**** And u know they don't fill up the stadium, so I bet the home games be looking empty as hell
naa our home games look like this that is not homecoming or a classic...just a regular homegame.... a&t might be used to having 26,000 for homecoming...but that is less than our average....we support our teams in the swac
irrelevant comment... Jackson St. was 6th in I-AA in attendance, A&T was 8th... in the country.... so that lil we support our teams thing, throw it out... bad smack talk, wug (thought you had better stuff)
Ummm... you might wanna try that argument again. Your total ACCUMULATED attendance was only was 90979. Now with that number, if your stadium was filled for every game, then you would only have played one game there last season. :roll: However, in reality, you played five. I don't know what reality you're living in, but yout average attendance was actually 18196. I think that helmet be givin ya triple vision or somethin... That barely makes your average just under 2000 more people than even A&T's average. As far as black schools go, there are still two other ones that have you beat. Florida A&M and Southern U. Therefore that stadium looks nothing like that picture showed on an "average" game. In the real world, that stadium is only filled a little less than 30% of the capacity. Even when NC A&T came to play you, the attendance was only a little over 11000 people. That's not even 25% of the stadium!! Come on now Wug. We know you take pride in your school. But lying bruh? Come on... :roll:
we took a drop this year because of the losing season.... We led 4 out of the past 6 years...including 2002... check the ncaa website...us, souther, fam, and ten. st. usually compete for the attendance title every year... 3 of the top 5 were swac schools did u notice?? but fam was number one so i will give props where props are due..our numbers will probabally drop worse this year....no one came for the a&t game hardly because yall are not really from our region so there is no rivalry there.... we lost 5500 average attendance from 2002 (which we was #1) and will probabally lose 7,000 average from that number because of our lil problem right now... can't say it because the wrong people might read it...

And back to the numbers we go... First off, even if you did tack on 5500 people to the average, that still doesn't coincide with the picture that you showed above. Even with the highest attendance at that stadium from 2003 (46794 people) you don't fill the stadium like that. In addition, here are your numbers from the past six years: 1998 14277 people average 57108 people total -Okay, I'll give you some credit 38873 (from 1997) people per game is really good. However, its long enough ago that the standard has been changed. 1999 28933 people average 173600 people total 2000 11690 people average 46760 people total 2001 29067 people average 145336 people total 2002 23691 people average 94765 people total 2003 18196 people average 90979 people total NOW... The fact still stands that y'all still don't be fillin up that damn stadium. You're doing good to even get it half full. In addition, out of the schools that you named to be yearly contenders for most attendance, only two real contenders over the past six years: Southern U. and Florida A&M. You LEFT OUT North Carolina A&T which is in the top five all of the six years listed as far as HBCUs are concerned. So in conclusion: 1) You still don't fill up that staduim on enough occasions to brag about it. 2) The size of the staduim hasn't a damn thing to do with how good the team is 3) North Carolina A&T still put that ratta tat tat on 'dat Tiger ****... :twisted:

Actually, my response was going to go something like this: We'd have more attendace if there was more seating.. If you've been to a Howard game, you'd know it is cramped as ALL HELL... so people decide to watch it in the dorms like Cook or Drew or the Fine Arts Building... so.. sorry to rain on your parade.. I mean... what can I say... It really doesn't matter how many people CAN fit into your stadium... I do believe that HIU people just don't have ****else to do in the world.. LOL.. I"M JUST KIDDING.. Don't JUMP DOWN MY THROAT... But on the real tip, Southern Is CRUNK!!!!!!!!!!!!.. I can't really say that I like FAMU.. but hey, if the numbers are up there...

^^Thanx.. see.. there is such a thing as GOOD HU/HIU relations.. hell yeah.. our B-Ball team doesn't win a lot of games.. they just don't know how to close out.. In all honesty, we come to watch the band/dancers, the Tuba Section get crunk, the cheerleader challenge, the football team taking up an ENTIRE SECTION w/ they big a$$es, and then to see the Kappas twirl their kanes..("Memphis" didn't disappoint).. ooh.. and the remnants of Section 8... a couple of times, the people on the court will do something that merit us to look at them, but otherwise, its another Tuesday/Thursady night Fashion Show...
