Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 338935, member: 716"] Define "best days" and "filling." Because I don't think that's true. Marrone even talked about that in a Poliquin piece last fall; there have been something like 11 actual football sellouts in Dome history. I don't like the idea of reducing capacity. My logic is absurd and indefensible, so I won't argue the matter. But it's always been a struggle to attract fans to football games. In an era of larger televisions, more youth sports obligations on weekends, and probably 20,000 fewer blue collar jobs in Central New York, it's going to be more of a struggle, even with a good team and the novelty of ACC opponents (which, frankly, is overstated - no one cares about the majority of those teams any more than they do about Big East teams).
