Did we #hit30K?

[JesseMartin]

I don't see any attendance threads...how close is the total to 30K?

[NorthTexan95]

Listening to the radio but comments from others say no but still a good crowd. Nothing announced yet.

[chrisfisher]

They said a few minutes ago that many people still filing in because of bad traffic due to large turnout

[greenit]

Has to be 27k-28k at least. Would not be surprised if the number is higher. Upper wing is 2/3-3/4 full and student side has to be 95% full. Can't tell from where I sit about alumni side, but seems pretty full. Maybe someone from student side can speak to the almi side.

[meangreener]

We probably got 28. Looks like the UH game. Biggest student turnout.

I tried my best to take a panoramic. http://imgur.com/Nf0kFV3

The student side is packed. You're looking at the alumni side in the picture.

Here's the alumni side at halftime, it's thinned, due to halftime and a blowout, but it was packed at the start too.

Meangrreener, like many others associated with the university and the football program, your efforts are appreciated by many, myself included. Nice job.

That's it.

Seemed like more. Can't be many sold tickets that did not show up in that number.

[GoMeanGreen1999]

George reported on the radio broadcast that it was the second largest in Apogee

Nicely done

Sign me up for the seats you are sitting in! Nice View!

[bleedgreen4ever]

Need to get those casual fans in! Probably will if he host a CUSA championship game! Beat UTSA!

[meangreener]

Not the best but I'll take it! I expect the UTSA crowd to be similar. I think we'd sell out a championship game and will sell out the SMU game next year. Thinned out quickly but it was a blowout, so, yeah.

26,000 sounds about right

[Green Mean]

Given the last 9 years and overall attendance history I will certainly take 26K+.

[rws69]

We had more than 30,000, but 5,000 tailgated through the game.

[greenit]

Based on the crowd that I saw today announced at 26k, I cannot imagine what it will look like with 5,000 more people. I was not at the Houston game, so that is the most I have ever seen in the stadium at a game I attended.

ESPN says

ATTENDANCE: 26,119

I talked to one of the AD guys in a suite last night. He said all but 300 tickets were sold. I guess we have arrived - counting butts in seats instead of tickets sold. He was happy with the revenue but we both just shook our heads looking at the masses outside we could clearly see from our vantage point.

it's amazing how much conflicting information about ticket sales is going around. All from the same source/department.
