Making sure I'm at the game early to get a ticket to win a bobblehead is what kept me from signing up along with having passes to the Redbird Room. I knew if we went to the event we would end up socializing and wouldn't get to the arena as early as I would want. Alumni Engagement does a great job with the events. I think this one had everything falling on the wrong side of getting people there. I hadn't thought about holiday gatherings but my guess is that it does play a factor. Everyone is busy this time of year with shopping, get togethers, kid's holiday functions and so much more. I know when they've done one in January Horton is usually packed.
