Not bad considering games were played an hour away from campus and the student body

That is sad considering every game I went to it was more than half empty

got more Greenville/Spartanburg people that otherwise wouldnt have made the trip for a 7pm game during the week. The students attendance record was questionable even when the games were at LJ

in mid-Feb, the term "middle of no-freakin'-where" takes on a new layer of meaning..a basketball game is probably a major social event...(of course, many Tiger fans lament the sizeable population increase in the Seneca/Clemson/Pendleton/Central area in the last couple of decades).I imagine Logan's grown considerably since I visited there, but suspect there still ain't much goin' mid-week in the winter

remains to be seen if the reduction in capacity was a good idea...

Leaders are worried about more people watching, they're more

looking forward to the supply/demand issue, driving up revenues in the event the team gets on a multi-year hot streak. More IPTAY donations required, higher per seat rights fees, higher ticket prices. It was a smart business reason on that end, including tricking better players to coming to play at Clemson.

would be interesting to see it as % of capacity

Comparing the 14-15 season in LJ to last year in the Well, Attendance went up in absolute terms, but as a percentage of capacity, it went down considerably
If the 16-17 team can draw as well or better than the 14-15 team, we’ll be looking at around 90% capacity as an average
One thing for sure, the opening game this November will be have big crowd (a sell-out?) , unlike the opening games of the last few seasons
