Guess the Attendance: Rocky Mountain Showdown

A tradition unlike any other... Guess the Attendance rides again!
It's the last RMS in Denver, at least for the foreseeable future. Last year saw a dip in attendance after years of increasing numbers, largely because of a drop in CSU turnout. I can't imagine it's going to be any better this year with how dire the predictions for their season are. I don't think the fact that it's the last game in Denver is gonna make that much of a difference to them when they have a home game in this series coming up next year. Our ticket sales don't look awesome either. My guess? 67,067 announced.

Recent RMS attendances:
2018: 70,158
2017: 73,932
2016: 69,850
2015: 66,253
2014: 63,363
 
Curious- after hitting 70k+ the last two years, why is everyone certain this year that the attendance will go down so much?
Because last year was a big decrease from the previous year and because I think both fanbases are as skeptical about their teams as they have been in a while.

68000 even. Good turn out of the black and gold to support CMT in his first game as our new leader, but more rammie fans stay home than in years past.
 
I think if there were no future games in this series on the schedule there'd be more of a buzz, but "last one in Denver" doesn't seem to be a big enough draw on its own.
