wow. any idea if the scanning issues, in which people just get let in or let in with print copy end up as uncounted attendance?

see troy: so much for the excuse that most of our students are now online

I definitely feel like we had over 18K.

Proof you didn't watch the game...if you had, you would have noticed UL students showed up....once again, "Our Town" let down "Our Team"...

The students did show up. That was very encouraging, and especially with the Labor Day weekend where many of our on-campus students typically head home as a final getaway until Fall break or Thanksgiving break.

I hope that continues, and they only get larger and rowdier.

With zero LSU excuse. Like I said, the university gets scared any time we make progress. We had massive promotions under Hudspeth. Where has that gone?

Even if it was 20K, still weak.

That’s one way to view it. Personally I see more of Our University letting Our Team and Our Town down. Nonexistent promotions. Zero efforts to revitalize tailgating. Concession lines were already backed up 40 minutes before game time when I made my one trip. Scanners didn’t work yet again. People have to buy in person to avoid paying a $10+ premium for convenience. Hard to find merch to rep our brand. Let’s look in the mirror before we lash out at the community. We have failed them every bit as much as they have failed us.

Not to throw the baby out with the bath water though. Somebody obviously did something right as that student section doesn’t happen out of nowhere. Also, the general admission parking in the gates was a huge plus.

I’d like to know how those scanners work. The concept is easy. Scan the barcode.

The person scanning our printed tickets looked like she just waved close for like 3 of the 5. I think the old ones used to make a sound.

Anyway. 18k is a little better than our average. I thought it was a bit more. Still not good, though. NSU brought some people. The students showed up. The rest of the community did not.

Pretty sad when ULM has higher attendance. Fans left at half time.

They showed up and by time of third quarter started there were maybe 200 students
