That's a joke -  ku's attendance, it really needs a break down of their fans and then the opposing teams fans that attend.  I would almost bet that only 20,000 of that 44,137 are actual ku fans. (or less)

I agree, but that's what the official numbers are.

You could always point them to the photo galleries that show the actual attendance.

Not to mention that those ku #'s are reflecting all of the infants in the stands as well.

ku's record attendance figures in their own stadium are either when Kstate or Nebraska comes to town. Not a coincidence.

That's right...I forgot that ku charges for babies to get into the games - boy, they just cheat everywhere that they can
