Highmark Stadium has around 3500-4000 seats! With Heinz Field having 3000 or so more seats added during the spring game it might have been the best available stadium! Next the Spring Game will be at Heinz Field.
Dude. I don't know where you tried to park, but we got there 40 minutes before the game and there were tons of parking spots left. It just took a little while to get to them. The stadium was pretty full but we found for seats and had a really good time.
Pitt folks are saying 5,300. But in any case, it was a nice crowd, and I anticipate bigger crowds in the future provided there's some greater success during the season.
I don't know about bigger crowds for the spring game, unless we start seeing a top 20 team. Today you had the combo of a beautiful day + free T-shirt + cool new head coach + Tyler Boyd + James Conner...
