Lowest attended bowl was 20,000 last year. The year before us they had 29,000 paid attendance for Ohio vs Troy
Listing your A, B, C, D gave the impression that you just don't care and that is something to be concerned about. If you have personal reasons for not going, that's one thing, but to say "I don't feel like..." after only 3 years of success does not bode well for where we want to be. I know several people that are saying the same thing. Ask TxSt fans if they feel like dealing with the cluster that is New Orleans. I am not doubting your support or fanhood, just adding that I share the same concern as duggie.
Fair enough. But I think we have bigger problems than a slight or even a significant dip in our Bowl attendance. I would love to see the demand we've had in past years for the Bowl at our usual regular season home games.
But putting all that aside, I am hoping our team can put on a good show for ESPN.

I think what you see this year will be more in line with what our true demand and expectations can be set at. The previous bowls were attended by "party" fans more than Cajun fans. I know several people who have never gone to a home game that attended the bowl games.
In a weird way the invitation delay, the App State and McNeese losses all compounded into buzz kill for the New Orleans bowl.
I think it is the best thing going.
ps I know one was basketball, there was just an aura at the wrong time.
Anybody with the numbers?
