McNeese fans don't travel like home attendance. I remember when we played them in the Astrodome in 2000 and they barely brought 2,000 fans

The SFA/SHSU classic in NRG buses their students to the game...before goig to Houston it only drew 15K at best on campus

They had at least close to a thousand when the came to Mumford in 04 even had a nice rv crowd. Even if they travel less than they did then it's still better than the rest of the SLC

+1. I expected a better showing from shsu fans @ PVAMU. The facilities excuse is WAY out the window as there is only 61.2 miles separating both schools from their front doors. In our east side stands where the visitors would normally sit, there were a LOT of us purple/golders there. We didn't outnumber the sam faithful but it was god awfully empty on that side, imho. FTR, we are planning to take over their stadium when we go there, naturally smh. Go figure...

I don't think they expected much of a game at PV and unless you go out of your way to pay attention they probably had no idea how nice our campus is

If we got the same sponsorship level for the LDC they get for the Battle of the Piney Woods we would pack all the levels in NRG, instead of just almost filling the lower bowl like they do. Even though we out numbered them in attendance for our game, we could get more in there with those prices for their game.

+1. Truth ^^^^^^.
 
The Battle of the Piney Woods is ran by Lone Star Sports and Entertainment Organization who also Organizes the Texas Bowl and the Advocare Texas Kickoff. They do a good job of getting sponsors for those events. I attended a Behind the Credential Event at NRG that detail some of the things they do.
