I agree that that scenario is somewhat peculiar. However, the justifucation is just as vlw has offered coupled with the fact that some of our fanbase was lost to Hurricane Katrina when the New Orleans area permanently lost more than 100,000 population. But since BR and southeast Louisiana are experiencing an industrial and population boom, SU numbers are starting to grow again. I expect that we will soon be back on top in all attendance categories. High intetest games such as Jackson State, Alcorn State, Alabama State, and Florida A & M, draw huge crowds, while other low interest contests may not be so well attended. This would explain why our AVERAGE attendance in 2014 was just under 17,000.
Attendance for this game was 41,357 in a 30,000-seat stadium. More than 2000 were turned away when the fire marshall shut it down.
Who had more fans lol.
Sorry, guy. Young alumni here just looking for some information. I appreciate the constructive criticism though. Next time a simple (you should do this instead would be better). Thanks in advance.
Welcome collinellis, hope you get the answers you need.
Yes, you would think that. We've been thinking about it since January, so it's natural to believe the people who get paid to think about it have been as well. Unfortunately, history doesn't support that thinking. I really hope we have our shit together this time, but I think there's a 50/50 chance of this being a giant Charlie Foxtrot.
That's funny right there.
Charlie Foxtrot......that is DAMN funny because it could very well be true!! But, you could have just called it a cluster!
Here's how simple this all is....
set up locations that sell just bottled water and bottled Pepsi. It takes only a table and some ice chests....ta dah! That way those seeking a cold drink don't have to fight the lines at the regular concession stands behind some kids buying nachos. Will speed up concessions for everyone, including those seeking the nachos.
Also, and here's the real secret, yo Tech officials, buy MORE bottled water and Pepsi than you think you will sell at the SU game. Yes, anticipate a HUGE crowd and HUGE sales and then add to that number. Just think....any bottled water or Pepsi not sold at the SU game will keep to the next home game. It won't go to waste!
They should actually do this!
I would bet that if you asked anyone at Tech about this they would say it is not up to them, but the contracted providers. They have paid Tech and so don't care. It appears Tech has no leverage with these people. Maybe outside the stadium, but just try to bring one bottle of water in. So get hydrated before you go in.
They HAVE actually done this. You're about 3 years late. If you're gonna talk concessions, make sure you're talking facts. They've improved through the past few years, but Aramark has so far to go to provide exemplar, timely service.

Or just be sneaky.
Have heard that a couple of come to Jesus meetings have been held between our admin and Aramark. It improved as basketball season went on last year. It should be better for football this year and it has gotten better over a couple of seasons. As stated, they have a long way to go to actually provide the service promised in the contract.
I bring two bottles of water into every football game at TECH. Northwestern State is the only stadium where they would not let me bring in a bottle of water. Of course, that is also why I haven't attended a N.W. State game in the last 4 years!!
