Message: [QUOTE="OrgTruckPat, post: 5255821, member: 9375"] I see a lot of ppl on this board who suggest we have a 'core base of die hards' of 32-35 k season ticket holders. I think that number is actually closer to 28-30k. Add the 3-6k students (depending on opponent and time), then the maybe 2k a game casuals, and we are at what weve been all year, 35-39k sans uconn game. Using those numbers, assuming maybe 500-800 students show up saturday, getting to 39- 40k would actually be fairly impressive. It would mean almost 8-9k casuals, which would be 7k more than most games. It still sucks we cant get a couple more k in the door and fill it up. Its just too hard a sell for too many casuals to reach the numbers, due to myriad of reasons we all discuss here regarding shting the bed time and time again, that we need to sell out. That's my attempt at breaking down attendance #s. It all boils down to our 'die hard' base not being as big as is commonly assumed. But what do I know. [/QUOTE]
