I'm going to say announced is: 27,694
Well I was overly optimistic last game, so I'll try real hard not to this week. 26584
Kids are getting in free on Sat. That means many many kids will be just waved through and not counted. Happens ever time they do the kids get in free promo. It does help get people to the game, but then the advertised attendance is obviously not what it should be, even more so than normal.
I haven't chimed in yet on the attendance thing but I have 5 season tickets and at the NW game I only heard the ticket counter beep 4 times but we were all pushed through. They are trying to keep the flow going but are missing people. I see it nearly every game.

Boy there sure are a lot of ticket counting experts around here!
Took the NWSt game and added about 2,000. Akron probably moves the needle for casual Cajun fans just as much as NWSt. The extra numbers come from the fact that there is very little competition for entertainment in the Lafayette area this weekend. LSU playing early and on the road, weather will be close to the same as the last home game. So I'll be optimistic and say we'll have better numbers than two weeks ago.
28,900
If I recall correctly BOP said the official attendance includes all sold tickets, and UL students. Not included bands, and workers.
In that case it doesn't matter if your tickets were scanned or not. Hundreds of free kids? How you going to count them?
If they're counting all sold tickets we should all buy one extra cheap seat used or not.
