Announced crowd

People need to think this through. 46,000 people means that two out of every three seats in the building were full. If we leave the student sections out of this and maybe a couple of the club level sections, let's say we just consider the "regular" seating sections, were there ANY sections in the whole stadium that were 2/3 full? No, of course not. Not even close. In fact none of those sections were even half full. Many (most) weren't even a quarter full.
The number of actual people there yesterday might have started with a "2", but if it didn't it was because it started with a "1", not a "3" or, laughably, a "4".
Cause of chemo doctors advise me that it wouldn't be a good idea.
But next year I'll be there for every game no matter what!!!
I'm a diehard I'll be damn if I miss my PANTHERS next year!!?
Always H2P FOREVER!!!
I was there. Maybe I missed it but I did not hear them announce the attendance.
But if you were there then ; WHO GIVES A DAMN.
The place was electric, the students were great and Pitt kicked the crap out of Louisville.
Attendance figures and statistics are for whiners, losers and those people who have an ax to grind with Pitt.
So, keep bitching and you’ll continue to feel better about yourself.
Hail to Pitt. I’m
Thank you for asking
Igot great news from doctor
Cancer in remission. They want me to continue chemo for 5 more times (2 times a month). They want make sure that there's no microscope cells in body that can cause it to come back
Hope my hair comes back
You got to trust the doctor and believe in GOD.
Always H2P FOREVER!!!
No one is offended or upset because you weren't there, in fact maybe some one moved into your seats and enjoyed the view if you were not able to dump them off. Buying tickets IS supporting Pitt so even if you can't make it all the time you are appreciated.
With a loud crowd of 46, 000 + a few regulars deciding to stay home did not harm the team in any way.
Keep plugging and stay focused on next season for 10 wins.
That is too hard for some people which is why I say think of it as a 45Kish seat stadium with no upper deck endzone and no visiting side upper deck. Imagine moving those people to the lower bowl. So 46K means moving those people would have packed every seat in the lower bowl or home upper deck
NCAA allows schools to count attendance by either "Actual Attendance" which is how many fans get into the stadium/game with a ticket or by "Paid Attendance" which is basically tickets sold for that game (it's a little more complicated than that but I'm not going into detail) ..... I suspect Pitt announces "Paid Attendance" which would include ~30,000-35,000 season tickets, 5,000-10,000 student tickets, some visiting fan tickets, and some single game tickets bought, etc. ...... if you don't go to the game but bought a ticket, most count in "Paid Attendance" (there are some tickets bought that don't count unless you attend the game depending on how much they cost compared to the highest paid ticket).
Didn’t go to the UNC or UL game. Missing UNC broke my streak of 10 straight Pitt home games dating back to 2021. Also went to the Miami game down in FL last November. I’ll be there for FSU & BC, no doubt
FWIW, the NFL makes teams announce paid attendance now. That shifted last season I think during the middle of the year. Pitt definitely does the same.
I know they're firmly against tarps, but downsizing the stadium would be pretty cool. I'm all for putting more students in the lower level and compacting the season tickets on the visitors side. There are too many empty seats over there, get the students around the corner for a few extra sections.
Pitt most definitely does not announce actual paid attendance. Pitt announces total tickets distributed.
And frequently adds on from there.
