Increasingly many folks simply don't want the hassle of going to games.

I think "hassle" is a good word to describe the variety of issues that have caused this.

The cost of season tickets has easily quadrupled since in first got them
22 years ago.

You could park in the CEBA lot for free.....then we had to move to knapp hall, then the AG center....throw in high prices for bad concessions. As an out of town fan you have travel and lodging. It's to the point that for the cost of taking a family of four to one game is so much that you could buy a big screen TV and feed everyone filet mignon for all 12 games.

Multiply that by seven home games.

The fad of neutral site big OOC games has taken away from the season ticket value. there are at most 2 'big" SEC games at home. I don't know how many times I walked into the stadium with tickets for the other SEC games that I couldn't give away!!! And then you have three rent a wins.

Heat has always been a problem. But the expansion of the piped in music and overwhelming advertisements have made it unbearable.

Throw in the poor product on the field.

I'm afraid it's gone, and it ain't coming back
