Re: PSC Volunteers
Is that bad for Dsm? How many total members are there now? It wasn't too many years ago they were shooting to get over 1,000. Is it 1200 now?
There's a lot of UNI alumni in Dsm, but we get little coverage of our school, most alumni probably aren't even aware that half or so of our games are on the radio in Dsm, or that on rare occasions a game is on some TV network they may or may not get with their cable/dish. You have to work at being a UNI fan in Dsm and most people don't want to work at it. It's easy and fun to be a Hawk or Clone fan, that's why most people are, including UNI alums.
Also keep in mind there are all kinds of benefits/activities to being a PSC member in the cedar valley. For Dsm folks it is just a straight up donation, you don't feel like you are really a member of anything. I'm not saying there is any kind of blame associated with that, it just is what it is.
How many members are there in the Twin Cities? There's little difference between living there or living in Dsm when it comes to being a UNI fan. How many I-club members are there in Seattle? A bunch I suppose, because it's still much easier for them to follow their team than it is for UNI fans in Dsm.
