I couldn't find any larger pics, but OF seating is coming to A&M now that the rec addition is complete.





Not a lot of details yet, but it should push our standard capacity from 6100 to 7500+. If we add more seating (less berms) then we should be able to see more season tickets and it'll be no problem to avg 6K+.

TD Freak.....Florida fans' attendance at the super regional was abysmal. I would be embarrassed.

I wish I got a nickel every time an LSU poster complained about our baseball attendance on here. I'd have a whole helluva lot of nickels.
Newsflash - college baseball isn't on the same level as college fooball. That might be the case on Lollipop Lane in Candy Cane County (or Peppermint Parish in LA's case) but not for the rest of us.

I'm glad your team is at home relishing in the LSU victory. Maybe LSU can send them a postcard from Omaha.

Will y'all put the fences in the new park past 300ft?


We're going to put them on tracks so we can move them out only when our opponents bat like we did when LSU was here.

Why are they consistently so low in attendance?

UK's attendance should float up near the top half of the conference beginning next year. It's good to see so many schools with great support for their baseball programs. I hope the Cats will be in the mix for many years to come. Great coach, new stadium and excited fans should help with recruitmenting.

The top half will mean 3900. Is UK's new stadium big enough to get that?

State's attendance will improve with the new stadium from increased season ticket sales. Being a new, more comfortable stadium won't hurt, either. Won't approach LSU's numbers, though. Probably increase to 8,800-9,000 or so.

Our stadium is a dump and easily the worst in the conference (or at least until Missouri joined). It's finally getting renovated after Foley's stupid 10 year freeze on renovations (the O Dome took precedence and that was finished last fall).

Doubtful, reserved seating is only 2500. Every day capacity including berm seating is 4000, plus the ability for temporary seating in the outfield to get it to 6000-7000.

With the product we have been putting on the field, I am hardly surprised.

State won't match LSU's average number even with the new stadium.
Red Stick has over 800K compared to Starkvegas 100K in each ones metropolitan area.

I agree we can probably hit 9K plus a game. Of course, we will still hit 13-15K for SBW and Regionals/SR when get a chance to host them.
No doubt that us two along with OM have the best, most loyal CB fans in the nation.

Not sure what Florida's excuse is.
Gainesville does not have any distractions from the University (it is a good distance away from the beach, attractions etc) so no reason why the baseball should not attract more fans. I think back in 2011 State had as many or possibly more fans than UF at the Super Regional. Starkvegas is 546 miles from Gainesville. That has to be embarrassing to the Gator faithful.

We've had some bad weather the last couple of years...that's the main reason.
