a lot of Bison fans are selling their tickets for this game and funding future road trips/tailgates with the profits. I'm not one of them but I don't blame those that are one bit. It'll still be a massively pro-Bison crowd but I'd bet it'll be closer to 70/30 than 95/5. I'd also wager that for a good amount of UND fans in attendance this will be their first in-person UND football game in years.
EDIT: 105 listings on Craigslist and ~130 listed on Stubhub. Also, on Stubhub I'm seeing 30+ tickets that have moved since this weekend. Not all of these are going to UND fans obviously but I would guess that more of these resold tickets are getting purchased by UND fans than NDSU fans since most NDSU fans have developed other means of getting tickets since Stubhub is usually pretty quiet for NDSU football games.
