The showing was still terrible. We’ll probably finish bottom 1/4th of the league in attendance in a year where you are #1 in the conference.
We invite people. We say “come check out the Cajuns.” They have not come this year. Not 1. I know long time Cajun fans that have not shown up.
We show up, young kids in tow. It’s not easy, but we do it nearly every game.
Acadiana, you need to do better. Martin Hall, you need to make a freaking effort to market athletics. You’re not going to do it, though. You just won’t. You’ll just not acknowledge the issues with football. You clearly don’t care about basketball. You’ll be complacently satisfied with baseball and softball. You’ll see a modest boost with the stadium renovations next year, then it will go back to normal. The same 14-16 k that always show up.
Who wants to show up when the in game experience sucks? With kids, it's expensive...too expensive, unless you want to drop $100 on drinks, popcorn, etc. and miss half the game playing vendor Roundup ..last night, the parachute drop was good, the cell phone black out was cool, but it's boring after the 3rd time...

This one ain’t on Martin hall. The promotion was top notch. The in game was top notch. It was actually a fun time regardless of the outcome. It’s just time to come to grips that Acadiana just doesn’t give a fk about the Cajuns. Period.

The Air Force simulator was fun. I enjoyed it along with others that participated.

Ticket specials. Military appreciation. Free beer/popcorn with military ID. Air Force simulator. Social media posts were on fire. I got multiple emails all week. I’m
Not sure what else they can actually do to get people to care.

The only thing I’d like to see is a bigger push on campus. Like actual signs promoting the games. But yeah, you’re right.
