Alabamas own open records release, the average the past two seasons has been less than 4k per game, despite a recorded 11k in sales.

Dude, what are you doing? Don't try to argue with this man. He is an Auburn fan talking about Alabama athletics. No one is more informed on the subject.

No need to be butt hurt little brother. Everyone knows AU fans have a massive inferiority complex when it comes to Alabama.

I have never heard this, but if it's true it's a very small number. Alabama does have the Tide POints system which awards points within Tide Pride for purchases to ALL athletic events. The more points you have, the better your chances at getting football road game and bowl game tickets. So there are many people that buy basketball season tickets just for the points. That is why there are so many empty seats in the lower rows for some games.

It's in the thousands, but yes it has to do with tide pride. I believe it's one of the elevated ticket packages, not for regular seats.
It's been a topic on here before.

All Bama fans live in trailers. No way they can afford to do this.

Ok. I've only gone to multiple home games for 30+ years and seen the crowds with my own eyes but you know better than me.
Btw, you can look up the official attendance numbers the NCAA goes by and Alabama has been in the Top 40 nationally in average attendance all but about 5 times in the last 40 years. Two of those were the last two years. Auburn has never sniffed the Top 50 nationally. An Auburn fan is literally THE last person who has ANY credibility discussing basketball attendance.
