How big will our crowd be?

This is Montana's only playoff game and the only one in two years. It will be really disappointing if attendance is down to 21k.
 
The prediction out of the Coast Range of Oregon is ..........22,350. Will be watching from home. Our weather calling for 29 as a high and 19 a low for Saturday! I will set up shop outside and watch... More of a more real viewing experience.....
 
I'm leaving work 2:30 Missoula time on Friday, driving 660 miles. Might find a hotel in Great Falls or sleep in the truck near Lincoln or go right through to Missoula. Need to find a good breakfast place/ pre-game party place, ideas? Then the game (got a seat in the NEZ!!!!), post game celebrations and home by Sunday at 5:00 pm to watch my little girls choir concert. My first since GRIZ home play-off game live since....ever! Can't wait! Attendance 23,415

Paradise Falls is my favorite spot for a pregame base coating.

I would suggest finding a hotel in Great Falls to sleep in... It's going to be WAYYY too cold Friday night to sleep in your truck for the night.

Weather will be a factor, we are not driving over for this game and I am sure others feel the same way. 10+ hours to Missoula in bad weather is not worth it for a football game.

Looks like you are fully recovered from the 23rd.

Better luck next year.......

Especially when your team isn't even playing in it.
 
I would hope that we would sell out but too many fair weather fans....Yes it is easy for me to say that since I live in Missoula and do not have to travel, but I still go and my girls still go even though it's cold!

For those coming, travel safe!

A member of my immediate family is playing in the game on Saturday and I as always will be wearing his Montana jersey while I cheer on my Griz.

The game is in Missoula next year and Griz will win that one too. It is what we do.

I can fully understand people not wanting to drive, but it’s amazing how many fair-weather fans there are right here in Missoula. Half of my office didn’t go to the Weber game because it was “too cold” and it was 45 degrees that day.
 
Not as many as I hope. Talked to some of the season ticket holders in Great Falls who are not traveling. One stated will get the pay for view, my pay for view will be in the NEZ.
I know 2 for sure. I'm guessing 2 +. :lol:

Not trying to be a dick, but you are really, really bad at this e-troll thing.

May I make a friendly recommendation?

What most epic fails do is create a new screen name and try a new angle. Send “YourMom&Me” a pm, and he can give you some pointers.

I really do appreciate the time you spend being concerned about my situation, but the fact is you are talking out of your pie hole. I have read this board for many years since another relative played for the Griz, now I am following the newest member of our family is playing for them. Sorry if that doesn't fit your agenda but you're wrong on me being a troll. I am more Griz than you could ever dream of being.

That is what sucks the most is the LOCAL fair weather fans....or polo fans. That is also why I agree when they black the game out locally!! At least the loud and proud fans show up the Missoula fair weather people can stay home with their tea and listen on the radio!
