Live at the Superdome

by Doug Smock

Albert McClellan is suited up for the coin toss, but John Jacobs has been announced as the starter.

With 3:00 before kickoff, there might be 15k… and that could be stretching it. Most are on this side and it looks like the upper deck is closed.

This is one biiiiiig building.

If there was 28,000 people there then they were disguised as seats.

We were there.....I think they counted green seats. NO WAY IT WAS 28,000. NO WAY.

I really hate that our stupid green shirts match tulane's.

Go Herd! BEAT wvu!

I read somewhere that Tulane counted their entire student body whether they attended or not.

What is with the coloring of the seats???

backontrack · « **Reply #11 on:** October 11, 2009, 06:51:37 PM »

A sign of the '70's, dude...

I assume that it was designed to give the illusion of a full crowd on television.Have a random color dropped randomly through the crowd it makes the crowd look full. Obviously now with HD and absolutely nobody in the seats it doesn't quite work.

Looks like a really messed up Mosaic if you ask me.

That is EXACTLY the reason they did that. There were no more than 5,000 in the stadium. I was there.

Herdmeister, you must have been sober because I saw at least 20,000 by the 4th quarter as I was getting another beer. ;D

Counting the entire student body in the attendance is almost as big of a fabrication as saying USPAM athletics is "self-supporting"...

CJHerdgrad · « **Reply #17 on:** October 12, 2009, 05:22:43 PM »

Maybe all the ticket holders were hiding?

I guess they counted all the undergrads 6,749 and postgrad students 4,408. That would be 11,157. That still isn't correct. That would mean there were 17,000 there. Still overstated.
