Guess the Attendance: Portland

[StormTrooper]

You better believe we're doing this for basketball. I won't do every game but I thought it would be fun for the season opener.
Buffs are now 1-1 and have looked pretty good, all things considered, in their first two games.
Season ticket sales are down from last year and it's on the first Friday of Thanksgiving break for students.
My guess is rather dire: 7,432

 

[Darth Snow]

Didn't sell out season tix this year. Going to be down unless the students step up big. 7,569.

Many will be gone for break.

 

[CitizenKane]

7,573 because I have to come and drag a few others along for the ride now.

 

[Buffnik]

All I know is that the Allbuffs crew will be loud enough to make it sound like 12k as long as the students do their part.

 

[boulder77]

I'm a little more optimistic: 8,875

 

[DeNiro]

With how we closed the year and students being gone we won't have any casually fans and some season ticket holders will skip it, 7,111.

 

[89BUFF89]

7,981

 

[GoBuffs88]

8,250

 

[DBT]

6,742

These threads are always paid because there is no way to know the "actual" attendance

start naming the threads "Guess the official attendance: XXXX" and remove all ambiguity.

I bet the weather definitely kept some casuals away. It was pretty cool hanging out in the beer tent and watching the snow come down, though!
