    Same, that number was so shocking to me I truthfully figured there was no way it was true. Thanks for all of that. 19k still seems absurd even a day after the first time I saw that number.

    I appreciate the reply! Those numbers just threw me off and that's a large percentage of grad students.

    @TheOriginalCane What's our current student body size? Someone the other day said approximately 19.4k, which seemed so much more than the 12k I thought we hovered around. It was part of a tweet, I called it into question, and someone posted something from a website of ours. If anyone has...

    The irony of you saying this is a prime example of how delusional you are. Also, I've gotta laugh at you winning debates. Sure, take the win champ if that's what you want to call it. I'd say most around here have another interpretation of events that involve you.

    Blah, blah, blah, blah. The F1 event is threatening our tenancy there? It's hurting the golden goose? The Phins and us will be playing there for years or decades while people like you will still be here talking about a new stadium. I'm never bothered by a thing you say. I just wish you had...

    More hot air from the self proclaimed expert on EVERYTHING. You surely should've known this was year two, not three. I never mentioned attendance, sell out, tickets, pricing, or prognosticated about the future at Hard Rock until you tried to make an argument I didn't even start. I simply said...

    It's year 2, but you'll tell me how and why you knew that. The grand stands, clubs, as well as the suites have all sold out. Those are where you want to be if you're there to see the race. They haven't sold out of general admission passes, which isn't uncommon at any race event. You want one...

    Grounds and the stadium are looking pristine and dare I say cool with F1 in town this weekend.

    Kids still do sports, it's what parents do with their kids because their parents did it with them. Watching it, tuning in, keeping up with a sport, good lluck with that. In coaching travel teams, I've asked them who they like, favorite teams, players, what other sports they like, same...

    I'd love to see more context than just that graph. I've read multiple articles about the overall decline of age groups sitting down watching a sports event live or even in person. Games used to be watched as a family, even all day. Try and find kids that do that today. They'd all mostly...

    It's an artificial bubble that will burst within the next decade to decade and half. I'm actually surprised you don't see it. Point blank, the sharks are all competing against one anther to have a slice they call their own. Costs are going up, but what's happening to the people they're...

    I've said it for a while now, but the generations coming up don't care about sports anywhere close to as much as they once did. Schools better enjoy the television revenue they're getting now as once the 60 to 70 year old crowd dies off, it's going to be a free fall in sports revenue. Same for...

    I completely agree. The year we played FSU (2003 I believe) twice I went to the bowl game and it was sterile as **** in comparison. Granted it didn't have really any national implications, but whatever.

    Any FSU missed kick is also up there in the loud category. The last though wasn't as loud as the OB versions.

    That 3rd and 43 play was deafening. I was there. I always have a hard time saying this or that was louder. Sometimes I feel that's dictated by how many of our fans are in attendance. I also have noted that as time went on, I always said that was the loudest I recall at a game. Time has a way...

    I'm sure we could all debate this until the end of time, but to me there's historically elite or once upon a time elite and modern elite. Modern elite to me is you've been good in a recruits lifetime or cognitive years. We don't fit there at the moment. The other, yes mostly.

    Mid 2000's homie as I recall it, when attendance became a factor in the criteria to stay D1. Temple was close to being dropped as butts in seats was what counted on your yearly average. It also allowed schools thay couldn't come up to the NCAA minimum to be able to be D1. That change allowed...

    You'd have to research when attendance definitions were changed and it was sometime around when App State and some other schools became D1. You had to have a certain amount of kids in school as well as certain attendance numbers for each game. Temple was in the conversation for being dropped...

    Back then they counted real butts in seats, not tickets sold where most aren't even used nowadays. We report 30k at a game now, it's 10k max. 50k is 20k, etc. We have always had empty seats, but it's more prevalent now. We build a 50k stadium, it's still going to have empty seats except...
