Germanshepherd Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Omaha knocks off undefeated Grand Rapids! Lot of parity in this league, which is nice to see. The margin for error is so small every night out. 1 Quote i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile Atlanta has played five games, and Omaha has played four games. From what I was told Vegas was a (very) late addition to PVF this season, and the league had to scramble to make a 7 team schedule around the available arena dates of every team. May have just been easier had they gone with 6 teams this year 2 Quote Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4_tattoos Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 Seems like LOVB is going to somewhat follow the schedule format of the Premier Lacrosse League. I could be misinterpreting that though. Quote Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4_tattoos Posted February 16 Author Share Posted February 16 It appears next year PVF and LOVB will compete with each other head-to-head during the same time of year. https://www.lovb.com/lovb-pro-101 Quote 2025 Week of January 6 — First Serve President’s Day Weekend — LOVB Classic, in-season tournament April — LOVB Finals Quote Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I really hope the online merch offerings expand a bit. I'd love to get some stuff with Omaha's secondary or tertiary logos. UPDATE: The Supernovas have partnered with local institution Lawlor's to sell a lot more licensed merch than the PVF's basic offerings. I recall the Nighthawks doing the same in the UFL days. https://www.lawlorscustom.com/supernova 1 Quote On 1/25/2013 at 1:53 PM, 'Atom said: For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head.

Germanshepherd Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Went to the Supernovas game today! Another attendance record, this time a little over 11.9k. The atmosphere was great. It was a step down from a college game, but not by as much as I expected. A big part of that was that we didn’t have any team-specific cheers, which hopefully will come in due time. Level of play was also awesome. I was super impressed with the serving, you don’t really see balls bend like that in college. Merch at the arena was super basic, none of that Lawlor’s stuff was there (at least by the section I was at). The merch also didn’t do a good job of establishing our colors since we had a pretty equal mix of light blue, navy, purple, pink, and white stuff for sale. Definitely plan on going again if I have time to make it down. 1 Quote i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They go out there way to point out most of the players in this league have played major D1 volleyball, played in an high level overseas leagues and/or played in international volleyball competition. I never doubted the quality of play would be an issue. 13 minutes ago, Germanshepherd said: The merch also didn’t do a good job of establishing our colors since we had a pretty equal mix of light blue, navy, purple, pink, and white stuff for sale. My only gripe with their branding is they have too many colors. It makes since with actual supernovas being colorful, but perhaps they should have pulled a Steelers move as far as having logo colors vs uniform colors. 19 minutes ago, Germanshepherd said: Another attendance record, this time a little over 11.9k. Realistically where do you think this team will peak for attendance this season? Keeping in mind Omaha is one of the best teams in PVF and Nebraska is easily the volleyball capital of the US. Could you imagine the arena opening up sections that were previously unavailable? How close do you think they could get to reaching the arena's max capacity? 1 Quote Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew it would be high quality, but I was still impressed in person. It’s instantly clear you’re watching a level above college, which is awesome. I don’t think we have any section off limits currently. Lower bowls were near completely full and there were people in the upper bowls around the arena. For a playoff/championship game I think we maybe get up to 15k, especially if it’s on a weekend. The arena’s volleyball attendance record is 15.8k for Nebraska/Creighton, and I don’t think this league is at the point yet where it could surpass the two universities. I was at that NU/Creighton game and there were still some empty seats in the upper bowl, so there’s still room to grow.

Germanshepherd Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Agreed wholeheartedly on them needing to have separate logo and team colors. Pick one of the blues and one of purple/pink and I think it’d be much cleaners. 1 Quote i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4_tattoos Posted February 22 Author Share Posted February 22 Columbus is playing their first home game. Pretty good attendance. I'm sure the upper decks of Nationwide Arena were not made available, but they have the lower bowl about 80% full going off the eyeball test. 1 Quote Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
