I know Tech grads who live in frickin' Monroe!!! who have never been back for a home game since they graduated years ago. Never!! One of them was in the BOP. He admits that is pretty bad and he "should" attend some games.

So, lament the actions of some of our students, leaving after halftime, but at least they were actually there for awhile.

Meanwhile, we pick up some fans, like those I met last night, who have no other connection to Tech than our brand of football. Their daughter, currently a sophomore in high school, said she always just assumed she would attend LSU, but is now seriously considering Tech. There ya go. Building it one fan at a time!
Posted before I saw your post-- ditto "they were actually there".... in my early years I left many a game because I had a date and she was not into it and , well I had wrong priorities then
