I agree, that site can hold more than 20k. It's where Crawfish Boil used to be and I know they had more than 20k out there. It was hard to find attendance info, but the 2010 Crawfish Boil listed attendance at 45k at the same site we're using for Sam Hunt.

The more folks in attendance the higher the cost for putting on the event. Someone is paying for security & staff, porta potties, waste management, etc... I'm guessing 20k is the manageable attendance.

I'm a booster and season ticket holder and did not get tickets. Admittedly, I did not do it immediately on day of availability, but was disappointed boosters didn't have more opportunity to get tix. Not handled well, IMO.
I'm gonna be pissed if the crowd is full of non-UAB people in non-UAB gear.

There's a lot to gripe about, but if you didn't move on it when the tickets became available, that's on you. Sam Hunt has a song at #1 on the charts. Free tickets going very fast was a no brainer.

And no, it wasn't handled well.
