Another thing is that it is hard to get people out for cold weather games. If it was 15 above yesterday I'm sure there would have been more than the 31k that were at Mcmahon.

It's also difficult to sell tickets for a semi-final because you've got only one week of notice as well. But in general, I just don't like the pissing matches about attendance. Any game that sells out or sells over 30 thousand should be looked on as a positive for the league. Anyway, Taylor Field is going to have awesome atmosphere next week.
