College Basketball Starting Soon Without Fans
In a normal year, the college basketball season would have started by now. With this being 2020 and all, it's starting the day before Thanksgiving. I'm an Illinois fan. I'm not a season ticket holder, but I know people who are and I buy 2-3 games a year off of them to go watch. Illinois is ranked 8th in the nation in the pre-season. I can't imagine what it would be like to be one of these people who invested all the time and money over the last however-many years hoping this team would eventually be good, and now they are good and you can't go to the games because of COVID-19. What a bummer. I'm sure the Iowa fans and season ticket holders feel the same way. At least I'll be able to watch the games on TV. And I'd rather they be good than bad, even if I can't see them in person.
