Today's Attendance

Jacksonville is a relaxed football atmosphere. Compared to say up north. This right here, a lot of people were inside, was my first time with us assured tickets and didnt know that many people sit in there.

I actually gave my tickets to my son and daughter-in-law because I was gifted a couple of club seats.
From my perspective, the turnout was disappointing. I won't say that the stadium was "empty", but I can recall games in the past that were sellouts and the stadium was no question about it, full. This game by no means was close to one of the "sellout" games in the past. While I do appreciate the fans that were there and it was a good atmosphere, it's still nothing like it used to be. There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.

I sat on the east side and there was a lot of teal from empty seats showing through. 61,000 tickets may have been distributed but a significant number of the recipients stayed home.

Well, this game was against the lowly Colts and we technically had our best turnout at the 'Bank with over 61,000. Lets see next week when an actual good team comes to town.

If it had Corn or Blank #2 tho I could have been assured of sell out and high attendance status. ![]() Yes, it's improvement, but it's Blaine Gabbert 2012 level improvement. - Pirkster The Home Hypnotist!

4k less than what the New England Patriots average. As long as we are in the 60's who cares. If we were down in the 40's I'd be concerned. We're a small market and will always be in the bottom third of the league in attendance. As long as we are hovering around the other teams in the bottom third, that seems reasonable for us.

Honestly, could it be that a lot of Jacksonvillians are so unaccustomed to the prospect of a winning Jags team that it still hasn't sunk in what a extraordinary improvement we've had from year to year? It's been a culture of losing for so long. Probably most casual folks don't even realize our record could possibly be this good. But hey, if we got more than 90% of the tickets sold, that sounds good.
I thought the crowd was fine. Some empty seats where visiting fans normally get block seats.
I commented to my brother how amazingly fast the place fills up.

Our fan base is die hard... the people that have been coming tot the games in the past 10 years are still there. Our team being 8-4 has not (yet) increased ticket sales at all it seems.

Signature goes here.

The stadium was hardly empty...though there were seats in the upper east side empty. The west side, NEZ, SEZ was full of fans.

I was there. As mentioned, home side was pretty full. The visitor side looked like 35-40% seats empty at any time during the game.
