And 37,096 in 2015. So if 40,00 is capacity at Nippert, we are only a winning season away from filling up the place. A 9-3 season would do the job.?

Exactly--more wins, more attendance. You want butts in the seats--put out a good product.

Let's look at Cleveland as an example:

Browns attendance:

Indians attendance

Cavs attendance

Cleveland St. attendance

You'll notice that the Browns and the Vikings attendance is way down as a league average and as a 10-year trend, while the Indians and the Cavs are trending up in both categories.

If you win....people watch you and pay for tickets. If you suck, people quit buying tickets and watching you.

It's really that simple.
