Was there a specific instance where a light turned on?
I took my 11-year-old daughter and six-year-old son to the opener against Villanova in 1998. A 48–41 victory. We sat right next to the band. When the team came back on the field, for the second half, the band played the fight song, and my son was dancing in the aisle. When the band broke off into groups to go around the stadium to play during the third quarter, they asked if they could take my son and daughter. after that, my son was going to go to Pitt, and he was gonna play in the band. it’s the only school he ever really wanted to go to. Unfortunately, only one of two came true, he played in the band 2011–2015. We’ve had football season tickets ever since then, along with basketball last year in volleyball this year. he was able to be in the band because they have a role that if the school you go to doesn’t have a marching band, you can be in Pitt band. He went to CCAC, and eventually graduated from Duquesne.
Remember the $5 kids tickets at Pitt Stadium? don’t you think that would be a pretty good idea to grow the fan base now? Hell, keep them at $5. They would make up the difference in concessions.
