Additionally, while I was obviously off about catching up to LSU, we gained 400 per game as the weather warmed.

So, 7 more games x 8k = 56k
So......yes.....the combination of shite weather to start the season, a full blown rain storm for LSU, and a complete end of season meltdown pretty much accounts for the 40k difference in the schools (if we were playing the avg. game).
Again, I got my information directly from the Arkansas website. Arkansas had 34 games, on 31 home dates. Arkansas played double headers threee times. Unlike LSU, Arkansas doesn't count attendance for each game, just the overall attendance for the day. LSU counts attendance for each game. Whereas Arkansas counts three of your double headers as a single game for attendance purposes, your average is also calculated on the lower number of "home dates". It has a minimal affect, either way, overall.

Ouch dude! How does an Arkansas fan miss this and an LSU fan not? That's rough.

I still dont get the weather argument. If you're a fan you're a fan. You go regardless. I went to all 3 LSU games at Baum this year. It rained on me just like it did the hog fans. And there havent been too many games that were 35 degrees and sleeting/snowing.
