Early in the season the Wolf Pack were more in the 2,500-5,000 range. Since UConn left for Storrs, the bump in attendance has been quite noticeable.

Sat January 14: 6,189

Fri Jan 20: 7,032

Sat Jan 21: 4,960

Wed Jan 25: 1,947 (outlier, Wednesday games don’t draw as well as weekends and it was snowing that day)

Sat Jan 28: 6,780

Would love to see the figures for pre- and post-UConn move once the season is over.

Yeah but I don't think it's fair to view it as just Hartford and not CT as a whole. New Haven is like 40ish minutes drive. Why separate the two metro areas? It's really gonna be the CT whalers and that makes sense when you consider other areas that have teams.

Also Cleveland/Cincinnati/Baltimore/Jacksonville/Green Bay/rando Canadian towns/New Jersey! have sports teams lol

Ugh. Real estate agents aren’t even legally allowed to say that. Maybe you need a new agent. 😉

It is also possible they are dealing with very dated perceptions of Milford from maybe the 90’s when money hadn’t poured in yet and schools didn’t perform as well as now.

Please! Just go with an alternative energy supplier such as constellation etc. You can get a fixed rate plan for 2 or 3 years. If you want to do solar more power to you but you DO NOT need to pay Eversource or UI for electricity generation (though you do need to pay them for “delivery fees”).

Idaho stop

>The Idaho stop is the common name for laws that allow cyclists to treat a stop sign as a yield sign, and a red light as a stop sign. It first became law in Idaho in 1982, but was not adopted elsewhere until Delaware adopted a limited stop-as-yield law, the "Delaware Yield", in 2017. Arkansas was the second state to legalize both stop-as-yield and red light-as-stop in April 2019. Studies in Delaware and Idaho have shown significant decreases in crashes at stop-controlled intersections.
