What's wrong with that? That's the norm for certain games and stadiums .

Nothing wrong with it, but it is quite a hike. Probably almost as far as I-20 (at least the Super 8) to JAS. They will give you a ride up the hill to the Interstate corner though.

That's to be expected from a school that doesn't have any attendance concerns.

It seems Kansas State's parking lots were not that far from the stadium. Of course their stadium is not in the middle of campus like Texas'.

I don't follow ... do you think Tech has attendance concerns?

I wouldn't know, I don't follow LA Tech like that.
The only thing I ever heard of that remotely had anything to do with attendance concerning you guys. Was that you guys have a hard time getting the upper level FBS (formerly BCS) schools to come to your campus.

That's the case for almost every non-A5.

Whether our leaders have been unable to schedule such games or simply unwilling has been the subject of extensive speculation on this board.
But how's that related to our home attendance?

You do understand the context in which I used the word remotely. ...right? :rolleyes:

It was reported a few weeks ago that Tech had already allowed several more RV spots than they normally do for visitors.
I heard from a reliable source that Tech is allocating 40 RV spots in the Memorial Gym parking lot. Also that we supposedly sent SU 5k tickets and they have asked for 3k more.
I don't see why Tech couldn't set up parking in the Neilson-Carruthers lots. Those are flat and an easy walk to JAS.

Jay (Bleed Tech Blue) stated today on 97.7 that we sent Southern 500 tickets and they have since requested 500 more. He stated the obvious that 1000 tickets is a far cry from the numbers that Stat boy and others have been bumping their gums about. Sounds to me that 90% of their fans pack on to 40 motor homes.

That sounds about right.
