Well, I hope that Bobcat Stadium has many more sellouts! It’s a great atmosphere to witness and enjoy

No, they weren’t In fact, some of the last to go were student tickets. In all, I think they gave about 7,000 to students. That leaves about 26,000 non-students.

Season ticket holders bought theirs months in advance, and were given the opportunity to buy extras, before anyone else (including students) could get any. Same goes for Bobcat Club members.

There were reportedly less than 3,000 tickets left, by kickoff for the Houston game.

Ted,

True…but most of those were student tickets. I was alluding to the permanent San Marcos residents. That was the first time since the Barrick Nealy days that the community was really abuzz with Bobcat pride.

Those tickets were already sold, long before the Houston game…

It just goes to show that winning cures all ailments. After the UH win, Bobcat Nation showed up and rallied behind their football team because everyone thought that this is history in the making…the next Boise State. Tech wasn’t having any of that and made sure that they played perfect football. Too bad that the Bobcats showed their true colors. Until the football team starts making winning the norm, the stadium will be half empty, as opposed to half full. I enjoyed the Nevada game, but I was disappointed how the Bobcats fell apart. I will, however, continue to attend and support our team! Eat’em up ‘Cats!

So Texas State spends millions on stadium upgrades that are hardly utilized due to lack of demand. Meanwhile Perry demands public schools be more conscious with their spending habits. I’m guessing these two issues never meet however.

Yep.

For now, that just means more tickets for anyone in town, looking for something to do.

I had a great time, as always. We brought ponchos and didn’t even notice the rain.

It was a tough loss. The way we played the first half, I thought we had a pretty good shot. I’m definitely looking forward to the next game, in a couple of weeks. We should match up better against Idaho.

The crowd was terrible. I know that it was raining but this s-cks that nobody shows up. Again TU was out of town so all the want to be tu fans were not in Austin. Someone needs to find a way to get the students into the stadium.
