[QUOTE="GT33, post: 949340, member: 5550"] Biggest problem we have as a fanbase is we're an inherently cheap fanbase. Here's some common items: * I live out of town and would have to stay in a hotel and/or buy a plane flight to Atlanta. You know how expensive that is. * Season football tickets got much more expensive this year and the team's performance does not warrant me renewing. * Why should I buy season tickets when I can get some for a fraction of the cost on the open market? * It's too expensive to travel to Ole Miss, one of the finest venues to witness a college football game * Why should I donate to a team that's struggling? I'm gonna wait until things improve. We're busy people wth jobs and families and many have work or other obligations that make attending GT sports events problematic, but beyond that our fans are some of the cheapest of the cheap. We do rise up and donate a lot of money when there's a special campaign, but the day to day decisions with our fans are almost always dominated by the $$. We have an analytical and technically superior fanbase, but when it comes to opening that wallet you'd better have a jaws of life to pry the average GT fan's wallet open. [/QUOTE]
