Things are just different in Central New York. The number of fervent fans that showed up on a bitterly cold, rainy Friday night just to see the Syracuse Orange make their unofficial debut in the Carrier Dome was unbelievable.
The spectators that braved the storm were treated atypically on a night that won’t be forgotten any time soon.
The 40 minutes of action that was broken up into four quarters of 10-minute basketball featured mostly memorable, yet one very forgetful moment. The Orange team defeated the White team 77-72 on a night that featured plenty of notable moments.
