danefan Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Actual attendance is probably closer to averaging 8,000. It would be awesome to average 7,000 or more for he season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatDane87 Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 Since all we can control is our house, I call for the revoking of the media credentials for all Times Union sports reporters. Since they have no interest in being fair and honest in there reporting we can make them pay the admission fee so that they can see the game. Its not like they ever have any interest in reporting anything positive about UAlbany sports! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clickclack Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 I always advocated sticking them somewhere in the basement with a closed circuit black and white TV... Especially willkins... About as useless a beat reporter as I've ever seen in any sport or market. Just let the guy write about horses year round... He clearly doesn't give a crap about anything ua.

Eli Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 Or we could just heckle him ...nah, stooping too much to his level. But it was a pleasant thought for a minute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob87 Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 Or we could just heckle him ...nah, stooping too much to his level. But it was a pleasant thought for a minute. I just ignore him. When I get a chance I say hi to Bob Weiner and Andrew Santillo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danefan Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 Final attendance of 6,044 gives an official average of 6874 for the year. Actual attendance is closer to 7600 average. Imagine if we were winning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danefan Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 So will the naysayers take notice now that UAlbany football is the #1 ticket in town? All that with a 1-9 and 0-5 home record.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine if we were winning. Imagine if the Athletic Department knew how to promote the games better. Agreed. Hopefully there will be a lot of changes next year. The stadium was great and ran a lot better than I thought it would in the first year. But there is a ton of room for improvement next year on the fan experience and promotion. For one, take the mic away from that woman with the t shirts and never give it back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dslyank Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 Sorry, number one should be win some games. Number two; sell out gold seats to season ticket holders only. NO gold seats should be offered game day. They should become a coveted commodity like Giant's or SU tickets that are passed on through family generations. Only when you have a waiting list for gold seats can you think about expanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine if we were winning. That's a per-game increase of 71.7% (actual nearly 90%) over last year's (previous record) 4,004. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dane Pound Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 Just a minor point but I don't understand the 3:30 start times in November. Later afternoon or evening games are great in September or October. Once the clocks change I think the games should go to 1 PM starts. I don't really care for myself. I have a hat and I'm not afraid to use it but I think a lot of casual fans aren't as willing to freeze their Seawolves off to watch a game after dark when it's colder.
