Eugene - Have you heard the Civil War game is coming to town? But with the ducks' last two defeats, it seems some hotels are finding fans are bailing out on them. The Red Lion Hotel on Coburg has been booked for this game for the last five months. But recently their reservations have dropped off by about 10 percent.

"2 weeks ago we were full 100% and everybody was revved up and ready for the last hurrah. Now there is some concern about the weather and some people are disappointed and changed their plans," says Patrick Quinlan, General Manager of the hotel.

Hotel employees say the change happened right after the last loss. Though they're hopeful last minute fans will fill up those rooms.
