Spring Game Question

[FQDawg]

How many people usually go to the spring game? Is parking a hassle or can you generally park anywhere you want?

Thinking of going for the first time ever this year.

Parking won't be a problem.. The crowd will be between 15 and 25k. Should be an easy experience.

That being said... I've been to the largest spring game (one of Mullen's first) to one of the smallest (any one of Crooms). It's never been a hassle.

The crowds have seemed to get smaller and smaller in recent years. We usually just make up the attendance. I fully expect the announced crowd to be either 25,520 or 15,520.

The first one I ever went to was in Mullen's first Spring, and the football seemed like a much bigger deal then. In some ways I feel like it's evolved into more of a huge baseball weekend and then people are like "oh yeah, we can go see football too I guess." I know a lot of the frats have big parties so that plays into things too, but yeah. The spring football game hype has seemed to die down in a big way.

Can't say I don't understand why. It is relatively interesting for about 30 minutes and then there's no real point in staying after that. I'm curious to see Keytaon and the JUCO transfers in action if nothing else, though.

Big crowd expected. 55,020.

The spring game suffered some last year because if you wanted to get into the baseball game and have a seat you couldn't stay for the whole game

When I was in school we took coolers in the stadium. This was Mullens 1st or 2nd year I believe. I don't remember much, just that watching football in DWS with a cooler of beer was 17ing sweet.
