What's up with the attendance? The Falcons game was on my short list of games I was gonna try to attend this year. I realize that the Giants and Panthers games were prime time, but geesh. I couldn't even sell my tickets at face value for the Seahawks game.

If I am not mistaken, there were wy too many standing room only fans so they cut back on number.

considering Texas Stadium held about 64,000 thats 16,000 more tickets that did sell for this game that would not have been available in the past.

also throw in the fact that seattle sucks this year so their fans are not spending money to travel and see them.

add in all the media stories about how expensive it is to see a game and a lot of people just believe it and dont go.

to be honest times are kinda tough and even at face value a lot of people just dont need to be spending that money on tickets right now.

so there ya go, lots of reasons.

next time you need to get rid of tickets at face value let me know, i always have friends and family wanting to go with us.

thats pretty much it.

and it was basically obvious the seattle game would be the worst home game crowd of the year. Bad team, Noon start and a holiday weekend.

the crowds will be up from here on out.

the washington crowd will be big and loud.
the thanksgiving crowd is always good.
the chargers with local boy LT will be big and loud.
and the eagles game, well that might be as big as the giants game.
