Yep. I'd be willing to bet the number of people who like football has a lot of crossover with kids who play football in the area. Friday night game just lost every HS kid and family member even losely connected to the sport through participation. Not to mention every local prospect you'd like to have come see you play a "big time" opponent or watch you on TV that night.

But we'll be on national TV and everyone will see that we didn't really have 39k in the seats without JK having to tell them.

I hate mid-week games. Automatically takes me out of going.

When half of the club section is hanging indoors it definitely does add to the poor optics on TV.  

I have club seats and feel at times like I’m wasting my money.  I only go up to the club at halftime to use the bathroom and maybe grab a beer.  I prefer being in my seat...call me old fashion.

You figure people know they can watch the game on tv from home for free versus paying for a ticket to watch tv at the game.

And yet for some reason people still go to watch parties. Some people value comradery, being at an event and being out more than they value a few dollars.
