Clemson needs to downsize their stadium

[AlaskaGuy]

@Kaplony

Here is why Clemson football did not sell out a home game in 2018

If only Clemson had won more games last season this might have never happened. Am I right @DeafOranguntan

Read your own article dumbass.

“Our biggest factor tends to be the opponent and how many folks they bring,” said Clemson assistant athletic director for ticket operations Owen Godfrey, alluding to the tickets Clemson allots to opponents.

We don't need to downsize our stadium, we need to cut the visitor allotment because they are the ones not selling the tickets.

Downsize to 70,000 and problem solved. Maybe throw in some NFL type seating while your at it.

Or cut the visitor allotment and sell them ourselves and pocket that much more money. If we downsize to 780k we'll be just as small time as Washington.

I blame it on this ...

Clemson ending this football gameday tradition for 2018

Threads like these are a good thing, it means your team is on the radar.

most visiting schools return their unsold allotment and those are generally sold at the gate.

Hmmm...sounds a lot like the Huskies quaint little digs.

The little league baseball field I used to play at doesn’t seat much less than that.

I think the Clemson article hit the nail on the head with..."Clemson opens the season Sept. 1 when it hosts Furman." - that sounds like the bigger issue here.

As for Nebraska... fuck that, keep it. They don't want us to release the balloons... don't let us score a touchdown. These environmental protections and activists are getting out of hand, creating something to gripe about so they feel some sense of purpose in their life. I would like to see the 'scientific' study on how Nebraska's 50 year balloon tradition is destroying the environment.

Otherwise

Sad thing is there were probably more Furman fans in the stands than any of our home ACC games, and that includes a game against a NC State team who was not only undefeated but had come close to beating us the two previous games. I know for a fact that in 2016 SC State brought more fans than any of our ACC opponents.

That's the problem with playing in the ACC. Too many schools don't travel very well.

Wake doesn't. BC doesn't. Pitt, Syracuse, Duke, UVA...none of them bring anybody. It is difficult to allocate tickets/season tickets on a yearly basis. Teams are better off scheduling 1-AA in-state opponents or border
state 1-AA's than even P5 schools from far away. The 1-AA fan will travel to a "name" school just to enjoy
a real football weekend. Clemson, it seems, always schedules an in-state 1-AA. There is nothing wrong with
that. It sure as hell lowers the guarantee. You can knock off 100 grand just by keeping them off an airplane.

We don't have that luxury. There's only two in the state and we won't schedule FAMU in football, baseball or
basketball, because there will be trouble. Even in women's sports. Basketball only gives them a game a year
and the same in softball. Talk about a school having a chip on their shoulder...good heavens.

There's only three schools who travel in the ACC: Clemson, FSU, and Virginia Tech. Georgia Tech will travel to Clemson and FSU but other than that they are with the rest. Hell, the NC schools barely travel to games they have in Charlotte either preseason or bowls.
