The game has been moved from the A&M campus to the Von Braun Civic Center to accomodate the expected crowd.

The game being on a Thursday will put a dent in how many people we have driving up.

Also because the on-campus arena is being renovated.

Playing basketball games on any night puts a dent in attendance even at Bartow, much less traveling to Huntsville

Somehow in our dealings with Auburn they get to pick the refs, the venue, the night, & how much of our concessions we have to pay them.

I'm guessing A&M chose the night, the venue, the refs, & how much we have to pay them to play them up there.

Now that we have heard from both Frick and Frack, let's get back on topic.

There may be a bus from campus for those that don't want to drive. Depends on the interest.
