I feel the need to defend the students this time... I was sitting in 224 with Ken and Jimmy/Mrs. Jimmy, and there were numerous students sitting in the 300 level sections behind us. As someone mentioned in a previous game thread, they are around but don't necessarily seat themselves in the traditional area we mostly did. So, there were more there than you saw. I think the UWGB game will be a good litmus test of the student section. Has Bart been at the dorms? |

I can chime in here and provide some perspective since I am the one that determines the number. First off, we do not inflate the attendance number and haven't in the five seasons that I have been here. I cannot speak to what was done prior to that. The announced attendance number is primarily the number of tickets out/distributed. The issue that we are seeing particularly on Saturday is that while the tickets out/distributed number isn't that much higher than previous games, people are actually using their tickets. We had a 13% increase in people using their tickets/actually in the buidling on Saturday over what our average had been for the previous games at Panther Arena this year. I hope that helps. Let me know. Makes sense to me, can you speak on if we are seeing an increase of walk up and day of game sales? Sure. Yes, a really nice walk up on Saturday, one of the better ones that we have had in a while. |
