I don't really get slamming the Ducks doing it because people are constantly complaining that husky stadium doesn't have that engagement

    Not slamming the ducks. They have their gay thing. Point is we have nothing. Gay or otherwise. What we have is people driving boats and fancy coffee culture not showing up until late in the 1st quarter and a 61% empty stadium at kick off.
    Seattle in general seems to have a bit of an identity(or lack of identity) crisis from the last two decades of change.

    Without getting too tuggy the days of the TUFF logging camp are long gone, even the grunge days are way past. Seattle is now a couple of shallow stereotypes about throwing fish and coffee shops populated by a lot of transplants. Reminds me kind of San Diego in its lack of authentic character bc of the influx of out of towners.
    We? should have handled the out of towners when we? had a chance.


    Us Kali-fags are an unstoppable force.

    I might add that it seems like a lotta of the type of bros that used to go to UW in the 80s and 90s are Kewgs material these days in terms of academics but I'll let @creepycoug weigh in.

    That’s the point. Nothing was produced.

    People forget the bros of the 80's and 90's are from the Baby Buster generation. Pretty much if you could breathe, you were getting into whatever school you wanted. It was a supply/demand thing. Schools needed to keep enrollment up to pay the bills. Also about the time colleges started venturing out to high schools and setting up tables in the front hall promoting their school.

    I think 70,000 is too many to fill these days for any West Coast Football program in 2022 except for the rivalry games or big out of conference games. The factors that made Husky Stadium an easy sell out in the 90s are long, long gone and they ain't coming back.

    Autzen looks good on the TV because it's 54,000. Same thing with the @89ute and the MUSS at like 45,000.

    51,444

    Point still valid.

    That and UW being so hard to get into nowadays. The instate bro types can’t get in. The sons of those loggers aren’t getting in. there are an outlier or two, but academis and big time football don’t seem to go together.

    A shitty AD, a large stretch of shitty football, late kick offs, etc. It has all contributed.
    So on the “Hamilton to 520 traffic scale” of reasons why UW fans can’t be in their seats at kick off, where does lack of bros due UW being to hard to get into rank?

    That's a good poont. During the baby bust of the early 70's through the early 80s we were well below replacement (i.e., 2.1 kids per female). My dad and mom did their part to keep the country going though and had 3 kids.

    Maybe UW will get easier in 18 years after the current baby bust.

    It's a hypothesis that many have put forward here. I don't know if it's provable or not.

    Seems to make sense to me.
