There have been nine SEC games in which there were at least 10,000 no-shows - South Carolina in 2007
It poured before and during for this one.

No but youre calling all the super fans to flock to your thread and do it for you.

Factor in 4-6" of rain, very limited free parking, and a less than desirable opponent, LSU will be lucky to have only 20K no shows this weekend.

I'm well aware of the amount of threads with people complaining about this. I just thought it was interesting to see numbers regarding this topic, rather than some poster's opinion.

Only posted it to show the actual numbers.. not to pick a side, although that is always a possibility when something objective is posted.

Look who's feeling defensive.

I find it very hard to believe the stadium has never had 90,000 in it.
No shows happen when you have expensive season tix and lack luster games. This year it's been a pretty bad issue, almost like NFL pre season for a lot of teams. Thankfully with this new playoff system, I can see that stopping.

Well, since 2007, when ticket scanners were installed at the gates.

I'll get the superfan ball (t)Rolling.
The more fools who no show behind me, the more I can stand up without having to tell the person behind me that if he doesn't like it he can go DIAF.

Well, I think it's interesting, too.
I would have never thought we did not reach 90k against Bama in 2010.
This is ammo for the anti-student crowd though:

"The student section is the largest area where people don't show up," Broussard said. "If the level of play is not attractive, they will not come. It is interesting to see that that the club level and the suites have the highest attendance level."
