They're already 3rd or 4th fiddle.

#2 Those SUU attendance numbers look off also. I dont have any proof.. its just a hunch bc ive never been to SUU's field BUT theres no way that stadium holds that many ppl. Eastern's home side is bigger, Eastern has about 2.5k in endzone seating, and about the same amount of visitor side seating as SUU... so how the hell is SUU's capacity higher? That makes no sense. I estimate the capacity at 6k max. :? :geek: :?

Both sides were pretty close to being full, and with close to 18,000 capacity each side has to hold at least 8,000 and the West side was almost full, so there is 7,000 plus the 4-5,000 on the east side. So Weber's attendance was probably more like 10 to 12,000.

I dont think they are counting student, and Im getting tired of seeing a packed stadium, waking up the next day to find only 7,000 showed up, its a crock, The crowd on Saturday would have filled the Dee.

It's the same thing with Sac, the "home" side was sold out (holds over 10k) and the "visitors" side had at least 1k. The student section, which runs the length of the home side, was over flowing with students (they get in for free).

I feel your pain, I don't know if students are counted or not, they don't pay to get in, so probably not.
If it looks like a cow, smells like a cow, and moo's like a cow, it's a UC Davis coed.

Id agree that there was a legit 10-11K there. Nice job by the Weber fans for turning out. :thumb:
Too bad your ticket manager didn't feel the same. :thumbdown:

I thought we might have been closer 9K for our game. The entire student section was full, about 4K there. Plus it was about about 3/5 full up top on the west side. Hopefully we will have 12K this Sat night for Weber.

Yeah I hate it, its been like this for a couple of years now, go to the game and see a packed stadium, look at the box-score the next day and basically say WTF? Its the same at the Dee.

SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE :evil:

Well I've always thought SUU would be a decent fit for the Sky, and for a 12th team I can't think of a better FULL member! Glad to see some TBird fans out and about at the game!
