I told you guys this Saturday night..
Well I'll say this. Going by what the Southern game had and what this game had, I really don't think that official number is far off. I kept looking around at different points to notice a disturbing trend of people STILL getting into the game mid 1st quarter. I'd say when I looked around mid 2nd quarter was about the fullest time. About 9-10 rows each of Top Left and Top Right of UD were empty. No one sat on the hill. The whole 2 sections to the left of Tech fans were empty. There were A LOT of areas throughout where there were 2-3 empty seats on average around people.
With all that said, 27-28K sounds more realistic, so that 25.5K announced doesn't sound too off.
Someone asked me what I thought we had for attendance during the 1st or 2nd quarter and I said 25k maybe 26k. Now my response might have been based on previous attendance figures, but I do not think we he had 30k there on Saturday.
Yeah with lsu playing I know multiple UL students who went to lsu game instead
Had to be more!
wait till next home game!
What is the true capacity of the stadium? I get all kinds of numbers. It is hard to estimate how may are standing up. But my guess is around 600. I walked completely around the stadium and estimated that amount. Looking into the stands from every angle I say a lot of empty seats where when you look from a sitting position it seems full. So the 25K+ may be close....turn stiles would be the answer. If you need to leave and return go through a gate where they scan you out and in....The free loaders that stay under there tents and don't come in just forget about them. They don't count in my book either way........
It's probably a good thing attendance was down. Less people to witness that atrocity!
I have so much trouble believing it was only
25k. Does anyone have a crowd shot from the game?
I can't get upset that 12,000 Southern fans were replaced by 2,000 LA Tech fans.
PS my numbers may be off by a lot, my point stands.
