Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 4448101, member: 405"] Attendance tonight was 15,600. That's tickets sold, not fannies in seats. So that's probably around our season ticket number, because I don't think there were more than 10,000 people there, and I doubt there were many walk-up sales this afternoon, especially when the game time was moved twice. So let's say that's about 6,000 less than recent season averages. People spending $30-40 each is 2 beers and a slice of pizza, or a couple sodas and a couple snacks. There are hat, shirt, jersey sales, money made from private boxes and the 44 Club. It adds up. The University does better when the seats are closer to full than empty. They count on that money to fund many other sports on campus. [/QUOTE]
