I am curious as to how mnay posters and visitors to this board actually went to the game in detroit. I t appeared to me that a large number were planning on watching the game at suburban bar venues.

I could not make it this year, had been to the previous 3.

Does anyone have the attendance numbers? I was guessing around 10,000

I think the announced crowd was a little over 15k.

I was there. Only one I've ever missed was Akron.

We had five there. Been to the last five. Was out of town for Akron.

We seemed to have less than half (maybe even closer to 1/3rd) the fans that we had last year...BGSU was closer to 1/2 less than last year.

Me and my roommate went. Both team's attendance was disappointing. For how close BGSU is, I don't know how they didn't bring at least 15k on their own.

There was no national prestige on the line this year, which kind of explains it.

+3 here, bought tixs at the box office and was sitting 3rd row on the 30-yard line. Great time.

The BGSU/Toledo game doesn't sell out...why would they bring that many to this game?

Sorry. Too far for me

I've missed every MACC due to coaching. It makes me sad.

I was there, drove up with NIUguy and Huskiefan38. Second year in a row going, had an absolute blast.

I was convinced you were dead.

I've been to the last five championship games.

Who was the guy that came into bar with the NIU cape? and the dude behind him in the crazy black
leather jacket? It was about 12:30 and they looked like they were warmed up and ready to do some serious drinking and ****.

Was there last year but not this year due to work obligations.

Oldest daughter and I attended. BG doesn't do well with regular attendance and I'm sure after their last two games excitement was at a nadir.
