| Why so many empty seats? (Posted on 11/11/12 at 6:21 pm)
I end up going to 2 or 3 regular season games and I've never seen so many empties for a division rival when tickets were going for 25-50% above face.

the front runners jumped off the bandwagon, but don't worry they'll be back.

It filled up once the game started from what I saw.

I was there and didn't see that. I actually expected to see several empty seats, but didn't.

Don't know what to tell you. Looked like a normal crowd to me.
Late arriving but near capacity once hand settles in

I noticed plenty of extra seats in the terrace. It confused me too.

I sit in 618, and it looked like a typical crowd. It was late arriving, but it filled up like usual IMO.

Sec 637 was packed. A lot of times people walk down in the second half and stand behind the bleachers in the 100 level. I've done it a couple times.

I didn't see that many empties at all. It was a late arriving crowd though. My section didn't fill up until the end of the first.

I was there and it looked like a packed house until the final whistle. Only time I saw empty seats was right after halftime.

I was worried at first, but the crowd just arrived late. There were alot of people outside in Champions Square still when I went in at 1120ish
