Marshall brought a nice contingent and, as you would expect, they were there early. However, by the end of the first quarter they were joined on the visitors side by a good number of local folk.
I would love to have some kind of software that could count the number people in crowd pictures.
The AAMU game this season was bigger, but this crowd was the loudest and most lively crowd I can remember.
