Spring Game Attendance Tracker

[Mierin]

Most attended spring game ever coming Saturday? 

At Nebraska, maybe. Assuming the weather cooperates.

Ohio State and Alabama have had sellouts, which we literally can't compete with because of the size of our stadium compared to theirs.

Was the 2012 canceled due to weather?

This year? Ohio State didn’t sell out

Someone asked if this would be the most attended spring game ever.

 

[Nebfanatic]

Yeah I meant Nebraska only.

2 things

1) The AD gives the attendance by tickets sold, they should already know the number. 

2) Anytime you see a school that reports their attendance and it ends in 3 zeros, I would subtract about 10% from that number

Asked my 5 year old if it snows or rains if he still wanted to go and to my surprise he said “Yup!”

So not matter what happens, my 5 year old and I will be there

Raising him right!

Shouldn’t there be a zero on the graph the year it got cancelled?  

No because 63,972 Husker fans still showed up to watch the field.

I don't think that's true. If it was, the attendance numbers from every home game would be remarkably close/similar, because every game has the same amount of tickets sold and every game has roughly the same amount of opposing players/coaches, security workers, concession workers, etc.

Yet our attendance numbers vary from 89,000 through 91,000

As @knapplc pointed out in another thread...tickets sold and actual attendance are not the same thing.

I know that. That's what I'm responding to.

Raising him right!

He goes to school with a bunch of kids who like the Hawkeyes. He came home one day and told me “I’m going to root for the Hawkeyes when they don’t play Go Big Red cause my friends like the Hawkeyes.” 

I just stared at him for the longest time and then said “Son as Husker fans, we do NOT root for the Hawkeyes, ever!”
