Attendance for Homecoming 2006

[cajunfan79]

it is sad that it takes all these senerios to happen to get a good crowd. We should be averaging about 25k every game. Another thing is hopefully the alcholics can give up there drinks and come in to the game at least a half hour before the game, and not half way through the first quarter!

Good idea. everyone control your alkeys tomorrow and take all their booze away at 330 so they have no other choice.

I always make sure that my music is off, the flag down, and all the coolers are put away by about 30 before kickoff. the tidying spirit usually spreads and everyone follows suit and we are all of to the game.

If we can get 25,000+, I dont think that there is a way that we can lose. Like bustle said, the crowd is like spinich to popeye, we'll roll over, around, and through them!

I'll be there of course, and I know of at least ten people that are going to the game and it'll be their first time in years. At least one of them has even told me he is now considering buying season tickets and getting on board our train. "Full Steam Ahead!" The red is spreading, people. Let's hope the Cajuns can win and continue the trend! Geaux Cajuns!

Heading out of BR in a few minutes to go to the game... It's good to see the "massive communal experience" happening Cajun-style at Cajun Field... again. Great weather, lotsa fun, and a big win... even though I get up early tomorrow morning and drive to the Saints game, I am going to lose my voice at the UL game.
Attendance: 25,842
GEAUX CAJUNS!!!!!

As I posted in another thread...FYI...As of 1730 today: the north end zone tailgating area is full and for the first time that I've seen (Last 7 years), it also looks like there will be a band set up. The east side is still wide open. Tomorrow will be most excellent.

thats great news. be sure to eat one of you're famous guatamalen chicken sandwhiches for me. I'll be there in spirit, can't get out of nola this weekend!

Attendance.....no excuses for the weekend people. Nice weather, no LSU home game. Believe it or not, some people will find one. Sure, they want to tailgate, but when kickoff arrives, there butts will stay put in the parking lot. As a football fan, and big Cajun fan, I cannot understand why people would not attend this game. Some people say, well if they were winning, or if they put a better product on the field. But yet, these people cry and cry, and don't support the team when they are winning. Go figure! If more people would see it as an oppourtunity to have the game as a family outing, then more interest would be there. One thing is for sure, I will be there winning or losing!

Go Cajuns!!!!!!!!!

i couldn't have said it any better. we are always saying that people in the acadiana area are dying for a decent football program, and that we are a 'sleeping giant'. Well, its time to live up to that reputation. We are defending conference co-champs, we are riding a four game winning streak, and we have one of the top rb's in the country. What else could people be waiting for. The time is now to support the cajun program. Come to the game, spend a few bucks, make some noise, do something to support this program, because now is the time that our program finally has a chance to thrive, we are on the upswing, finally winning. If we support the program, i expect this to continue, if we merely ignore this situation and take this for granted, before we know what hit us, we'll be back in the "bottom 10" rankings on espn...

I cant tell you the last time I had seen so many people out there, i mean i know not enough got through the gates, but there were so many people tailgating sheesh, I couldnt even throw a football more then 8-10 yards.
