Decline in attendance?
Under 6 class system:
At Papa Johns Total Attendance:
2007----46620 (St. X and Trinity accounted for 15,696)
2008----34773
At WKU:
2009-----37339
2010-----47759
2011-----40160
2012-----46738
2013-----24188 (Weather was absolutely awful. Snow and Ice)
2014-----41937
2015-----44022 (Those schedule changes really screwed attendance, huh?)
The game is better attended at WKU. It is a better venue for the players and coaches. It just happens to be in the Western part of the state and some folks will never be happy about that.
