5700 in Ogden?? Were 3600 of them all in the restroom during the entire contest?? I think I'm beginning to see why Weebs leads the conference in attendance.... :shock:
 
The Dee holds 12,000
less than half full looks empty

there was every bit of 5,759, About 2,000 less fans than Saturday night vs. Northern Colorado.
They do not scan or count any student cards either so probably more
I think I saw about 20-25 Griz fans as well.
Any Griz fan at the game will tell you there where at least 5,759.
 
The Dee seats 12,000 and is large and spread out (a large bowl). Of course it doesn't look very full when the place is less than 50% full, especially when viewing it on TV. Cameras only show a small portion of the actual crowd. When less than half of the seats are being used, people spread out. It's human nature. But I was a little disappointed in the size of the crowd last night. I always hope for more. Still I would take a half full Dee any day over some of the high school gyms in our conference that draw <1000.

According to the Missoulian the Weber vs. Lady Griz game at Dahlberg had attendance of 3,751.
 
The Dee is a very nice facility. But I just don't buy the attendance number last night. Spread out is one thing; non-existent is another. Both weebs and UM's PBP guys commented on the sparse crowd.

To be honest, I was surprised at the announced attendance. I didn't think there were 5,700 there last night. I still don't know how Weber counts attendance. It appears to me that they only count tickets purchased, but who knows. Maybe they just throw a dart at an attendance dart board. I've been to football games that I swear have many more fans than is reported.
 
I was very disappointed with the size of the crowd. I was hoping for atleast 7,000-7,500 after the win over UNC. The 5,700 fans isn't even in question in my mind. Griz fans at the game would tell you the same thing I think.
 
Yeah, i'd say 5,700 was pretty accurate, I was at the game with my dad and uncle and I said to my dad when the game started that we had less than 6,000. It looked like a crowd of 5,000ish.

I was very upset at the attendance though, 5,700 is a crock of an attendance when your biggest rival (who just so happens to be in first place) comes to town, even for a weeknight there should have been at least 6,500.
