Attendence

[cycloneworld]

Haven't seen any discussion on the attendence. 42,531

Let me repeat that...42,531...for a team with a 49,000 seat stadium...season opener...high expectations...

We can talk about the positives/negatives on the field but to me, this number is unacceptable. Why are we spending tons of money to bowl in the south endzone when we can't fill up what we've already got?? To make a few extra bucks when we do sell out to Iowa/Nebraksa???

42,531...unbelievable.

Bowling in doesn't add hardly any capacity it is all about the revenue. I don't know I think attendance was solid for a Thursday night. If its 42 at UNLV I will be concerned

Screw the attendance photos... those pics do sound interesting.

In all honesty though, I'd love to see any photos people have of the game. Living in Colorado sucks sometimes.

the bra bong pics or pics of the stadium? :wink0st:

 

[ISUFan22]

the bra bong pics

Yeah...I don't buy that one for a second!

 

[ripvdub]

The other side of the stadium had more people in the corners than that i believe. Except the visitors section was completely empty. I thought we would be a lil closer to 44k but it seems right i guess.

you caught me redhanded! no bra bong pics...from this game...but just wait until the season gets going.

Weren't all of those seats in that picture Toledo's 2,000 to 3,000 tickets that they are supposed to sell?

If that is the case then I am really pleased with the attendence numbers. It look very full last night.

i sit in section 13...so the picture is of the north east corner...where the students sit.

Whenever they showed an overhead shot on the TV, the stadium really looked packed. Lots of red in the stands and the hillsides looked pretty well filled also.

I was surprised to hear that attendance was only 42,531. The appearance on the screen was much more.

 

[cstrunk]

The attendance figure surprises me too. I thought it was around 44-45k.

As for the student section corner looking empty up top.... look at the bottom section which is PACKED. Way more students there than actual seats. If every student would stay with a number on the benches, a lot more of that corner up top would have been used. You can't blame the students for wanting to get closer eh??
