Top 25 talk

[dansand]

Well, I can't top David. I think I'm at 23. All but seven have come in the last two years, so with the exception of Grinnell & Bradley, I think they are each of the school's current gyms:

Augustana               Robertson Field House (Peoria, IL)
Beloit                  Simpson
Carthage                St. Ambrose
Chicago                 St. Norbert
Coe                     UW-LaCrosse
Cornell (IA)            UW-Oshkosh
Elmhurst                UW-Platteville
Grinnell (old gym)      Wartburg
Illinois Wesleyan       Webster
Millikin                Wharton Field House (Moline, IL)
North Central           Wheaton
North Park

I totally muffed up the poll then, 24 if you count Baldwin-Wallace and VanAndel

Adrian--Albion--Alma--Calvin(old)--Calvin(new tommorrow)--Hope(Civic)--Hope(Dow)--Hope(DeVos)--Kzoo--Olivet(old)--Olivet(new)--Trine--Wittenberg--Wooster--Capital--Baldwin-Wallace(women)--Aurora--Wheaton--Carthage--UWStevens Pt.--Aquinas--Cornerstone--Chicago(old)--VanAndel Arena--Salem

[Marty Peretz]

Amherst, Williams, Wash.U., NYU, Salem Civic Center, Smith, Union, . Thought there would have been more. I'm still thinking.

[Dave 'd-mac' McHugh]

This one certainly had me thinking:
Goucher... Catholic... Gallaudet... Marymount... Mary Washington... St. Mary's (MD)... Salisbury... York... Hood... Frostburg... Johns Hopkins... Stevenson... F&M... Messiah... Ursinus... Gettysburg... Washington Col... Ramapo... Randolph-Macon... Virginia Wesleyan... Roanoke... Centre... Allegheny... Salem Civic Center...

That is 24... and I know I am forgetting a couple from awhile back.

If you were on a d3 team (as a player or coach), do you get to count all those gyms?

[pbrooks3]

13 D3 venues where I've attended games:

Rhodes
Centre
Hendrix (old & new)
Millsaps
Wooster
Trinity (TX)
Sewanee
Wittenberg
LaGrange
Southwestern
Oglethorpe
Adrian
Olivet

[Mr. Ypsi]

My total would be a shamefully low dozen or so.  When a student I'm reasonably certain I went to all nine CCIW venues (Carroll was still a member at the time), and MAY have gone to a nearby non-con venue or two, but can't think who it would be. 

Since those Jurassic days (which technically may not even count, since I believe my student days pre-date d3 ), I can claim only three: Wheaton and IWU are both in new facilities since then, plus Adrian.  I've toured DeVos (Hope) and hope to see games there in March, but that will be if IWU makes the WOMEN's final four.

[Wolfpac]

Here is my list of visits:

Catholic                            Elizabethtown                   Rosemont 
Arcadia                             Scranton                           Salem (finals)
Eastern                             Wilkes(Kings)                   Ursinus
Goucher                             Marywood                        Waynesburg (pa)
Messiah                             Misericordia                     
Franklin/Marshall                Wesley
Widener                             William Patterson
Immaculata                        Rutgers
Neuman                              Gettysburg

Did not get up to Centenary, Baptist Bible, or Philly Bible yet.  If you count the Palestra, and Madison Square Garden I have seen UMMA and NotreDame Mryland women vs Cabrini there.......  oh and I live at Cabrini.

The classic rock station that I listen to has a saying...

Songs you can't forget from times you can't remember.

Or, as the saying goes, "those who remember the sixties weren't IN the sixties"!

[With it hopefully understood that 'the sixties' actually ran roughly 1965-74.  I have vague recollections of some of that time. ]

[BJ - DSU SID]

Interesting question, so I re-searched it.

Men's Game in 24 different gyms (Lincoln, Lebanon Valley, Moravian, Scranton, Hampden-Sydney, Va. Wesleyan, King's (Pa.), Del. Valley, Lycoming, Drew, Albright, FDU-Florham, Wilkes, Misericordia, Arcadia, Muhlenberg, Cabrini, F&M, Goucher, Elizabethtown, Manhattanville, Alvernia, Gwynedd-Mercy, DeSales).

Women's Game in 38 different gyms (Goucher, Haverford, Johns Hopkins, Embry-Riddle (Fl.), NYU, Washington (Md.), Case Western, Chicago, Dickinson, Gettysburg, Muhlenberg, McDaniel, F&M, Susquehanna, Kean, Gwynedd-Mercy, Scranton, King's, Del.

Wheaton IL (the old venue, Centennial Gym, and the new venue, King Arena, occupy the same space but the latter is oriented E-W whereas the former was oriented N-S; therefore, I'm only counting it once)
UW-Whitewater

And here's the weirdest one: Manley Field House at Syracuse University, the home of the Orange prior to the opening of the Carrier Dome. I saw them play Westminster (PA) there once, back when the Titans were NAIA.

[Mr. Ypsi]

Greg, don't do this to me!   If Centennial and King are only counted as one, my pathetic total drops even further!
