As was mentioned earlier in the thread. Standing room only would be right around 25k. WKU averages over 18k a game on its own. Would have been higher then that this season if not for a horrible fan turnout on Thanksgiving weekend (12k and that was probably a stretch).

Phase II of stadium expansion at WKU will hold upwards of around 45k. When WKU remodeled the stadium upon joining FBS they made it so that the stadium could easily be added on to and the open endzone closed in to create basically a horseshoe around the berm in the other endzone. However, our athletics dept has said that until we really start selling out they aren't going to add on just for the sake of adding on. WKU's average attendance has gone up every season. I think next season will see it rise again with the conference change bump. WKU also has the backing up several multi-billion dollar corporations in Houchen's Industries and Russell Athletic (Fruit of The Loom). Houchen's donated 10 million last expansion. From what I have heard they have said they will do the same when we are ready to expand again.
