    Sunday's 1:00 PM Tip off time

    When I saw the game time was 1:00PM on Sunday I thought what a great way to spend the day.
    Four of us hopped in the car Sunday and drove up the from Des Moines area.

    Great game and was back home by 5:00PM.

    I would really like to see more Saturday or Sunday afternoon games. Looking at the crowd I'm not sure people feel the same way. I know the students are still on break but this team is too good for people not to show up.

    Ditto from Dubuque. I didn't really think much of it until Saturday, but it was a fun easy trip. Left Dubuque around 11 and was home by 5. It was perfect.
    To avoid confusion - my username is baseball (Cy Young award) related, NOT for the Cyclones.

      I agree with the tip off time. We were able to take my wife's parents to the game who live out of time, so 2 more tickets were sold than would have if it was a 5 pm or later tip off.

        Also came up from Des Moines, it was nice to be back on the road home with some sunlight left.

          Yeah, those sunday afternoon tip times are great. It really makes it easy for people to drive up and drive back in one day if they would like.

            Once January hits, I think those afternoon games are nice, as you don't have to worry as much about NFL games, and people can make it to and from their destination rather easy. I would like to see those Sunday games start closer to 2PM (for the reason Silent Earl posted), and those Saturday games start closer to 4-5PM (due to lots of youth leagues taking place during the morning/early afternoon). It's not an ideal tv time though, I'd have to imagine.
            The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.
