Here's an interesting article on the "Bowerman Pack" which is a student section at the U of O home meets. The desire is to make track and field popular for students of the university.

So for anyone at the meet? How was the Bowerman pack? What else is the school doing to make meets entertaining? Pro sports figured out they are in the entertainment business a long time ago.
