Spring game crowd

[B1GEast]

per Silver's blog, not too bad

UConn said 5,500 fans attended which looked plausible, but I felt it was a little high.

In case you did not notice there were 1,000 in the lot that never came in.

That is a decent number, given you knew going in there would be 0 students, at an off campus venue, coincident with spring weekend.

Not a bad showing, maybe 1,000-2,000 short of the most we've seen.

I have been to 4 of these spring games and this was the biggest crowd I have seen show up.

It has to be impossible to get an accurate number. If you walked by the gates at anytime during the game there were people entering and people leaving. I think every year there is a percentage of people that come to watch just a portion of the game. Some people leave at the half. Some people show up in the third quarter. How do you track that portion of the crowd?

i thought it was a good size. on the ride home i threw out a 4500 # and that was my guess. maybe 6 to 7 in the lots all together and 5ish wne tin at some point sounds good. can't wait to here if we got anything good news wise for sny ratings. whens the replay? i really want to see some things from tv view instead of live...

5,500 seems right. Lotsa people on sunny side. About 5,300 more than BC's spring game.

FWIW, a photo of field after the game. Good PR, saw a lot young dads with kids.

My guess was certainly over 4,000, since I told my wife that over 1/10 of the stadium was full. 5,500 doesn't sound like much of an exaggeration; probably right on the mark. It was a great day to be out with fellow Huskies! (every day is a great day to be out with fellow Huskies, by the way)

I thought 4,500 as well. Not bad.

Nice picture. I was able to see myself standing near the 35 yeard line with my son. Really.
