Attendance last night

[RocketDawg]

HailState.com says there were almost 8000 at the game last night. Is this another case of "paid attendance" instead of actual, or is that number about right. I gathered from what I read here that there weren't very many at the game.

Maybe half of that number where actually there. Students showed up well. Everyone else, not so much.

The role reversal of rears in the seats between basketball and football is very interesting.

No way there were more than half that number there. I'd say possibly not more than 3,000

We're still selling season tickets very well...

In announced attendance, there was very little drop-off from Stans to Ray -- even though the first team was obviously terrible and people weren't actually showing up. I guess it's good that regardless of how bad the atmosphere may appear -- alot of the money is still coming in...

In 2009/2010, we raised $6.2mil in men's basketball. In 2012/2013, we raised $6.75mil. Pretty crazy and surprising...

I think there must have been a drop off from last year to this year. We were able to move down our seats quite a bit and didn't move much in BDC ranking.
