Re: Wisconsin Hockey Vol. XXXII: No Where To Go But Up!
People keep referring to attendance in this thread, but I ran the numbers and they've still had "reported" attendance averaging 10,886 per game throughout the season (9793 - Friday night, 12116 - Saturday night.) Of course, those aren't the people in the door, but are the actual sold tickets. (Just for comparison, last year was 8977 - Friday Night, 11980 - Saturday night (with 2 sellouts in there on Saturday.))
If I had to venture a guess, I would say that there are roughly 7,500 to 8,000 season tickets for Friday and 8,500 to 9,000 for Saturday nights (if you were to guess at a 10-25% walk up rate for both nights. Those estimates are based on the early attendance numbers for some of the games. Ferris State 11/28 - 9217, Ferris State 11/29 - 10044, Penn State 12/5 - 8957, Penn State 12/6 - 10091.)
If they didn't take a hit, I would be shocked, but I can't see the ticket numbers falling as far or as fast as some in here are thinking that they will. Of course, I'm just an idiot fan, so what do I know?
