The box score has it as 3876, in fact.  Was the ARC anything like this full, in reality?  That's getting up close to a sell-out.  Was the mezzanine fairly full?

3876 is about 3/4 capacity, which sounds pretty accurate.  It was a surprisingly good crowd and a suprisingly good atmosphere.  The students were great.  I was really impressed that so many stayed.

Akron was called for 23 more fouls tonight - by a different officiating crew no less.  I was at the game and can attest to the fact that they were jobbed on each and every one.

I had to laugh when I saw that Akron got 29 free throws compared to only 10 for Cleveland State tonight, and they still lost.
