Makes sense cause students get in free right and there were about 2000 or more students there. Band gets in free as well. So that puts us over 20K. If you add that to “paid attendance”

And a couple hundred more YRCC members.

Anyone saying we underreported attendance needs to go and look at pictures of the home side. Upper deck and the lower level. The attendance was an improvement over our opener last year. With good play these next two weeks, hopefully we will actually be back in that 20K area for Buffalo.

How are the students accounted for?

In Saturday’s late postgame news conference, UL coach Michael Desormeaux didn’t hide his disappointment in several aspects of his team's 38-13 season-opening win over Northwestern State.

But after watching the film, the second-year coach found some silver linings to even the biggest miscues of the game.

Students get digital ticket so every fan in the stadium has a ticket that’s counted.

. . . the accurate statement about attendance is probably every ticket sold and every ticket requested by a student are counted in reporting attendance so in every case now, actual attendance is over reported . . .

I just wanna say that was one of the best officiated games I’ve been to in a while. Kudos to the crew

On a positive note, the highlight of the game for me was that this one got to attend her first ever game at Cajun Field. To say she was pumped was an understatement. She got to meet the cheerleaders, dance to the band, and even got to high five Coach Des. She's been talking about it non-stop (and I do mean non-stop) ever since then.

That's what its all about.

So they get a digital ticket through email? I’m curious as to how this works.

Yes, they have a separate portal using their university email to get digital tickets.
