I hope that I am proved wrong, and this A-Day has a record setting crowd where the upper decks are filled, but I doubt it. That isn't who our fanbase is anymore. We're not hungry. We are entitled.
We had more fans than USC, Wisconsin, and Michigan in Dallas. More fans than any SEC opponent in the SECCG. Venues around Alabama were packed for the CFP National Championship game. We still have a very passionate fan base that is extremely eager to support our team.
Let's be honest though. If you have already dropped thousands to see your team win a championship, you're going to reach a point where you simply are over spending that kind of money.

Yeah. It's going to be a long time before I drop $1000 to see a football game again (unless we play somewhere like California or Seattle).
Although I will spend close to that amount next year when the Red Wings open their new arena.

Really? Then why can't we pack out A Day? With how many bama fans live within three hours of Tuscaloosa, there shouldn't be a reason why the stadium isn't 90% full, particularly when our coach has expressed how much that meant to him, both personally and from a recruiting standpoint.
It doesn't mean as much to our fan base as it used to unfortunately.
