RE: Weber State fans want in the WAC....

Just say Noe! to Weebe.
best post I've seen on the subject. Funny story, the first time I had ever seen a ghetto in person was in Ogden, Utah! And I grew up 1.5 hrs north of LA!!!
The place is a modern day ghost town, the Mall was torn down and was it ever rebuilt? I don't know that I've ever seen anything that would suggest otherwise. Even the strip malls and used car dealerships are in other cities that surround Ogden, they can't even attract suburban blight!! The town has a River that runs through it and it's full all year 'round, but no one even pays attention to it. I did hear that they've torn down a bunch of homes and are making way for something new along the river, but it's almost too little too late.
I've only been on Weber's campus a few times, and it's about what you would find at a JuCo in SoCo, nothing going on at all.
Godfather is right about the arena, it is nice, probably better than the Chemical Center in Salt Lake, and although bigger than the DGS by 2,000 seats, it too is a ghost town usually. Even when Weber is on the up and up in BB.
Honestly, I think Utah Valley State has more potential, and that's saying something because it sucks too!
