They should avoid showing the "crowd", no one is there.
I thought Des Moines wanted to host a Trials?
The crowds are always sparse for the first day and a half, but you might not get a full house even on Saturday. One day USATF will wake up and allow Philly, LA or NY to host the Champs.
Let's see...
NY epic fail on the DL meet.
LA epic fail at Home Depot Center.
Philly too broke to bid.
Stop blaming the cities, it is the country that doesn't care about the sport, including Des Moines that is too stupid...they offered jr. high and high school kids free tickets...
They needed to offer them busses and lunch and dinner.
That is where the supermarket money should have gone.
The only place that would put butts in the seats for today would be Eugene.
Even a week after NCAA's, I bet they get at least 5-6k today.
