    2008 attendance

    What is everyones thoughts on the possible attendances for 2008? This year was surely the most attended Panther football season ever with us averaging over 16k per game. This season came in with very high hopes and for the most part it delivered and that resulted in the great attendance. Next season, at least at this point, is very unknown. We could be great, we could be average. Will the great Panther fans continue to pack the dome regardless next year? I sure hope so, this season was fantastic with the support.

    One of my current roomates and I won't miss a home game next year, and I'll try to make the road games

      I think in years like this you see greater interest in season ticket sales for the next year. This may have been the season to push me into season tickets. If I'm going to go to the games anyway, I just as well have a reserved seat. More tailgating that way.

        If I wasn't a student next year I'd probably get season tickets instead of spending 15 a game. My GF graduates this spring and will probably buy a season ticket

          I don't know if the cedar valley will support this team if they are not undefeated. It seems like the only time we get sellouts is when we are undefeated. Look at past seasons, we have lost a few games then got hot for the playoffs, we just have to stick with the team all year and hope they get hot at the right time. I challenge all fans to show up and sell this place out no matter what our record is!! The true panther fans need to be there no matter what, and if we get in the playoffs, anyone can win it all so we need to be there no matter what our regular season record is!!!!!

            I think our best days are ahead! I think the Panthers won a lot of new fans this season! Yes, they were sucessful, and yes, we had high hopes, but at the same time, just experinceing that electrifying atmosphere of the dome while full is neat. Plus, it's family friendly and affordable. Panther tickets can be bought for a fraction of what ISU and Iowa tickets get.
            To be honest, UNI has always been a directional school. Our base is NorthEast Iowa. We should branch out the marketing statewide, expand the radio network, and push Mediacom and other outlets for more TV, statewide. I read somewhere that there were 30,000 ticket requests for the Delaware game. The fans are out there, obviously. This is a great time to strike with the marketing while we're still in the collective memory of the entire state.
