Nobody wants to go back, would just like the "prime" seats to be full and have purple in them. I know we're a small private university but that doesn't mean it's ok to have passionate fans in the upper decks in the rain while the best seats, the ones nearest the players giving it their all, are Empty! And then the coach gripes about it, find a way to get those seats to people who attend, like Moose's daughter.frognutz said:
Not flaming, but are we seriously discussing specific sections being filled/not filled back in the good 'ole days of a half empty stadium?
The fickleness of the modern TCU fan won't ever be solved. We're up to a $225K/$255K degree now (whatever the exact number is). It would be more concerning to me if those folks didn't support the university athletics financially when they have the ability to do so.
Not sure anyone is wanting to go back to the days of a half full stadium with half the seats paid for versus the current situation.
I (mating between Steel & 2314) hate money and the things people are willing to do to others to get it, but my thoughts on trading it for a neck massage and [ profanity ] currency system doesn't seem to be gaining any traction.
If the Richie riches really cared, they would see that this is a problem......hurts recruiting, player morale, and obviously Patterson's feelings!
