Cal State's 'Break the Record' Push Imperiled by Weather
Cal State San Bernardino is hoping to break the school record for attendance at a school sports event when the men's basketball team plays Humboldt State at Coussoulis Arena at 7:30 tonight.
Tickets have been given to school kids and distributed by area Baker's restaurants ...
But you have to figure that enough people have looked at weather reports to pretty much quash any broken records tonight.
The record is 4,297, for a Cal Poly game in 2002 when the Coyotes were ranked No.1 in the nation in Division II and unbeaten.
Cal State has given away far more tickets than that 4,297 number, and a spokesman two days ago said it "would be interesting" if everyone actually used those tickets.
No worries. Not with the weather calling for significant rain starting about 4 p.m. (Get a current San Bernardino weather forecast here.)
We are weather sissies, here in SoCal, and if any sort of storm shows up (let alone the big one forecast) ... scads of people who might have checked out the game and the arena ... will stay home.
Pretty significant game. Cal State and Humboldt are tied for the CCAA lead with 7-2 record.
You might get wet going to the arena and returning to your car ... but it will be nice and dry inside the arena.
