Alltech was a step forward in terms of growth, but a step back in terms of atmosphere. Atherton was small potatoes but man was it electric. Standing room only, packed in like sardines, super loud with the crowd banging and stomping on those wood bleachers. The civic center took that a step further...it was basically a bowl and it felt like the crowd was right on top of the mats...it was dark and loud...noise makers and glow sticks everywhere...the fan bases were super close to each other and it got rowdy in there...it was dark for the finals with a spotlight on the mat...i saw orange for a week from that old Frankfort High mat...what we've gained in size we've lost in atmosphere
