I assume Hamilton’s run is over in the Seattle area since the stadium appeared pretty full

The stadium was about 75-81% full at its peak. That's between mid 2nd quarter when people make it to their seats from tailgating and getting snacks then through them taking selfies for an hour and then heading back out to the tailgate and snacks.

This was moments before kickoff

For what it's worth LSU had plenty of empty seats

Even in the SEC you have to win

Except Auburn which was full to watch them get blown out

That’s when thousands were still outside of the stadium because of the shit job Jen Cohen and company did with stadium staffing. They only had two bag checkers and two ticket scanners (plus two others scratching their asses doing nothing) for the entire SE Gate. Other gates were a shit show too.

If Fat Leppard wants to be cheap, then please lower ticket prices.

Also, if there is a security incident due to shit bag check staffing, it is 100% on her. It was bad and she has to know it was bad.

Ummm no. I had zero wait getting in and was in my seat 15 minutes before kickoff. That’s including getting a couple of beers. These are people who tailgate until 1 minute after kickoff and then wander in. They aren’t people who wanted to get to their seat and planned accordingly.

Not saying the entry process doesn’t need to be improved. In fact, for PSU someone was trying to scan their tickers and I walked around them into the stadium without scanning or question. I could have done the same yesterday. The person standing there is trying to help the person scan and not watching the perimeter.

The seats in front of me yesterday had 4 or 5 different groups rotate in throughout the game. They were empty until Q2. Then the owners of the seats showed up. Selfies happened, some beers, phone fuckary, some chit chat with the lady next to me.. they left at half time to “go to their boat”. Then random people showed up and left the rest of the game. Tons of empty seats around me the entire game.

And that’s was definitely at peak attendance. That must be 2nd quarter.

I write letters. Do I send them too? Sometimes.

Dear Director Cohen;

Stadium staffing was a complete joke. There is not adequate staff, infrastructure, or planning when it comes to the stadium entrances. There is insufficient staff handling both security and scanning tickets. Double the number of the people and it would be better, but still a mess.

Here is an easy solution. Instead of having Chick-fil-A provide fans with free sandwiches, have Chick-fil-A handle the entrance queues, security, and ticket scanning.

Student section was a little thin as school hasn’t started yet

No way would I want people who hate the gays and want them dead anywhere near the stadium!

It was very loud, I think that's what matters

Is it? Could it be louder? How loud was it?

118-120 standing decibel on the average offensive play according to my nerd friend's apple watch. Which is insanely loud.

I had your wife shrieking in joy a couple hours after the game.

At it's peak it was very well filled out. From the south side I saw gaps up high in the upper deck and at top of the student section. It was LOUD though. Best environment I've been at since 2000 Miami though I missed a lot of games 2007-19.

It's unfortunate Michigan State kept getting those fourth down conversions and TDs because it was going to explode and the game was going to truly jailbreak.

My wife passed away last year. Thanks for the mention. When she was here that was unlikely. She was never into cucks, like you

I was there and from my perspective it was 85-95% full.

And it was definitely loud, but could be louder. Husky stadium still has enough juice to make a difference in the game and did.

75% is a lie, we get it's not 1991, but that atmosphere wasn't embarrassing and it's going to get better if the team continues to improve and win games.

You could see what a clusterfuck 520 was well into the 1st quarter and that definitely contributed to a lousy crowd at kickoff. The people who made it did their jobs though making it tough on MSU. By the 2nd q things had cleared up and this is what peak attendance probably looked like:

We are now getting to Hamilton level shit. People know when the game starts. The have technology at their fingertips to navigate and plan for traffic. The game is a minute 30 in. Traffic is no excuse.

The pattern is the same for every game. Late arriving crowd, peak mid 2nd quarter, an hour of peak crowd (with selfies and phone malarkey ) then dwindles after halftime. 520 had zero to do with that scenario playing out yesterday. I don't think I've seen a close to packed house at kick off for 30 years or more

75-80% is very accurate at its peak. Zoom in on any crowd shot throughout the game and tell us otherwise.
