I have put together some interesting numbers concerning attendance at EWU Football games. Compared to other Big Sky Teams we are second to last in student and alumni apathy as far as attendence is concerned. It is time to wake up the student body and get their butts in the seats; and alumni as well.
Granted we are the smallest school in the Big Sky, but we are also the most apathetic next to Idaho State. This does not reflect the effort and record of the team.
Enrollment:
1. Sac. State (29,362)
2. Portland St. (27,972)
3. N. Arizona (23,600)
4. Weber St. (18,303)
5. Idaho St. (14,486)
6. Montana (14,207)
7. Montana St. (12,369)
8. N. Colorado (12,124)
9. E. Wash. (11,302)
Stadium Capacity:
1. Montana (25,217) They have 10,000 additional interested fans other than the student body.
2. Sac. State (21,195)
3. Portland St. (19,500)
4. Weber St. (17,500)
5. N. Arizona (15,000)
6. Montana St. (15,000)
7. Idaho St. (12,000)
8. E. Washington (8,600) We need to add more seats, if anyone will sit in them.
9. N. Colorado (8,500)
Here's the big one, 2009 Avg. Attendance:
1. Montana (25,217) That's all the seats they had. Look above.
2. Montana St. (13,283) Montana seems to love their college football.
3. Sac. State (9,935) This stadium is half full. No accomplishment here.
4. N. Arizona (7,678) For the size of their student body I would really be pissed off at these numbers.
5. Weber St. (6,500)
6. Port. State (6082)
7. Idaho St. (5,369) We could take their spot with three more fans per game.
8. E. Washington (5,366) Pathetic...
9, N. Colorado (3,519) Does anyone in Greely go to a football game?
