One way to help, do what minor league baseball does. Anytime they give away a bobble head or something collectible they stadium is always fuller than nights they’re don’t. All the give always are pretty much provided by advertisers so it shouldn’t cost much. This would help anyway. Imop

I’ll be the first to admit I’m half special but I just spent last ten minutes trying to find a promo code input field. Took it all the way to checkout, still couldn’t find a promo code input field. I gave up, instead of the promos just price the left over GA’s at a reasonable price (20-22 bucks) and you wouldn’t need the promos and you wouldn’t be crying about empty seats. I use to weasel my way to 4 or so games a year. Last 2 years I’ve gone to 1 game each season but they were tickets given to me. So I wasn’t aware of the price changes. Went to OU game this year, sparked my interest in trying to go to a few more games. This certainly has killed it again. Hate to be the cranky guy but TV is fine with me.

There has definitely been a concerted effort by that athletic department to try to help get tickets used since Marshall made his comments. I like to see that. Don't just put it on the fans. We're literally all on the same team here.

I had this very thought as well but it turns out, apparently not. I can remember a lot of discussion here leading up to the IBA games about selling out the arena. For a few years, it looks like it was accomplished. From the official box scores:
2012 Southern Mississippi - 9,619
2013 Tennessee - 14,356
2014 St. Louis - 15,004
2015 Utah - 15,004
2016 Oklahoma St. - 15,004
2017 Oklahoma - 15,004
2018 Southern Mississippi - 9,356
2019 Oklahoma - 10,727
We had quite a run going but I would say the 2018 opponent had a lot to do with lack of a sell out. But what happened this year?

Its a good landing if you can walk away, its a great landing if the plane can be reused the next day.
