Baseball Attendance

[ragincajun97]

Y'all have to admit that baseball attendance has been pretty ____ty for a few years now, unless it's LSU.
It's another venue that was overbuilt for this fanbase. The old tigue was the perfect amount of seats.

We were still 15 in the NCAA on average attendance last year

For all ncaa sports, paid attendance is used. All stadiums all sports, been like that for years

Then over 1,000 people in the stands last night didn’t pay for a ticket

To reiterate what Swamp and Duggie said though, I never would’ve guessed the number would be that low after passing by. Looked like a ton of cars.

Now do people that actually attend. Seems those folks grew tired of paying for seats they don't use. Similar to RV and regular tailgating.

First night with a new ticket system, a guy that walked in front of me his digital ticket wouldn’t scan but they let him in.

Exactly, but the ticket was paid for so it was counted

[R1Letterman]

If we didnt have to pay for smart phones and cellular plans to get the tickets the fans may have more money to spen inside or donate back to the program

Go look at the pictures. There were empty seats everywhere. The count is accurate. All you have to do is go on paciolan and see how many seats are available for today’s game. It’s a lot.

I hope you are joking.

Very true. Crowd was heavy in the sections behind home, but got thin in a hurry outward.

I would say less than half full. I'm guessing the 2500 was accurate and a reflection of actual butts in seats. 2500 seems low if we are reporting paid attendance. We'll find out today since I expect smaller amount of butts in seats given the wind/cold.

Rain last night kept people away for sure. But overall not a bad turnout in those conditions. There were even empty seats in the covered portions of the grandstand. Let's gett'em again today!

I disagree. We have the appropriate facility for baseball. But we out priced our traditional fan base.
