2009 Big Ten Wrestling Tournament attendance @ Penn State Bryce Jordan Center
12,650

Session 1: Attendance 4075
Session 2: Attendance 4093
Session 3: Attendance 4482

Let's hope. The UW and Wisconsin Wrestling Fans sure did show what the sport means to us, and set a very high standard for other Big Ten hosts to follow. Too bad more of the local media didn't respond the way the Fans did.

And it used to be: If you bought a subscription to "Amateur Wrestling News" you got one free ticket to the NCAA Tournament.  So... things change.

What was Wisconsin's state wrestling meet attendance like the past few years?
Anyone have the numbers?

Wanting to compare Wisconsin to Ohio, where the B10's are next year.

2011 - 61,856

The armpit of the U.S.?  I think not. 

My magic 8 ball agrees with me that next year in Columbus the attendance record will be broken once again.

Which one did you get? I was expecting one of these, then, out of the blue I got a "I dunno!"

Crazy 8's. No wat Im sayin'?

Time to switch over to the Ouija board.

Amazing to think that Iowa can typically pull in crowds for a dual meets at Carver that closely equate to what was there for any of the sessions.

they have no professional teams to follow, so someone has to be their favorite thing to watch. 

funny... minnesota doesn't have a pro sports team either
