Maisie Boesiger opened up about the dedication of the Nebraska volleyball fans. She shared she was amazed to see 92,003 fans, who had shown up to support the team when she was in her sophomore year in August 2023.

During an interaction with 1890 Nebraska released in September 2025, Maisie Boesiger spoke about the special feeling that she got when she experienced it, adding (01:24):

“They show up every single day without fail, like packing Memorial Stadium, 92,000 fans. That was my sophomore year, and I still cannot believe that happened. It almost feels like a movie when you see anything about it, or see the pictures or the videos. I cannot believe that Husker Nation seriously packed 90,000 people in Memorial Stadium for us.

Notably, on Volleyball Day in Nebraska in 2023, Memorial Stadium, typically known for hosting Cornhuskers football, saw a record-breaking attendance as Nebraska defeated Omaha 3-0, setting a new record for a women’s sports event. The previous record of 91,648 fans had been set in April 2022 in Barcelona during a Champions League match between FC Barcelona and Wolfsburg.
