Only dropped 2 percent this year. Supposedly we averaged just over 55k a game. Yeah I know bull****. .this will not get the job done. I expect to see at least a 10 percent drop next year. Maybe this will get the job done. I am not renewing. .

What are they counting?.... the money down attendance?, the actual attendance?, or the made up attendance?
 
Next year will be interesting

1. We suck and good luck selling tickets after a 6-6 season with the same ****** at coach

2. No FSU game at home
 
Not sure how accurate that is since I didn't attend a single home game this year.

Next year will be brutal.

Ticket sales

Ticket sold plus anyone who enters the stadium without a purchased tickets (freebies, vendors, etc.)

It's a very creative number and many schools with real attendance problems do this. But, it's not just paid, and it's not actual.
 
Our attendance is always higher when we play FSU at home.

That's bad when it drops after a year they didn't come down. Granted UF was here last year.
 
Feel like a attendance was legit pretty good. ***s like Reynolds act like there 30k ... When it's 50

Plus I think they run one of the little rubber traffic hoses across 27ave and add any car that passes by. Probably count each one as 4 people inside.

Ticket sales dropping when we had FSU at home = fail

Wait for next year. No marquee home games and Folden back.
 
My guess is Florida and Florida State fans buy our season tix to get a seat at their game.
 
The troll doesn't even count in the attandence number since she walks right under the turnstile. Doesn't even have to duck.
 
Before kick off, Al goes out and does a count. Then Donna does one. Blake takes those counts and adds them to his own. The total is the official attendance(unless they need to boost it a little later on.).

No way this is actual attendance. Without FSU game, we probably averaged 10K, and that might be generous.
 
Definitely not actual. Been to every game since I can remember and this year was pretty bad for the most part.

After the reno though, No-life will be at 54K capacity for our games. So at least it won't appear as ugly even though attendance should drop.

Although, the renovations which will mostly be done by next year will be marketed like crazy and may offset any large decline we would have otherwise experienced.

What is announced and reported to the NCAA is NOT actual attendance, and no one has said that it is.

Read the article at this link to see how creative a school is allowed to be. Pay special attention to the SDSU people's explanations for the attendance discrepancies. The spin is off the charts. Miami and SDSU are just two of many school who use this stuff to hide actual attendance figures. The reason they do it is because of public perception. Why announce an actual of 28,272 when the NCAA will allow you to report 45K.

The only suprising thing in the article is that SDSU people were dumb enough to talk about it.
 
UM is all about shysting and hoodwinking the public. They're announcing 40k at games where I actually counted the people in the stands, and it was around 5k (Cincinnati game). Then, the stooge UM fans come up with retarded theories to support UM's lies such as claiming all the fans were in the concourses.

LULZ at UM and the stooges who continue to buy and perpetuate their lies.
