Daigeaux, I thought I cleared this up the other day about the '75 "Championship game" against Ga. at the Box but I guess not. That was the first game of a 3 game set, the 2nd, which we won after a rain delayed restart, and 3rd if necessary game to be played at Ga.
And AlwaysATgr, if you didn't see Paul Stefan pitch, you didn't go to any of the games while he was there, caused he pitched in damn near every one, especially '75!
'75 was the one year I can remember that ever came close to what it is today and even then it was small in comparison as the crowd grew as the team won and the season progressed. By the end of the season we were probably drawing 800-1000 fans a game.
In answer to the original question, if there were 250 people in the stands for a game before the Skip era, except for that '75 season and game against Ga., which they put some bleacher seats in for, it was considered a good crowd.
Tulane was the exception. There were always good crowds of 500 or so, maybe more for that one.
