I agree with everything you said above. But none of it addresses the point I am (inartfully) trying to make.

Have you ever been to a country or a town or a hotel or restaurant, where the population or the employees have figured it out that without the tourists or guests the whole thing --- along with their livelihood --- falls apart? These people become genuinely interested in your having a good experience and coming back and/or telling your friends.

How's that apply to the Dome?

Well, if the denizens of this board and the true believers in the Dome were really interested in getting as many people into the Dome as possible they just might say to themselves, "Is there anything in our behavior or attitudes --- or the behavior of others --- that is causing attendance to be less than it could be?"

I'll guarantee you that there are many people that won't show up because they don't want their kids to hear "You suck". People are going to do what they are going to do. But, if this boorish behavior is OK with you ... then please spare me the complaints over the size of the crowd.

In the past three years, I have had the rare privilege of attending games at Auburn, Vanderbilt and Arkansas, all three against SEC opponents. Guess what I didn't hear.
