Pretty sure they are trolling you and you bit. It's pretty well known we are up there with LSU when it comes to baseball attendance. We care.



Whatever DC. I'd like to think that some of the best fans in the country aren't frontrunners like the Alabama fans of the world. So we shall see.

It is Spring Break here.

Students are gone, lots of families are traveling. All the school districts are on Spring Break too.

The season just started. Can we revisit when it's over? Good Lawd.

ETA: We always start slow and sorry, yes...it's bc of the weather. It's cold up here. Sorry we can't have perfect weather like S. Louisiana. This week was an anomaly... being statewide spring break.

The conclusion of the games this weekend will mark the midway point of the season. Once again, whatever, DC.

Read my edit. I'm done arguing with you.

ETA: I had already stated attendance will be down this year bc the product on the field is not even mediocre. It's awful. People aren't going to travel as often like usual to watch that shite.

There is no argument. The season didn't just start. Whatever, DC. Just move on. You guys were focused up on basketball. I get it. No need to justify having your facts wrong. Like I said, we'll see what the actual attendance does as the season moves forward.

When the product is bad, the fans don't show up. Kind of like Lsu football

Thats pretty funny considering the fact we never had a crowd below 95k this past "down" season

Arkansas usually has really good attendance so i was very surprised. The attendance wasnt good for the LSU series either.

Just goes to show you how quickly fanbases will stop coming out if you product isnt quality. Especially when every game is now available on tv.

The Thursday stuff throws people. Having all the games on TV will hurt attendance, too. Just like it seems to hurt basketball attendance. I think the LSU Saturday game was a sellout.

I think it's normal on here for fans to talk less shite when they aren't as good, unless they are LSU fans. Its just the way it is

Usually about 5k by the end of the game.

FIFY because of the major exaggeration and omitted the "usually" because it happened once but interested to see your rebuttal.

Students don't sit in the grand stands

grand stands are the LAST RESORT if you need a seat


I am a big baseball fan but I was not at the game nor wore my roommates. The reasons were as followed for us: it was chilly most of the day and wet, due to the tornadoes and hail the previous night, game was at 6, we all got home from work at 6, it's spring break, so the town is a ghost town anyways(especially sporting events), we watched it on ESPNU at home and drank beers, and the product on the field isn't what we are used to
