I've been going to Tech games for 55 years. I started going to games in 1961 when you had to practically murder someone to get a ticket to get in. If I had too name reason/reasons for an apathetic anemic fan base there are many, and each contribute to anemic crowds. Let me name the ones that come to mind; Atlanta (the parking, traffic, competition from a hundred other things to do), weather (early fall day games where at BDS 93degrees = 103/113 in the East stsands), competition (Mercer = meh!), apathetic student body (they drive and create the enthusiasm), TV (you can sit in the comfort of your own home get things you like to eat without waiting in a long sweaty line). Now, is it worth going and experiencing in person, YES! Going to a Tech game is the fountain youth for me, and as I walk in I become a 10 year old boy again. I'll go as long as I can. Oh the Irish newspaper thought our fans were fanatical! And I claimed a whole castle for Georgia Tech....not bad for a sidewalk fan.
