I see no evidence of any long term trend here except for the part where one included a weekend where everyone is on vacation and the other didn't.

Is it more important to not show empty seats for that specific game or to sell those seats in other games?

Unless the team is surprisingly really good, or until there is an exciting new coach. I see attendance dropping like almost everywhere else in the country.
No crap?  Attendance rises and falls with the excitement/success of the team?

I was kind of kidding at first, but y'all are crazy as hell if you want to ignore attendance issue across the board in all sports, even with exciting/successful teams.

People are staying home these days. Stadiums need more quality seats, more technology, better sight lines, etc. If K-State is perfect around 50k, I think it'd be best to have more quality seats and less high school bleachers on the concourse.

I'm not saying ignore it, but getting rid of seats at this point is putting the car waaaay before the horse.  Give it some time to figure out if the lowering attendance phenomenon will affect k-state, and if so, where the homeostasis is.

Like I said, I was kind of kidding to start, but also maybe I said it the wrong way.

If K-State has the money to do a huge SEZ renovation that would change the seating, sightlines, etc. by taking out like 12,000 seats and building 9-10,000 high quality seats. They should definitely do it.

(no idea on those numbers, but just using it as an example. Would be a similar example for the east side as well)

both sports should go broadcast-only, meaning a zero seat stadium/arena.  home crowd noise is simulated and pumped in on speakers

lost ticket sales are recouped via streaming fees.  the games are no longer available on ota or cable.  you want a 50 yard line view? your streaming fee will be much higher than the guy paying to stream a nez feed.

no one really cares about basketball so give those streams away for free to ft riley dudes or something


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

3018 people will have a movie similar to Gladiator but it will be about professional sports circa 2018

Have the crowd noise be related to feedback from the companion app (have an "AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH" button or something).  More people hit the button, the louder it gets.

very good idea.  more noise would indicate more people paying attention bc they are tapping the noise button
fans who are paying similar streaming fees and are seated near you in the virtual bsfs can be heard through your surround sound

Or use the mic on your device. You just yell at the screen and the sound comes through at the stadium over the speaker system.

Based on the KBOR capital projects report (which can change) if Mean Gene doesn't get a move on, we might as well just VR the crap out of this thing because Niles and Fraziers and movin dirt cease after FY 2020.   :buh-bye:

To preface, I don't know jack crap about what kind of fund raising and whatnot goes on behind the scenes. Is there any push to build more from the current AD group?
