WAC Tournament Attendance Numbers - crimsonillustrated - 02-24-2020 11:01 PM
Anybody know where I can find the WAC Tournament attendance figures for past years?
I’ve done a Google search, visited the WAC Tournament Central site, all with no success.
I want to say total average attendance for the tournament (all sessions) is around 14,000. Too high? Too low?

What a great memory that 2007 Tournament in Las Cruces was. I remember the all-session passes were just $50. Now we're paying $150 13 years later.

Since joining the WAC in 2006, NMSU has only not participated it to the WAC Tournament championship game three time...2006, 2009, 2011. And when they did, only lost it twice; A three overtime marathon to Boise State and a buzzer beater Cal State Bakersfield. Now that's impressive!
I also was at the 2007 WAC tournament. That Championship game was rockin'; everybody wearing their Reggie Nation T-Shirts.
