Article from the Advocate on the attendance.

quote:

On the last day of September, right smack dab in the middle of football season on a day that would have been picturesque for one of those New Orleans festivals, 6,500 fans woke up on a Saturday morning and made their way to watch the Pelicans PRACTICE.

SIX THOUSAND and FIVE HUNDRED.

Normally when you get a crowd figure from team officials, you assume the number is a bit inflated.

Not this time.

In fact, I thought the number may have been a little low.

Traffic was backed up on Dave Dixon Drive 30 minutes before tipoff, leaving me to wonder if there was something going on at Champions Square that I didn't know about. Or maybe fans were arriving a day early for a Saints' game watch party.

Nope.
