GOSTAGS, good analysis

If you take oput the 2 Snow games, we averaged 2,800.... still down from the 2,900 of last year, which included the "Hostage Game". However you look at it we were down 300-400 fans/game. I would describe our attendance situation as follows:

- We have 2,500 dedicated fans that will attend weekend games
- We have 2,000 dedicated fans that will attend weekday games
- For special games we can get 4000-5000 fans
- Our season tickets need to increase, as that directly affected our attendance this year
- Consistent winning will gradually bring up attendance
- We need to schedule smarter. The Monday after Thanksgiving is a disaster date. And if we are to do Weekend games, we MUST be conscious of Giants/Jets games along with NFL playoff games. Suggestion, start the game at NOON on a weekend if Giants are playing at 4PM

With all that said I was most disapointed with the Homecoming attendance of only 3,000+. Some serious Marketing of our Alumni has to ge done.

Focus on Season Tickets and Alumni Marketing.

Its all about winning. Need to have 2-3 more 16-20 win years and then we can expect 5000 per night.

As mentioned prior its hard to focus on season tickets. 2 games were played this year, where it was difficult to attend unless you lived close to B-port. Right now it is fiscally prudent to buy the cheap seats at the door for the games where driving isn't hazardous and sit where you want.

Seasons tix will increase when the team gets better, people want to guarantee themselves a tix and people want to make sure they get a good seat.
