When your team draws this kind of crowd, that’s when female athletes deserve exactly the same benefits as men. (Understanding that this is a college team. But thinking about women’s professional soccer and basketball.)
You get what you earn. It took 5 decades for the Husker Volleyball Team to earn this day. Many teams they play can't draw 300 fans to an arena so those teams/schools have to put in the work to build a fan base. Nebraska volleyball started scheduling matches after football games and popping popcorn for fans leaving the football game and inviting them in for free to the volleyball games. That started the creation of the fanbase that led to this event.
Pro teams of any gender of any sport have to show what they deserve, not someone else's glory for the work and effort they put into their success. You have to earn fans, not be given them. I am a Husker VB fan and have been since the late 80s, and I could say that as great as a team they are, and as great a fanbase as they have built, they couldn't sell out the stadium every match, nor could they if it was only offered to the biggest matches...I am not even sure they could sell out the same stadium if they did this as an annual event only. This was a special moment that can't be recreated to get the same effect. If you lowered the bar and pondered selling 20k or even 30k, then that could be achieved against the bigger matches, and then maybe such a sellout streak could be leveraged to sell out a few matches of lesser quality to eventually have a 30k standard sellout home match, but it wouldn't be an overnight success, it would take effort.
@TimothyFitch , exactly! Plus the fact that it's Nebraska! No other fan base is going to fill their stadiums to watch a women's volleyball game. Only at Nebraska will you see this.
Corporate American didn't buy all those tickets it was the fans who bought those tickets. Tickets were even going for over 400dollars on stubhub. Husker volleyball team are queens in Nebraska,
I enjoyed that Husker to Husker interview. It truly was an event for the ages. GBR!
This is amazing! Proud to see so many show up for these beautiful ladies! 💕💕💕
After Omaha and Lincoln Nebraska, that stadium is by quite a bit the third largest city in Nebraska.

This could only happen in Trump country. Donald Trump deserves a lot of credit for bringing the state together. Trump 2024, 2028 and forever.
This has nothing to do with Trump.
Gender pandering - pathetic. We need to stop spotlighting race, gender, sexual preferences, etc.
These girls have fans because they win championships and are good, it's literally the opposite of what you are asserting.
