Lehigh just over 5k and only 32% of capacity for an undefeated, highly ranked team. No wonder we have a Lehigh fan who frequents this board.

Yeah, but we’re struggling ourselves. Slow starts every year and boring game plans doesn’t help our attendance.

And we do absolutely nothing of substance to promote our football or basketball programs. We are very insular.

The same chart shows UR at nearly 6K and 68% capacity and that is for a rather boring team with a 6-4 record and 0.500 record in conference. Based on the article would seem that UR Football is in a much better place. However, I agree that UR is lacking in the promotion department.

Absolutely no help from admin on that front.

Disappointing considering our resources with a business school across the street and a marketing specific major...

A few years ago I participated in B school project about improving football game day attendance and experience. That’s all I know except I was told the project received a good grade.

To a fan viewing on TV, I would say the 6k was the total attendance for the year not a per game average.
How are they calculating that? It certainly isn't fannies in the seats!
If a portion of the student activity fee goes to free tickets for games, I can see that accounting for 3k of the 6. If they sold 2.5 k in season tickets, I would be surprised with the fan base supporting football aging out. Walk ups can't be more than 500 a game.

Having our stadium over the mountain from campus in the middle of cornfields does not make it a magnet for students. Add in the administration discourages "traditional" tailgating festivities and you have a recipe for muted attendance. We used to have a stadium in the heart of campus but it was torn up and discarded.
