Pay attention. The kids are gone. Graduation was last weekend.


I get that part, what I was referring to was who fills in when the kids are gone. Then you market to "family night" type things. Having a game at 8:30 on a thursday night kills any hope of tapping that market. If you tap that market you do 5 or 6 pm and free hot dogs and popcorn for the kids attending that game.

Gainesville is a college town-it's students and professors and their families that make up the city. It isn't like Lexington, Knoxville, Baton Rouge or Nashville. Tuscaloosa's crowd vs. the Gators was sparse last week because it was during Bama's graduation.

It's close enough for people from Jax and Orlando to travel (like during basketball season), but on a Thursday night?
