Just some useless info to contribute to the thread. Yes - its March, I'm bored.
Bama and Auburn ranked #2 and #8 respectively in 2009 Spring Game attendance.
Bama's 2009 A Day = 84,050
Auburn's 2009 A Day = 45,381 => This was actually the biggest A Day ever at AU. The previous high was 38K.
Others' Spring Games:
1. Ohio State 95,722
3. Nebraska 77,670
4. Penn State 76,500
5. Florida 65,000
6. Tennessee 51,488
7. Michigan 50,000
9. Texas 44,000
10. Georgia 42,458
11. Virginia Tech 41,000
12. Florida State 36,000
13. Mississippi State 31,606
14. Notre Dame 31,104
15. LSU 30,532
Also something interesting: Bama's A Day was FREE and was on ESPN, which makes it a very attractive draw. Other schools who also had FREE admission for Spring Games were: Penn St, Michigan, Texas, Georgia, VT, FSU and Miss St
So don't be so quick to put AU down for 45K at A Day Bham. It wasn't what Bama's was, but it was still pretty good in the big picture. Yeah thats right - Spring Game attendance smack talk. Get you some bitches.
