re: Solution for low attendance

1) Improve traffic flow
2) Shorter commercials and play reviews to keep the game moving.
3) Bring back volunteer groups serving food.
4) Encourage tailgaiting rather than continually trying to limit it or commercialize it.
5) Work harder to have more of our SEC games at night.
Literally every one of these would work. The only thing I would add is make parking more accessible for the common fan. I know plenty of people that don't go to games anymore because parking is too big a hassle and expense.

Solution - 1. lower the field 6 feet
This was discussed at one time, but alas ground water intrusion would prohibit that. You’d be something like 12 feet sea level.

Then elevate the stands and steepen the grade if you can’t lower the field. Look at neyland stadium to see what I’m talking about. The views are way better there than in TS

These are the correct answers.
Then again, OP is probably a teenager.

Its a cost issue at this point. When there was not a mandatory "donation" associated with tickets, your average family could afford tickets and went to as many games as possible and knew the fans next them...when they couldn't make the game they GAVE tickets to friends/family/kids who wanted to GO to the stadium but did not have season tickets... Now you have lost that, ticket prices have ran off the average families..and the big money is only interested in the "big games" at this point

Knock off both upper decks and make a bad arse 70,000 seat stadium that is state of the art in everyway and that has incredible concessions.

Can you give me the attendance to capacity numbers for every home game this season?
And then compare attendance numbers to all SEC programs.
I need this to feel real outrage.

Recently watched a video on USC's stadium. All folding chair backs with cupholders. Entire stadium. Damn that would be nice, and I'd sacrifice some of that 102k to get everyone a good comfortable seat.

So the reason that the Seats between the 20's on both sides are Half empty every game is because of Parking and Traffic?
There are people that buy season tickets...they have the Best seats in the stadium, and don't ever go to the games because the Traffic is too bad?
Something else is going on here.

I actually don’t hate number 1.
They clearly over built. A nice 85k seat stadium would look good and fill up. The upper decks are wasted right now.
Rip out the bleachers, lose 15 percent of the total by putting in seats except the student sections.
The leaving at halftime is totally on the fans, nothing else.

That’s a “head in the sand” misunderstanding of the issues.

Block off about 20,000 seats.

I’m only not in Tiger Stadium every home game because wallet isn’t big enough. TV is boring to me.
The emotional battle and energy sucked me in at my first game as a kid. Nothing has changed that.

The "winning" argument doesn't hold water. You could Win games on the same level as Bama, and it wouldn't be Full every game.
Tiger stadium was packed from 2000 to around when they added the new South Expansion. There are just too many seats now...you have exceeded the demand, and priced way too many people out.
Back in 2000's every game except maybe the "money" games were on TV, and people were there.
