Wasn't this a record for largest crowd during the 5th game of the season?

[VideoEagle]

Wasn't this a record for largest crowd during the 5th game of the season?

For a 2:30 kickoff.

[UNT86]

Yes it was.

Previous best was 17,011 vs. West Kentucky in 2011

[UNT86]

And it was just short of the 32,285 we totaled by adding everyone that came from 2005 to 2008.

[UNTflyer]

Largest crowd ever during Daylight Standard Time.

[andrewrozell]

Also the largest crowd at Apogee on a November Saturday at 2:30 when NBC's Rick Mitchell promised 70 degrees and was completely wrong.

Actually was meeting someone at the Apogee end of the bridge and was amazed at the steady stream of people going in the Fouts direction close to game time. All ages and most decked out in NT gear, but obviously had no interest in going to the game.

We need to put a gate on the Fouts side of the pedestrian bridge and lock it 30 minutes prior to kick.

And turn on the sprinklers.

And just about all of the Tailgating going on during the game was Greek.

[KingDL1]

And just about all of the Tailgating going on during the game was Greek.

Them evil Greeks, I have several people that come to the tailgate and leave before the game begins. It adds to the atmosphere! And over time I have talked several to come in. Now I have some that buy season tickets, with us winning these guys will be even more likely to get tickets.

And just about all of the Tailgating going on during the game was Greek.

There was a large group with an RV on the edge of the golf course that pushed our tailgate over. We left to go in 30 minutes prior to kick. The early start nearly made us late. When we went in, their tailgate was still going strong. As I left, I heard a large tailgate going on past the practice fields, near the tennis courts, that sounded like it had never stopped. And then there was the usuall tailgating during the game on the Hill. Once we are selling out every game, and tickets are hard to get, I will understand tailgating outside during the game. Until then, it is ok to stop drinking for 3 hours, I promise. And it IS legal to tailgate after the game too.

Its nothing to worry about is the point, you can bring a horse to water but you can't make him drink.

The good thing is tailgating helps attendance overall and makes the game day experience bigger and better. At least they are there and not going to Dallas or other.

[emmitt01]

Yep. I've often said "You know what my favorite part of the game was? Not the touchdowns. not the band. not wven the concessions. it was the frat boys sitting outside."
