For anyone arguing about attendance, here's a quick reference I just threw together of seats per section. It's only an estimate (including assuming the pep band section has folding chairs instead of a pep band) but it should be pretty close. I found a couple high-res images of a completely empty Hilton and did some seat counting and multiplication to get these numbers. The total is 14408, which is only slightly over Hilton's listed capacity.

Attendance has been cussed and discussed a number of times and as someone who has been a season ticket holder for 20+ years and only missed a couple games we know what is reported is not what are really there. they use season tickets sold and then what happens game day or pre-sales from promotions. from observations the Little Cyclone area has gotten smaller year after year IMO due to game times during the week and the number of other activities kids are involved in.

Thanks. Nice breakout for the circle, parquet vs balcony. That 5500 lower level seems to mesh pretty well with @NWICY 's estimates which I think are pretty accurate.

I can handle it. Anyone with two eyes knows how far off the announced number is.

14384 * .25 = 3596. I'd bet that only gets topped a couple of times per year.

you would be wrong too.
