26,004 means there could be no more than 750 empties in your 26,750 venue. Click to enlarge the photo and look at the upper left hand section in the photo, the East ear. It seats 1850 and is at least half or 925 empties right there. Look at the farthest four sections to right or South end, upper two and bottom two. Every empty there would add on up and then show us the West side if you can. That will better explain my estimate because that is where the other "ear" is located and has many less than the one on the East plus a number of other sections with a lot of blanks.
27,700 and change is the current capacity. It also matters when that pic was taken. I entered the east side after it was 7-0. I didn't get to a seat until after our 2nd possession. The walkway from the south side to the north side where there were seats Took more than our entire possession because it was clogged with people. There were also hundreds of students still outside at that point they weren't letting in until all the ticketed people got in.
Original stadium seated 23,000. They added 7500 (the "ears") several yrs ago bringing it up to 30,500. A few months ago they removed the "ears" from south end, both sides, (3750 seats) thus 30,500 minus 3750 puts capacity, if packed shoulder to shoulder, at 26,750. Now, someone post the West side photo, thats where most of the empties were. That would settle this discussion as everyone could see for themselves. Makes no difference how many parking lots were full, how many were standing around, etc.

All true. Thanks.
But nobody reports actual butts in seats. Even the guys who are so proud of their sellout crowds have some empty seats. It is consistent to use tickets sold across the board.

Bingo.
UAB plays in a 72K seat tomb. The cameras have their back to the home side (yes, when you have a stadium that big, and average less than 30K, there is a "home" side). You see what the camera shows you, the visitors' side, which in some cases makes up 5-10% of the people in the stadium.

Agreed. We like to talk about our sellout record of every home game but I see plenty of empty seats around our stadium. I know some are from out of town alumni who have season tickets and can't make certain games. There are others that hang out in the big blue room (only place in the stadium that sells alcohol and have to have certain seats to access) the entire game. I also know there are others that just don't show up. Some of this in the past has been because of weak opponents at home but that shouldn't be the case from here on out.

Here's a 360 degree look. Fact is, it looks EXACTLY like what they told us: 26,004 in the stands. Stadium seating capacity is currently 27,500, per athletic dept today. Because of construction, we temporarily lost 2 sections that hold 1,500 seats each, for a total of 3K lost seats total, not 3,750.

You must have some student volunteers in your athletic dept. Per your own web site the original stadium seated 23,000 and they later added 7600 (my bad-I said 7500). These were the "ears", EQUAL SIZE SECTIONS added on both sides, both ends. Therefore when they removed those on the South end it means you lost two sections holding 1900 each or total of 3800 deducted from 30,600 leaving capacity of 26,800.
The 360 degree look shows empties in first lower section, then some in next sections, and then COMPLETELY avoids the "ear" on North end of West side and hardly gives a glimpse of "ear" on East side North end. Simply post a clear wide angle frontal of the West side as was done of the East and then people can see for themselves.

Click to enlarge the photo and look at the upper left hand section in the photo, the East ear. It seats 1850 and is at least half or 925 empties right there. Look at the farthest four sections to right or South end, upper two and bottom two. Every empty there would add on up and then show us the West side if you can. That will better explain my estimate because that is where the other "ear" is located and has many less than the one on the East plus a number of other sections with a lot of blanks.
27,700 and change is the current capacity. It also matters when that pic was taken. I entered the east side after it was 7-0. I didn't get to a seat until after our 2nd possession. The walkway from the south side to the north side where there were seats Took more than our entire possession because it was clogged with people. There were also hundreds of students still outside at that point they weren't letting in until all the ticketed people got in.
Original stadium seated 23,000. They added 7500 (the "ears") several yrs ago bringing it up to 30,500. A few months ago they removed the "ears" from south end, both sides, (3750 seats) thus 30,500 minus 3750 puts capacity, if packed shoulder to shoulder, at 26,750. Now, someone post the West side photo, thats where most of the empties were. That would settle this discussion as everyone could see for themselves. Makes no difference how many parking lots were full, how many were standing around, etc.
Here's a 360 degree look. Fact is, it looks EXACTLY like what they told us: 26,004 in the stands. Stadium seating capacity is currently 27,500, per athletic dept today. Because of construction, we temporarily lost 2 sections that hold 1,500 seats each, for a total of 3K lost seats total, not 3,750.

You must have some student volunteers in your athletic dept. Per your own web site the original stadium seated 23,000 and they later added 7600 (my bad-I said 7500). These were the "ears", EQUAL SIZE SECTIONS added on both sides, both ends. Therefore when they removed those on the South end it means you lost two sections holding 1900 each or total of 3800 deducted from 30,600 leaving capacity of 26,800.
The 360 degree look shows empties in first lower section, then some in next sections, and then COMPLETELY avoids the "ear" on North end of West side and hardly gives a glimpse of "ear" on East side North end. Simply post a clear wide angle frontal of the West side as was done of the East and then people can see for themselves.
Great post

I anticipated this and planned for such a response from EE! I have a 360 degree video of all the bathrooms and the concessions areas too that I will post later; still working on getting the releases from the ladies bathrooms.
