It did. Hurricanes must be jealous of our OCS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, all bets are off. Hopefully we did extensive research. From Wikipedia .... Snapdragon Stadium opened for a SDSU scrimmage on August 20, 2022.[27] The first game in the stadium was played on September 3,[28] ending with the Aztecs being defeated 38–20 by the Arizona Wildcats.[29] The game occurred during a heat wave, resulting in heat illnesses among attendees that required the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department to send five ambulances and three fire engines to treat around 200 people, 20 of which were hospitalized.[30][31]By kickoff, the game started when the temperature reached 100 °F (38 °C), with attendees retreating from the seating area and into shade. On social media, the stadium design was called into question by fans because of the lack of shade.[32] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First game yes, not so sure after that unless it’s a big name OOC team. One thing I have not seen discussed directly is the impact of our new look conference on visiting fan attendance. Obliviously that’s not your primary audience, but it certainly helps the cause playing teams with established fan bases that can help fill a stadium.

Honestly, though, have we really had any conference mates since leaving the BE, outside of the vermin, that would really help fill a stadium ....?

I am thinking 1000 to 2000 but have no clue. I doubt many teams bring more than that in the new AAC. Edited August 29, 2023 by Outlaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
