The Texas Tech Basketball teams had a throw back weekend. The men's and women's teams played in the Lubbock Municipal Coliseum . I have been to the Coliseum before, but I never went to a Tech basketball game there before today. I think a large reason for the change in venue was the United Supermarkets Arena was used for graduation this weekend.
Yesterday, the men had an old timers game, and played their game against Rice and won. Today, the women played against the University of Texas Rio Grand Valley and won.
When I went to the Coliseum, I thought the ease of parking and the closeness and intimacy of the arena was very nice. I thought I would miss the electronics: no jumbo tron, no listing of players and points, rebounds and fouls.
But the intimacy of the of the arena outweighed the lack of the electronics.
It was really a fun experience. If the Lady Raiders have more games in the Coliseum, I would not mind.
