Looks like you get more of a crowd at a College football game, than we do at a 1st grade national league game here

The attendance at OUR Tigers v Bulldogs game on the weekend was just over 20,000 (and thats considered good attendance)

 

[AUFred]

Ours was less than a sell-out. We had a little over 81,000.

University of Michigan has sold out its home game for years.

It seats over 106,000

Funny thing is with all those people it is not the noisiest of crowds.

Ann Arbor is full of snobs

That coming from a died in the wool Michigan fan. My old man graduated there :thumbup

My daughter goes to Michigan State :thumbdown:24:

My sister is starting grad school at Michigan this year. She wants to go to one of the football games solely for the purpose of comparing them to the other college games she's been too.

I just checked


ANZ stadium, built for the Olympics DID seat 110,000 making it the largest in OZ

Refurbishment reduced the seating to 80,000 or so.

Never has been filled to capacity. (Cept for the Olympics)

I have gone to probably 6 games over the years

Last one was when Woody Hayes tore up the 1st down markers when we beat them

I marched in UCF's band for a year so my family ended up going to most of them home games. There's a lot to be said for a team that brings 2000 fans (when I was there) out on a good day. And we went to a Florida game when we were younger and we still talk about who crazy it was. I'd rather go to a college game over a professional game any day. 90% of the time, the college fans are more into the game (compared to the professional games I've been to) and they have marching bands, which is way better than just about any NFL half time show..

I think I have gone to 3 or 4 Detroit Lion games in all the years. One at the Silverdome and the other 2 at Tiger Stadium.

I agree the college games are more exciting to see in person.

But that can get over the top too. We went to the Rose Bowl and there was a moron behind us rooting for USC. I have heard some horror stories about how the Michigan fans are treated in Columbus at the OSU games.

Auburn's stadium is 87,451. Plans are there to expand too
