[QUOTE="Supersizethatorder-mutt, post: 465051, member: 435"] Poor attendance started before 2008, but it was indeed due to the change from points to a donation system on tickets. I'm not sure what year DRad made this change, but, although it's a change that virtually every other school in the country uses, he definitely handled it badly. I have sat in the upper east (originally on the 50, now on the 45, after the shift in the field) since 1967. The year prior to the change, my section (225) and the one south of it (224 or 226) were solid Tech for every game. The first year of the ticket fee, the number of Tech fans in those two sections decreased by a good 50%, and it's gone down every year since then. I don't know if there were 95% Clemson fans in those two sections today, but there were definitely way more than 50% Clemson fans. [/QUOTE]
