Regular Season Game in Chicago
Posted: Thu Jun 07, 2018 4:59 pm
Has WIU ever played a game at Soldier Field or Wrigley? There are 2 MIAA (A Division 2 Conf Central to KC) that play a game at Arrowhead Stadium every year. It's a big deal, and both schools get a pretty good turnout. Usually around 30,000 or so, as they both have pretty good Alumni numbers in Kansas City.
I'd love to see Western get something started in Chicago with another team. Eastern Illinois or Northern Illinois maybe? It would be good revenue for the team and also a great way to reach some Chicago area Alums, and maybe drive up some out of town attendance at home games. Also good for recruiting. Thoughts?
