We also had the biggest golf tournament on the planet going on abt an hour down the road, plus the braves first Saturday home game. Pretty nice turnout considering


The timing of the GDay game definitely isn't done with attendance in mind. Fans have been asking for it to be away from The Masters for years.

I said last season that I was going to take the family this year.
I didn't realize then that Saturday was Opening Day at our Park and Rec baseball /softball. I was prepared last year to skip the weekend's games. When I found out that we had 4 games, I vowed, "next season will be the year so long as it isn't Opening Day".

Hoping to see a win?

The UF fans were, and didn't, who ties their spring game, should have had overtime.

I will be in Columbia this weekend because I planned on going to the spring game. Now, due to the Blues playoff game is at 2pm, I will be going to a bar instead of the game. Just shows that other local sporting events can ruin attendance. WG_Dawg is right,

Auburn had 83k after a 3-9 season last year


The funeral for the trees helped that number.

#2 in attendance of a spring football game just means Knoxville is a boring place to live, beautiful but boring.

Its really not worth going to if you have to fight typical game day traffic.

Besides, LSU doesnt need to actually Watch any play to find something to question the coaches on.

Remember way back in 2007 when everyone on this damn board trashed Bama fans for packing out BDS for the Spring game? Said we were poor, pitiful folks worshipping Saban and he'd NEVER reach the level of accomplishment he reached at LSU. My how times change.
