Before we pound Youngstown into the ground, and beat Penguin fans to death, the economic situation has crushed YO more than any city I know. Population is down more than half and poverty has doubled and look at attendance so far this year:

I believe the last time we played NDSU in ND the attendance was 13,164 or less that we drew for St. F.
Yes they are averaging 18K and we are only 13K but 13K is a lot better than most FCS.

There is no way there was 11,000 people at that YSU Misery State game last week. The athletic department clearly goes by what tickets were sold not how many people actually showed.

So does every other school. Hell the Indians have noticeable differences as well.

Every other school scnas their tickets unlike YSU so they can very easily give a more accurate attendance number.

The point is, YSU fan support could/should/will be better, but in the context of the FCS nationally and MVFC in particular, it is pretty good. Way above average for what is arguably slightly above average team.

Not to start something, but I have been to every stadium in the MVFC, outside of the South Dakota clubs and I do not recall any team scanning any tickets. WIU and UNI never even asked for them. Although I do think UNI had the old basketball turnstiles to count.

My point was lets not brag about our attendance when there are 1,200 people in the stands and it says 11,000, that is a joke.

NDSU scans all tickets
