YSU Penguin Athletics / Re: WIU Game
« Last post by Kandrase on Today at 10:51:27 AM »Losing causes attendance to drop you say?? Really? Thanks for the update Captain Obvious! What's also confusing me is I don't see how your comment isn't relevant to my comment. Are you telling me that government "oversite" has not reduced the football/basketball revenue at YSU? If so, I must respectfully disagree.I'm fine with telling MLB to F _ _ _ OFF! But my point was NOBODY is making money off empty stadiums. Not the NCAA schools, not pro sports. NFL makes enough off TV they can get by, but everybody else relies on attendance, and NOBODY (but the Rangers) are putting enough butts in the seats to cover costs.
Temporary government restrictions are the least of our concerns when it comes to attendance IMO, I've seen some pretty thin crowds the last few years, especially late in the season.
Well, the government restricts us to 3600 attendees in our stadium, we’re only averaging 2,063 per home game this year.
