Let’s get something straight. Every real college town has us lefties. Boise has some lefties that are probably more virulent than most.
I lived in Idaho for 15 years and Boise for the latter 12, got married and divorced, so I can tell you that Boise has its pluses and its issues. It’s HAD a lot of growth that centered on house-flippers… and that jacked up cost of living and traffic and everything else eventually. Boise had, after the Fiesta Bowl win, a ton of growth in the Treasure Valley and a wee bit of stadium growth. Yet that often didn’t sell out the stadium before this year. That’s to say all the growth in Boise hasn’t really helped Boise State (and I’m noticing there isn’t really plans to expand the stadium in Bozeman over 30,000, either). Get over it… all sports are niche.
