I wouldn’t expect a sellout until we see the national exposure return on our investment in science projects, renovating LaFortune Hall into a palace, attending other school’s rowing competitions, and basketball coaches nobody else wanted.
Never heard of the sport. Explain.You forgot bringing back baseball

Yeah, even Ten Bears barely remembers it ...I’m not sure I can remember the legend correctly... I’m too young.
Where has everyone gone? Back in the 60s, we averaged 30k/game.
http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools.../2013-14/misc_non_event/2013FootballGuide.pdf1991 — Stadia Turf, a new artificial surface, was installed in the summer. The football season had the highest season attendance average in school history with an average of 31,236 fans for seven home games.
To have sellouts, the team has to be consistently good or on a major upswing. By the looks of the amount of people at "Fan Fest", not really seeing any excitement...embarrassing turnout.
Could we attract more people with in stadium activities,
concerts before/after the game,
meet and great previous/current athletes.
Craft and junque sales.
I plan on tailgating then going home to watch the games...once they got rid of going in and out I was done going to games...sitting in a football stadium without a cooler for 4 hours is boring and expensive.

Also at play in 1991:
OSU lost every game but one (which they tied) that season and they lost a lot of them by double digits.
Thank you Pat Jones.
Pickens' help has really helped OSU and hurt Tulsa. I kind of wonder if Pickens has something against T-Town.
I had what seemed like endless arguments with TuGeo on this board about Boone’s money and the effect it would have on the OSU football program.
I can't fault someone for coming to tailgating and pregame activities and then leaving to watch it at home. The games are for the TV audience with excessive TV timeouts that really kill the flow of the game. Don't tell me that the TV audience isn't more important than people at the stadium because I remember standing in the rain at 2:30 a.m. watching the guy in the red hat stand on the field for a TV timeout. That was ridiculous and sent a message to me about who really matters.
In order to get 30K into the stadium it will take the trifecta of things to get it done. First, a consistently good team (more than one season) and improving. Second, a quality opponent from either a nationally respected team and/or a really good conference rival competing for the championship against Tulsa. Preferably Houston because everybody hates them. Third, the pregame atmosphere needs to be something special that has a reputation around town for being a really fun time. I really like the way things are headed in the pregame department and the components are there if we start drawing more people.
I think we sell out against OSU regardless.
Someone was actually arguing that Boone’s money didn’t have an effect on OSU?
No. Our discussions took place when Boone announced his gift and the facility upgrades were started. Geo didn’t think the money would have a significant effect on OSU’s football program because it had been consistently poor and that track record was too hard to overcome. I thought he was minimizing the effects of state of the art facilities would have on a program.
Then why didn't we get a home game with Ohio st or notre dame.Our stadium isn’t too small. OU and even OSU play in our stadium. What a stupid argument.
