I read where Ole Miss lead the way averaging 8,210 people per game according to Kendall Rogers. What kind of crowds did the other hosts have?


I saw where he mentioned LSU and South Carolina in the top 5, but I didn't see official counts. I expected LSU to be at the top with the Tigers playing more games than the Rebs on the weekend.

Here is to the baseball venues of the SEC.

I know we set the attendance record at Rice's stadium twice.

There were some impressive looking crowds in Houston, so it doesn't surprise me.

I figured LSU would have led the way for sure. I'm shocked they didn't actually.


Any LSU fans want to explain that for me?

That's very impressive. Reckling Park's highest attendance #1 and #2 were the final t.u. vs. A&M game and the Friday t.u./A&M game. 6825 for the final. The top 5 were all A&M games; the top 12 all involved either A&M or t.u. or both.

You missed out on the celebration with the team in right field yesterday. It was one of the coolest things I've ever seen in person.


My roommate who was with us when you gave us the ride the other day is prominently displayed in this pic




ETA: just realized a certain auburn poster is in this pic as well.

LSU had more than that at the LSU games. I guess more people went to the non Ole Miss games than went to the non LSU games.

I was thinking the same but remembered they were postponed Friday. So their games were actually Saturday, Sunday, Monday (2-weekend games) vs. LSU 3.

It makes no sense because the initial stat he posted was an average attendance stat, not a cummulative one. Playing just on Saturday and Sunday matters not versus playing friday, saturday, and sunday.

Both played Monday but not part of the weekend.

I was thinking more games for the home team would bring up the numbers from the games in which said home team didn't play

As you can see from the numbers, no. LSU fans tailgate at their tailgate spots when LSU isnt playing.

So really it looks like LSU led the way in the conference, no shocker. Just got shitty support from southeastern, Houston, and Bryant.

Too bad we played like Bryant.
