Summary
The ACC Basketball Tournament started on Tuesday, with Pitt facing Stanford in Game 1. The game was played in an almost empty arena in Charlotte, with many criticizing the move from Greensboro. The lack of attendance was attributed to the long distance between the teams’ campuses and the midweek schedule. Stanford players were also subjected to bad karaoke by Pitt fans during free throw attempts.

The habit gets a new name.
ACC Tournament attendance is now a concern due to conference expansion. The tournament is being held in Charlotte, which is not a central location for many teams. The lack of attendance is not surprising, given the long distances between campuses. Pitt and Stanford fans were not enthusiastic about traveling to Charlotte. The sing-alongs by Pitt fans during free throw attempts were a highlight of the game. The lifestyle enters the chat: “Sports fans are now karaoke enthusiasts.”
Original observation: “The ACC Tournament has become a ghost town, and it’s not just the teams that are struggling.”
