[QUOTE="Supersizethatorder-mutt, post: 425520, member: 435"] And if we regularly filled BDS for all games, noon games would be at capacity also, but we don't, and with all the noon games we have, we never will, unless perhaps we have 3 or more 11 win seasons in a row. I was at all those home games you listed, and despite the numbers given, I can assure you there were nowhere near that many actually in attendance for the noon games, and some of the later ones, with the possible exception of GSU. Did you notice that the number is larger for the GSU game than for the Clemson game? That's because the Clemson attendance was down that year also, again probably because it was a noon game, and their fans weren't willing or able to make the trip; that game is usually at or near capacity. I don't know where Tech comes up with the numbers they always give (ticket sales, maybe?), but they don't always reflect actual attendance. I sit in the upper east, and it is seldom anywhere near full, nor are the ends of the upper west. Give the fans a reason to come (more wins and more attractive opponents, both beyond our control), and they will come, regardless of the time. [/QUOTE]
