No one is going to stand up in front of you. “Duke must place the portable stairs in the space at the user’s control and not block the egress path for the seating area (below),” Jackson wrote in February.The number of people who used the space during each game varied “based on need, but we do not maximize capacity due to cameras, cases and other personal needs of occupants,” Jackson wrote. You are not going to hear a lot of people yelling in your ear like you do when you were on the floor. The Pirates have met the Blue Devils 21 times, all at Cameron Indoor Stadium, and lost each of them. 1 ranking this week.Look, Duke’s overall record inside Cameron Indoor Stadium speaks for itself: 895-161, a win rate of 85 percent, and 537-66 under Coach K, a win rate of 89 percent.But Krzyzewski’s non-conference record inside the 9,314-seat little slice of heaven speaks to some kind of mystical powers.As a closing example and another chance for a cheap shot at those Kentucky fans responsible for a large chunk of the venom that the Duke basketball program endures, following the only time Kentucky ever dared to challenge the non-conference voodoo of Cameron Indoor Stadium with Coach K present (Nov. 19, 1988), the Wildcats had to limp back home — like so many non-ACC opponents before then, ever since, and hopefully for years to come — with a 25-point loss in tow.Build your custom FanSided Daily email newsletter with news and analysis on Duke Blue Devils and all your favorite sports teams, TV shows, and more.Your privacy is safe with us. The only non-conference game vs Charlotte on Halloween. Fortunately, Krzyzewski’s record in now-300 non-conference home games across his 40 seasons at Duke suggests I shouldn’t have much to worry about, at least not for as long as the now-72-year-old sticks around and Cameron doesn’t fall to the ground.But even the Blue Devils’ 292-8 clip in such games under Coach K doesn’t do justice to the power of the hexes that the modern-day patrons of Cameron somehow put on non-conference visitors. The most recent game came in November, 2013, a nine-point Duke … As you see, with Notre Dame playing in conference this year, there are no tuneups. I’m always a believer that safety for our crew is important, but that’s not my area of expertise. Harris said he started down the ladder, but because it wasn’t set correctly on the bottom, it fell and narrowly missed hitting a woman sitting below.
Not until you score your tickets for home games at Wallace Wade Stadium! The ladders were put back in the booth at the start of the second half, too.“Because the portable stairs are placed in the booths during game action, they can lower themselves as needed or they can request assistance from game operations personnel,” Jackson wrote in an email to The News & Observer in February. I’ve done games in all kinds of spots all over the country.
During home games for the Duke Blue Devils basketball team, the stadium is filled with the team's colors of Duke blue and white. Harris was left hanging by his arms from the floor of the crow’s nest, until people below could get him down safely. Cragg said a review of Cameron as part of the athletic facilities upgrades going on at Duke led the school to make changes this summer.“It was not an ideal setting by any stretch,” Cragg said of the crow’s nest. Asked last January how people in the crow’s nest would exit the structure in the event of an emergency, Duke basketball spokesman Jon Jackson wrote in an email, “the usher and game operations personnel would go to those spaces and assist with portable stairs and direct egress, if necessary.”The broadcasters and others who were seated in the crow’s nest were responsible for lowering the ladders themselves or asking for help from Duke staff to make the area accessible, according to Jackson. Getting in or out of the crow’s nest meant climbing up and down the metal steps, which were angled so users could climb them facing either forward or backward. Duke’s revised schedule is out and here it is. That would have violated fire codes. Real-time updates and all local stories you want right in the palm of your hand. So too is the program blindly stamping the attendance as 9,314 for every game inside Cameron Indoor Stadium. Each ladder was placed in the booth at game time and lowered again at the game’s halftime.
