The unofficial online home for fans of the Western Michigan University Broncos. Part of Collegiate Sports Nation (CSN).

Weather is going to be questionable. However, considering the importance of the game regarding bowl possibilities, do any of you think the fans will come out for the game?

Go Broncos, Row the Boat, Fight on fight on for Western, Western we sing to you Brown and Gold....

There! That about covers it.

My prediction:
ANNOUNCED ATTENDANCE 18000 to 20000.
ACTUAL ATTENDANCE: 10000 to 14000.
2nd HALF ATTENDANCE: once students leave and Broncos lead by 30. 4000.
WHERESWALDO42 Family in attendance: 0

We will be there, bundled to the nines. Cocoa cash in hand.

Im hearing bad weather. Could be cold. Real dog gone cold. People might just stay at home and huddle around the fire trying to keep warm. That's all I got to say on that.

Oh blow it out your sprinkler system.

I ordered my tickets today. I don't think the crowd will be good. My guess is 15,000 tops.

Please.

If attendance is poor, I blame Obama. Anyone care to argue?

Also to note Saturday is band day, so all of those kids' parents will be there as well

Not that I have any official knowledge of this, but I'm sure you've heard that the NSA has the capability to monitor your every thought. That said, I would be careful when writing about our beloved Commander and Chief.

That said, I have no actual knowledge of what the NSA is doing, I am simply going on accounts that have been published in the news. What I have just stated should not be taken as either true or false, and you are free to consider what I have said, but it should not be taken as sound advice, or advice of any kind.

I will be there. Probably standing inside watching the game in the heat.

The Broncos are playing well and are exciting to watch again. That will do wonders for attendance. Possible bowl game positioning and MACC implications (however unlikely) will bolster the crowd.

However, it is supposed to be cold, and that tends to keep people away. This game in particular could see people leaving at halftime if the weather is miserable and the Broncos are up by 7 scores.

I'll take a stab and say 18,000 announced attendance.


I will be there though, rain or shine!

Is it on ESPN3? If it is, I might be inside the bus watching it too. Although if I do enough 3oz ers before the game, I should be warm and toasty till we get win #7.

You have to add in the EASTERN fans! All 24 of them.

I heard that rumor too. But I'm not sure if I actually heard the rumor, or if I have it on first hand authority but NSA put it in my mind as a rumor so that I won't publish it to anyone else, and thus keep this important information from being disseminated. Those clever bastards! Dastardly!

I kind of feel like I am in an episode of South Park.

Forecast is 36 degrees and mostly sunny... I'll say 15,522

Row, Row, Row the boat... closer and closer to a bowl game!

18,024. Book it!

Going by our REAL attendance (not a fake "EMU" level attendance)... here are my reactions/critique:

13,000 -- Highly Disappointed
15,000 -- Disappointed
18,000 -- Not Happy, Not Upset
20,000 -- Satisfied
22,500 -- Kinda Happy
25,000 -- Happy
28,000 -- VERY HAPPY
30,000 -- Assumed That There's Fake Attendance -- but Hey, I'll Take It! :)

There is a 0% chance there will be 20,000 people there on Saturday.
