Just goes to show the most successful G5s (ever?) have to use promotions to get butts in seats. 
 

 

Sure. But, also, not sure. They have a stadium that seats 36k and change. They typically average around 85-90% capacity every season, which puts there always at #1 or #2 in attendance. In very meaningful games it's not uncommon for them to sellout the stadium here and there. I would call this promotion them just being forward thinking while continuing pretty dang good attendance. 

For the sake of comparison, we average around 60% capacity. 2 years ago we averaged just north of 50% capacity. In big games, we will get up to 80% capacity (25k). In our biggest of games (2 or 3 times), we will get up to 90% capacity (28k).

Old Boise State wouldn't have to do this.  I think this one more indication of the battles programs across the country are facing with attendance.

Agree, not Old Boise anymore.  Plus, their 2023 home schedule is lacking...

I feel like college football is in a great place right now. Not sure about attendance numbers but CFB popularity has to be at an all time high right now imo.

Who would have thought only catering to the marquee brands and refusing to develop the smaller programs/fanbases, eventually driving those fans away, wouldn't be sustainable long-term?

I thought everyone wanted to play Wyoming at home.

Wyoming is much better for us than Texas Southern, UIW, Portland St, or any FCS.  But Boise regularly gets P5 at home; not this year.

      Not thrilled about playing State

      In a city of 4 million people, I'd sure hope you'd have at least double the attendance of little ol' San Marcos. The only reason ya'll ever sniffed a 5 star recruit is because E.O. was a momma's boy that didn't want to leave home (like most UH students actually). Nobody was talking smack, UH fans are just low class losers and overall poor sports. The only reason you're in the BIG 12 is your daddy Tillman paid for it. Nobody cares about UH in Houston, it's all about UT, A&M and LSU.

      Idiot president-elect proposes Canada as 51st state

      Once again Republicans create their own little economic dystopia for some reason because your retirement accounts have never been higher, unemployment has never been lower, and inflation lagged behind the rest of the world. Yeah the world's biggest welfare queen turning twitter into a cesspool of nazis, bots and crypto scammers. Throttling the political opposition and using illegal lotteries to try and buy votes. Suing companies because they dare choose not to advertise next to usernames like killk**es1488. Every time he makes another boneheaded announcement like allowing people to still see blocked tweets, or arbitration that has to be settled by a judge he's donated money to, threads/bluesky/mastadon get a bump in new users. The world's richest man's threats to shut down the government over the spending bill just got $190 million stripped away from childhood cancer research. Enjoy what's left of the federal government being sold off to billionaires with their added profit taxes because god forbid something not make money.

      Build the rivalry between North Texas (Good Guys) and Texas State (Someone needs to be the bad guys 🤣), and everyone can agree that we wish UTSA nothing but bad luck

      You cant talk about a fanbase when we double your attendance. Funny how 4 and 5 star guys come play football and basketball in 3rd Ward but won't even look in San Marcos' direction. When opposing fans talk smack and try to start fights atnthe game, they get beer, red paint, etc dumped on them. Oh well. Texas Tech does even worse stuff. Hell, everything Tech and UH play each other, there's always a brawl in the stands. Lmao

      If the owners of this stie didn't need the visits/posts from you, you'd be gone...which is extremely pathetic on many, many levels.
