There are many reasons for students to attend Western home games. Going to home games provides a way to support student-athletes and show school spirit. The games are a great place to hang out with friends or go on a fun weekend date. On top of that, all home games are free to attend for Western students. Many of the 2023 basketball games have interactive flair such as fan color coordination, cheerleaders to rile up the crowd, halftime shows and other activities.
