I ask because I want to come up on Saturday, but the internet tikets site is completely screwed and I don't want to get there and not be able to get in. Are we expecting a big crowd Saturday?

there has only been one time people were turned away and that was the Clemson Super Regional 2nd game. Don't think you will have a problem.

I have 2 chairbacks depending on whether you can get to me to get them.

resemble the ones @ Vaught Hemingway for their Spring game. The die hards will be there but casual fans will be limited. Exams never got in the way of spectator sports for me but I guess for some it happens.

and the offer of the seats, but I'll be bringing my family and my dad so they'll be 5 of us. Just wanted to make sure we were going to be able to get in.

I will be surprised if there are 6000 in attendance. Anyone wanting to go should have no problem getting in to any game this weekend.

There shouldn't be a huge crowd on Sunday. You should take him. I brought my son to Dudy the first time when he was 2 or 3 at super bulldog weekend (we were actually playin South Carolina). The crowd was hectic. I learned to take him on Sundays for a couple more years.

That and possibly the first game of the Clemson Super Regional. Don't think we've restricted ticket sales in any other game.

I've said before that if we wanted to increase season ticket sales, we could set a single game maximum, say, 11,000 (or some other highernumber). More people would buy season tickets just to make sure they had tickets to the more important games. This would increase our paid attendance but also our actual attendance, assome of thoseadditional season ticketpeople would come to games 'since they already paid for the tickets'. I first put out this idea before Arkansas and LSUexpanded--the idea wasto put Stateback to the top of the attendance standings. We wouldn't be able to catch either now (certainly not LSU), so it's not as big an idea. It would still work, though. Best thing now to do is just win. Win and attendance will improve. It won't even take championships, just be regularly competitive and we'll start to fill the stands. Maybe even later this season.

the only reason that we didn't bring in more people was because "the fire marshall" wouldn't allow it. I have often wondered if that was LT's doing or if the fire marshall really did have a problem with it.

that are very attractive as well- Alabama, including a DH on Sat., and then LSU. Playing South Carolina is also a pretty attractive series as well. I could see all three of those being well attended.

I agree with you about winning- but the athletic dept. also could do a better job of promoting the games.

C'mon man, give us some superbowl scores or something. Does State win any championshipsby 2017? Are Mullen, Cohen, and Stansburystill our coaches?

Was one of the highlites of MSU Baseball for me. In the LFL drinking baseball water and eating some good bbq is a great way to spend a Saturday. The Clempson pitchers were in our bullpen that day and our LFL spot was right on top of them. We game them hell all day. Got some good laughs from a few. Really a great day.</p>

but to be completely honest, I was in right field that day and there was very little room to bring in any more people. There was room to let more people in (just to break the attendance record) but there was very little room to put anyone else that had sight lines to actually watch the game.
