SWAC attendance analyzed

I didn't say they were doing it.... I just said it benefitted them to have a lower atendance. :swink:

If you look at a game with 30,000 X $16(est) X .07, you're talking about a 33K+ rental fee for that game.

Bruh, who it benefits depends on who collects the money. If JSU was collecting all the money and not reporting all of it, then you would have a point. With all of these NCAA rules designed to keep these smalltime schools 1-AA, I am not sure if they count tickets sold or turnstyle counts. Turnstyle count could or could not be an indication of tickets sold.
 
They will be hollering undercount no matter what. I understand that Memorial has barcodes on tickets which makes it hard to counterfeit and very easy to count. That should tell you how may people paid for a ticket and came to the game pretty easy. But I sure it is easy to blame someone instead a realizing that your attendance is falling off.
 



14,000 was Paying attendance...............ACTUAL TICKET SALES. :nod:

EVERY BAND with chaparones, community groups, kid's club, drill teams, or high school that participated in JSU HOMECOMMING EVENTS --- PARADE---

GOT IN FREE. :nod:

Add the other FREEBEE organizations comming from the ADM. during homecomming week and another 10,000 people in the stands is NOT HARD TO REACH. :goof:
 
I understand that. I am not just talking about your homecoming. I am talking about all the other games jsu'ers holler about undercount. If 5k to 10k people are getting in free who is that hurting. It seems that since you guys like to flaunt attendance you would do a better job making sure it is done correctly. As lmany times as you play their you should have some say so in something.
 
So no matter what the explaination is ............... it still comes down to "White man robbin us".................. JUST DIFFERENT WORDING. :swink:

Dude .............. attendance fell off last year. We still finished in the top ten. :nod:

Attendance is down this year. :nod:
We are still on target to get a 15 or 16 thousand average. :nod:

That will still be in or near the top 10 while the rest outside of maybe 2 others are still trying to make the top 25. In other words, ATTENDANCE IS DOWN BY OUR STANDARDS ONLY. 95% OF YOU WOULD BE LEAPING FOR JOY AT 15K A GAME. :nod:

Amazing what ya'll will find to rub JSU on when in reality, the only people our attendance should matter to is JSU. Hell, we still got 95% of ya'll beat and onlY won 5 games in 2 years. :goof: :goof: :goof: :goof:
GIVE IT A REST. :D :D

I'll let anyone from Alabama A&M who was in Jackson Saturday defend out numbers for homecoming. Anyone who was there knows that 14,000 is not an undercount but a CRIMINAL UNDERCOUNT. lol. They should be prosecuted. smh. There was 30,000 people there EASY. 30K is being nice to the undercounters. smh....probably closer to 35K. all I can say is WOW to these numbers every week at memorial. lol.

Gotta agree on this one. 14,511 is way under the actual amount, but I understand about that count vs. the paid. I saw a lot of uniforms that I assumed to be parade participants. Good crowd neverless.

:topic: Please buy some bulbs for the scoreboard!

MH, we could give a fugg about attendance this. This was not as severe of an undercount as it was when AlaState came to our homecoming but it was an undercount. But that ain't even a topic of discussion. I remember the day when all we had to do was complain about attendance... :(

You might be wrong TP, cause attendance really matters to jstate83.

If everyones school was located in the capital of the state or in a highly populated area what would be your arguement then. If you are getting robbed it is your own fault.
 
NO MH................ATTENDANCE SEEMS TO MATTER TO EVERYONE ELSE. :emlaugh:

Why should JSU care about something, that only 1 other HBCU in the country, and hell d1-AA for that matter, can give us competition in every year. :winkgrin:

Still gettin robbed ..............ok. :look:

As far as where we are located ..................... WHAT YOU WANT US TO DO.............. SAY WE SORRY AND MOVE JSU TO THE SMALL TOWN OF WESSON, MISSISSIPPI.................POP. 1500?

Would that make things fair? :lol:
 
The way we are losing, I could care less what the count was. I told Get Ready at the game that we would get credit for about 13K. After losing, they can say nobody was there. I want wins.
