Cat/Griz Bball

I am just curious for Cat/Griz bball games why they don't play both games on the same day/location? Is it because of ticket revenue or what? It would be nice to be able to drive up to Bozeman and see both games on the same day? I am just curious why they don't ever do that?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't they used to?

Yeah, I do remember some of the games being in the afternoon with the girls game first and then the guys. Just curious why they never have this anymore? It would mean packed houses for both games GUARANTEED!

....At least play them the same weekend at the same place!

Just curious. Living in Seattle, the P-C capitol of the world makes me wonder, which team would get the prime time evening tip-off? The women...or the men?

I know the the Lady Griz requested this years ago. They felt the program had grown enough that it would support itself. They didn't want to be the mens "little sister".

Actually for several years the ladies outdrew the men by quite a bit- by no means were they the "little sister", they were griz BB.
