Hopefully the crowd will fill in along the Husky Walk. We were the only fans for at least 100 feet as they left the gray lot before they got to the band and the tunnel. It was great to see the players, they seemed sincere in their appreciation for the fans.
Perhaps they need to shorten the walk until the crowd gets used to the process. They could start the walk in the paved surface lot that's between the gray lot and the band. I'd also split the band: have one group lead the team to the stadium and the other group can be at the tunnel.
Kudos to Dan Davis and his teammates for suggesting it and to the fans and band for supporting it.
