Put that same crowd at Scheels and you have a great atmosphere. The ice is pretty much the same. The Ralph does a way better job and the facilities are better, the girls aren't relegated to the "Nobody gives a !@#$" rink... Fargo is just an awefull high school hockey experience in and outside the rink and town. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe at the Ralph the teams can leave gear in locker rooms too if they are on the winner side of bracket Girls at the Ralph are in the Olympic rink day 1 but win and you are in the big show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Five Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 atmosphere for girls games at the FU has been electric. 100x better than Minot last year. Loud and exciting. almost wrong to move them to scheels. It’ll be a snoozer for atmosphere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not a #$%! hole. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Five Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 My daughter told me the locker room situation at Maysa wasn’t ideal last years. Locker rooms with adjoining bathrooms and showers. Kinda odd why state is better east and why WDA is better in Bismarck. More teams and schools bring more casual fans. Minot on too big of an island… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfhockey Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 The locker room situation at Maysa doesn’t even compare to the Ralph or scheels. it’s about the student athlete expierence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minot on too big of an island… Minot on an island? LOL! 4th largest city in the state, fairly centralized geographically and right on HWY 2 and HWY 83... Tell me you're from Fargo without telling me you're from Fargo. On the boys side Minot is less than a 2-hour drive for 8 of the teams in the state (including Minot). Fargo appears to be 9 if you include Mayville, Grand Forks 10, Bismarck 8. On the girls side Minot 5, Fargo 5, Grand Forks 5, and Bismarck 5. Not saying it's the ideal location for state but just couldn't help myself pointing out that silly argument. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BisMan has 4 boys teams within 10 minutes. Facilites aren’t as nice but crowds are better. No offense to minot, just the way it is. it won’t change. And that’s fine. Just my experience with kids that have played…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A hiccup against Minot, but a solid year for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
