Maybe more fans at Fed-Ex than we will draw all year. It's amazing to me that we have a basketball mecca, a city that truly loves and supports basketball, just 2 hours away. In our city and State basketball is an after thought. I usually make it over for a Grizzlies game or two ever year. Great to see that a pro team has not hurt your attendance much, if at all.
I love UALRs arena...you guys just need 1 good NCAA run to get Little Rocks attention IMHO.

I wish you were right. Little Rock is a pretty bad sports town. Amazing you can draw what you do with an NBA team in the same arena. Not sure NBA execs are thrilled with the Grizzlies attendance numbers, but they do extremely well in a city your size. I was at the arena in OKC 2 weeks ago. They really have great support for the Thunder considering the size of their city.
If you look at the Vancouver Grizzlies...and compare them to the Memphis Grizzlies...it's like night and day...I think Memphis has really gone all-out for the Grizz but attendance could be better.

Gasol, Randolph, Conley are great...I love Tony Allen's intensity and like our "young guns" in Jon Leuer and Jamaal Franklin...we just need to get healthy.
Here is to a fun injury free game. 04-cheers
Hope it is injury free, but I am afraid it won't be much fun for our fans.

The Grizz so far have actually outdrawn the Tigers--

Tigers avg--15,600, will go up when conference play starts
Grizz avg--16,072, 20th out of 30 in the NBA--could be higher but still respectable.

As one poster said, it would be great to get some good NCAA tourney runs going for you, maybe build up a little local rivalry with y'all.

Have a great game.
Oh, and come on over to our game thread...they get really interesting and entertaining, I promise 03-lmfao
