And you posted this why?

Haven't you even looked at the screen - it's been the topic of conversation since, oh, about 8:30 last night.

I was in Tuscaloosa when Ro and Josh went crazy on Bama. It was pretty vacant there too.

Bama is ranked #1 in the nation for the first time since 1980 during the regular season, playing an SEC team that has beaten them 2 years in a row, and I saw empty seats below the scoreboard on tv last night. Can't even pack the stadium for a winner.

Maybe if it was a spring game more people would have showed.

Yes, Where have you been for the past 5 years?

We have been down at half at 80% of our games and come back in the 2nd half with a full crowd

not down 28 to an unranked team. he's really not that far off. The fans are spoiled and are very vocal about it. And yes i have season tickets.

The gump is right. In the nineties, the stadium was mostly empty during Hallman's era. I remember the shellacking we got by Fla. 53-3 or something. I stayed till the end and there were maybe 10,000 people left.
Fans leave for a lot of reasons, but mostly if we are losing. It aggravates me, but we can do nothing about it. Sort of like the weather.

We boo our teams also. Especially players doing bad during a game.

It has something to do with why we are so passionate when we are playing highly regarded teams.

IF YOU COULD LEAVE THE GAME AND NOT GET STUCK IN 2 HOURS OF TRAFFIC, MORE PEOPLE WOULD STAY UNTIL THE END. IT HAS BEEN THIS WAY FOR 40 FRICKIN' YEARS.
YOU WANT US TO STAY...........FIX THE G-DD--N TRAFFIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you leave games because you are worried about traffic then dont come at all. That is the worst of all the excuses so far. Traffic what a joke excuse.

When the weather gets icky or game is going the wrong way there will always be folks that bail out..

In all the games I have ever gone to I have never left till the clock read 00:00

Even the first music city bowl were the tide got by Va Tech.

Temp droped to mid 30's by the half and it started sleeting and snowing but still stuck it out..

To each his own .. but fans should support the team regardless.. seen my share of fair weather fans for numerous teams and in diffrent sports
