Northwestern State at Louisiana Attendance Predictions

[CajunEXPRESS]

We must be under reporting to protect ourselves from Fire Marshall putting a halt to fans entering the stadium. As a course of action always under report 20%.

Can someone please post a picture taken from the visitor side looking at the home side? This will put the attendance debate to rest. We had a great crowd by UL standards, but it wasn't 31k or more. 27k is nothing to be ashamed of.

My take on it was student side was about 3/4 full. Pretty good

End zone was about 1/3 full. Not great

Home side(including upper deck) was about 65%

Then you have your 500 on the grass and probably another 1500 at concession or restroom, etc.

If someone knows the capacity of the respective sides of the stadium I'd be curious to know. End zone must be around 7000

What stinks is that I believe most of these other schools over report grossly. When we say we had 27k, we had 27k!

As I talk to my friends that tend to correctly criticize the AD regarding responsibilities that are directly under his control... but tend to perhaps state it too often on here... this kind of post does this forum absolutely no good.

I was replying to a post that predicted 3 things.
27.8K in attendance, people saying it was more, blaming Farmer for the under reporting.

He was 2for3. Not sure how my post "does this forum absolutely no good".

Sorry about that. I read your post without fully reading what you were responding to.

Almost 16,000 respectively, I don't know if I ever bought in to the near exact match but with the wing extensions, the student side equaled both decks home.

The problem is the scanners. After 2 attempts to scan my tickets, I was told to just go in. I'm sure they're not scanning at least 5%.

I can say that from my view of the student side from my seats, it looked more than 75% full, at least in the first half and the endzone looked more than 1/3 full, especially with the people standing on the rail above them. I went to the North Endzone at half to get my son and looked at the homeside and again, it looked more than 65%. 65%? You are saying it looked a tad more than half full? I've got to say that it did seem a little light in the britches when they announced the attendance since I thought it would be closer to 29,000.

It appears this picture could have been taken at kickoff? If so, I'm sure we all know that our homeside fills up pretty much after kickoff (which I don't understand). If this is the time it was taken, I would suggest looking at it midway through first quarter to get a true gauge.

I don't see 11k empty seats
