This is funny because you said it. LOL

Bigger stadiums, more options, and rising ticket prices, along with less disposal income decade by decade. Plus, TV is all that matters. The little troll in the red shirt controls the game --- which announcers LOVE to point out can easily drag on for 4 hours. Cut the TV timeouts and that is much less of a problem. The rest of the world can figure out a way to pack soccer stadiums and generate plenty of revenue without commercial timeouts... we cant?

Do you think Texas will lower their ticket prices just because they suck and attendance is plummeting? Of course not. They will call on "loyal fans" to continue to over pay for a product that isn't premium.

Do you think MLS will reduce their grand stadium requirements because it requires higher ticket prices and reduces attendance? Nope.

Attendance will not be addressed until the image is tarnished and TV revenue is diminished.

Western KY v. Rice, this past weekend:



Official Attendance: 20,124

I don't care how many people show up to Tulsa games. Tulsa has at least proven they can field a competent football and basketball program.

that's how it usually looked when I followed the Tigers down there. Grand old stadium though. Lots of history.

I hate to see what the attendance is going to look like this week at BHNS. I'm guessing actual attendance will be FAR under 25k (probably 15-20k) with around 26-27k announced.

If I were a UCF fan this year, I'd watch from that free beer bar every weekend.

Not a bad idea. Only way to keep people showing up.

They obviously misplaced the comma and meant 2,012.4 people. LOL

Bright House is the name of UCF's stadium.....which may also be a good idea. :)

Ah ok. Hahaha. That makes sense. Good idea.

I haven't made it out to any UCF games due to work travel but how is our attendance this year? I would guess with the away games it's hard to tell and we'll find out this weekend at THE CIVIL CONFLICT?
