33697. Looked closely to 38k

Where is this number coming from? There's no way that can be correct. I know what 34k looks like and that wasn't it haha

I don’t care what anyone says, I was there and crowd was over 40k. Probably close to 45k.

That’s what I thought.

It sure looked that way. The people scanning the tickets were pretty incompetent. They told us one of our tickets had already been scanned. We went to the ticket window and they said that they were scanning them too fast. Funny because they were moving really slow. I suspect the LB crappy scanning system is to blame. Everyone needs to count their section next time.

RE: ***Official Memphis vs Mercer Game Thread*** (9/1)
It seemed like 45 k to me. It's just bad that the school gets a good turnout for game 1 and doesn't get the credit for it. Sounds like a LB problem.

Speaking of which....

Where were the game programs? I always buy a game program. No one had them or knew where they were. I don't even think the public announcer guy had the program. When mercer players would get hurt, he would say..."give a round of applause to...." and just left it there.

So i went to the concession stand by my seats and asked for nachos. "We don't have any". I'm just thinking do you at least have ice and a coke. They did, but there are so many issues going on with concessions almost every game. The LB needs to step it up in this department. It's all part of the game experience.

Why I say the Liberty Bowl management sux, and the University game day preparations could be better.

Also had one lane open at Southern entrance that accommodates I would guess 3-4K parking spots, if not more. Ridiculous and it’s been screwed up for years. Someone needs to fix this mess.

They had a table with stacks of them (as they usually do) on the right just after you walk through the "twin towers of perpetual construction" in from Tiger Lane.

I come in a different way. Usually i buy a program inside the stadium where they sell tshirts or a kid is selling them near the entrance. There were other long time fans sitting near me who always buy a program, and they didn't have one either.

It was frustrating, because i need to refresh who's who especially in the 2nd half when everyone played.

Thanks. I enter the other side. They were always selling them out front or in the souviner stand by the 118 entrance. Not this year.
