We will blow everyone else out of the water this year too. Imagine if they end up building the berm. Saturday SEC matchups will have 12,000 there easily.

What about those same games if we go in with a few to many non conference loses.

Well, I think our baseball program is once again among the elite in the nation, and I really think we stay there as long as we keep PM in town.

You DO realize that is just paid attendance? I bet we didnt average more than 3000 actual people in the ballpark. Our attendance has been horribe the last few years...because...well...LSU fans are some of the biggest bandwagoners on the planet. simple as that.

I disagree. We have have had 3000 for Southern or Nicholls, but we had large crowds for our SEC games, especially during our 23 game winning streak.
WTF does it matter if some fans would rather go to the Regionals and SuperRegionals more than weeknight games during the season ????????

I can tell you I was at the SR series against Cal Irvine, and people were sitting or standing in the aisles (including me.) That last game in Alex Box was extremely emotional, even for this "bandwaggoner."

It's paid attendance for everyone on the list. I am sure what pertains to LSU, pertains to others on the list. LSU does not have a patent on "bandwagon" fans. But, if anything, LSU has the least amount of bandwagon baseball fans simply by the fact that LSU has led the baseball attendance rankings for decades.

No one showed up for baseball until the early 90's...and they all left in the mid 2000's.
