Attendance Predictions #USFvsGT

[BuzzThePlumber]

I know a few people that were going to take their kids to the game but the heat is keeping them from going because their kids would be miserable

I do as well. I am taking my 7 year old son, though.

Well my kid is 3 and he will be there kicking and screaming. However I did purchase tickets that should benefit from shade in the West stands.

We will also be at the top of Lower West, in the shade.

Everybody start hydrating today! Dont wait until tomorrow after you've drank 13 Sweetwater IPAs to drink water.

I can proudly say I've never been a heat casualty. Dont be that guy/girl tomorrow! Also Pedialyte 24 hours before you're in the heat will save your life

"I'll leave my wife at home" is man code for "she told me she that there was no way in he$$ she was going to sit outside in the middle of the day in September to watch football and that she didn't give a rat's rear end where you went or what you decided to do that day as long as you didn't bother her."

I think we married the same person , just to check does her cooking suck ?

Your thoughts on turnout for Saturday's game?

Poll included.

Because of heat...under 40k in the seats.

 

[BuzzStone]

I can't make this game, but I gave both my season ticket seats and 2 extra seats away to GT fans that would be able to make it. It is an expensive game for me not to be at but I made sure 4 seats would be filled. I hope the stadium is packed for all those recruits coming in.

Some people are just soft. I'll be there with both my kids.

How would I know?...she makes me cook.

I attempted to do the same. Does anyone know how much shade row 43 in the lower west will have at 2 PM?

I'm in row 41 and around 3:00 it's in the shade . You should be good by 2:45.

None. You best bet is a big, floppy straw hat.

Maybe after DST ends, but at 3PM in September, the sun will still be high in the sky.

I would have thought 50,000 easily for the first game vs an FBS opponent under the new regime ... from reading some of the other posts, I guess I'm delusional ??

Thanks. That’s roughly what I guessed would be the case. I usually sit in the upper east.

If anyone is interested I have 3 seats in 222 row 9 for sale. They come with a great tan, but mostly on the left side of your face.

Sadly, I'm afraid you are.

The poster made a classic statistical mistake...determining attendance based on what one reads/sees here (or on other similar sites) is the classical definition of a convenience sample.

I am with you. With all the talk about revitalization, branding, and renewed energy, I would have thought we would easily get over 50k. I hope we can. I will be there!

For perspective, according to the AJC, the attendance figures for Tech’s past five home openers (all against FCS teams) – 45,403 (Wofford), 49,196 (Alcorn State), 49,992 (Mercer), 50,161 (Jacksonville State), 39,719 (Alcorn State).

USF with our new coach should easily beat all of those. It is a better opponent and chance to see a new system. C'mon people!!!
