OT: Jackson State v Alabama State

Post by commadore »

This weekend JSU visits ASU in a rivalry matchup. The game has sold out 27,000 ASU stadium and is expected to be standing room only. I
Will we break 30,000 this weekend? If that game can get 27,000, we damn sure should sell 40,000.
My frustrations coming through.

Well I guess this weekend's attendance is totally dependent on how many Ole Miss fans make the trip. Vandy will have its usual 15k people so it would take 25k of the opposition's fans to get near the 40k you are seeking. I'm not sure which is worse, empty seats or opposing fans filling those seats.

Or as Neon Deon said, "It's a money game."

Sorry, should have clarified - I meant it's alumni/reunion/homecoming weekend for Vanderbilt this weekend.

300 miles away and my wife just had surgery. No, I won't be there. However, my step daughter and her boyfriend will be there.

So the final numbers are in. We had 330 more people at our game than ASU v Jackson State. Sad
