anyone have good info?
I was there. I estimate 8-10 k.

Kudos to the Tiger fans making the trip and supporting the team. 04-bow

Tiger5 · 12-31-2015 08:49 AM

hard to exactly say, my guess 10,000-11,000. Probably no more than 12,000.

Heard we sold out our allotment of 8,500.

~~Memphis Bunch~~ · 12-31-2015 09:09 AM

I actually think around 15k. I was in section 13. There were a lot of Memphis fans spread out out side of the main tiger sections

Our allotment was actually 10,000 and Bowen said we sold we sold them all.

If that's true I'm upping my number to 17,500. I didn't buy through the school and there were a lot of Memphis fans around me. In fact I was completely surrounded in section 13 down low

TIGERCITY · 12-31-2015 10:41 AM

Represented very well 04-cheers

I was surrounded by Auburn fans in section 16. There were other Tiger fans there too.

Tigerx3 · 12-31-2015 10:46 AM

There were almost 60k total. In rain gear you could not depend on colors to separate the fans. I think 12k is a good estimate.

80sTiger · 12-31-2015 10:53 AM

It was barely shy of 60k. A BB record.

roundhouse74 · 12-31-2015 10:53 AM

I didn't feel like we were outnumbered more than 2 to 1, so, if the announced attendance is correct, 12K Memphis fans might be low.

Were you able to make it?

Attendance for this supposed lower tier bowl game was much better than other higher profile ones.

Outpaced the Belk in NC with NC State and Moo, and did better than the Music City with Louise and TX AM.

Auburn supported well, as did we. Kudos! Wish the team had played better, but in terms of our ability to impress with road attendance to a bowl with a name opponent...well done.

Agreed. Tigers fans were everywhere around the team hotel and Uptown. We absolutely surprised the whole city with our attendance.

~~Brother Bluto~~ · 12-31-2015 12:16 PM

It was 75% auburn fans. Which really isn't a bad thing. We had from the 30 yard line to the goal line.

Unionman76 · 12-31-2015 12:26 PM

Attendance: 59430

My kids gave me tix for Christmas. Unfortunately wound up having to officiate my aunt's funeral at 2pm. Got to watch on my phone on the way to Marshall Co. Missed all of second half while handling things at funeral. Hated to miss. Had planned on arriving Monday nite and enjoying team fesitivities on Tuesday. Go Tigers!

msu65 · 12-31-2015 07:03 PM

A lot of memphis fans throughout the stadium. I say 15K easily.

Yep. I'd say we had between 12-15k there. Maybe slightly more.
Our group was about 25 or so.

I think you are about right, 12-15K. There were several large pockets throughout the stadium other than where they "stuck" the majority of us.
