This is easy, much like MAT was saying. If we promoted $1 GA tickets for the visitors side and UD, with free parking in the grassy area in CF, we would easily have 25K tonight. This promo would have to be well in advance, but it’s easily worth it.

Contrary to what some think on this board, a heavy promotion was done on campus this week for students, staff and faculty alike. There have been promos in the Advocate and on all Social Media platforms, multiple automated email notices and ticket reminders. Students got a half day. Not sure what else can be done except putting people on street corners. Lafayette is not oblivious there is a game tonight, people just dont show up for whatever reason. this is the million $ question

Ok, I'll ask....did you work with a vendor to geo-fence the campus, the union, and the parking lot at CF to reach really anyone who enters the geo area and serve digital display ads for the game and I guess the half-day? If not, then you and the people you work with are completely incompetant because that's how its done nowdays. Buy your gross impressions, set up the geo-fence, and start serving digital display ads....

I haven't seen or heard much of a push for this game.

What????? No push???? What are yall talking about? Didn't you see they made a post about faculty appreciation week. That's gonna put at least 10 to 15 more people in the stands! Tonight is gonna be sweet!!!

If the strategy is to wait until the CF renovation begins or is over to try and bolster attendance, I hope that wait-and-see approach is shared with our football team. I don't know about anyone else, but my frustration with attendance is primarily because I feel for the members of our football team. The amount of work they put in should be rewarded with a minimum of 20k butts in the seat every game.

Of course. But show the renderings on the video board. You can even have images of the new Cajun Field at some of the entrances around the stadium.

All this week, I've asked my customers (about 25 or so) and people throughout my day (maybe 20-30) People from every age group and walks of life...."hey you guys going to the big game Thursday?" Swear to you, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM, save 1, who is a poster on this board, said, "what game?" I'd bet that
80% + in Lafayette parish, don't even know there's a game tonight. It's fkn pathetic.

Promontion is definitely a year round endeavor.
