2024 Charlotte 49er Football 🏈

I am pretty sure the BofA game is neutral site. Duke’s Mayonnaise Bowl people host the game.

Let’s be honest with ourselves, app will have more fans there than us, so it won’t be a home game environment.

Hopefully students at least get free tickets. If they don’t I fear we will be outnumbered 2:1.

They should give a free ticket to every student that wants one. They aren’t free - those athletic fees cover them. We need a maximum crowd and we need to make the game an event that they cannot miss. If theyre worried about the resale market, you can check student IDs at the gate with the ticket (need both for the “free” ticket).

The amazing thing is that the students can all ride the train to the game if they want. For free. That makes it a zero excuses for non attendance event.

Take over the train. Take over BofA.

This isn’t hard.

And no last second whiteout/blackout bull crap. I’d say just wear green and don’t complicate it. Especially since white and black are App colors. Wear green. Get the word out.

Agree. Not hard.

But they need to start marketing it now.

I’m a little shocked they haven’t been mentioning it during the games.

First game in BOFA. First game next year. vs App. Compete to see who can bring the most fans.

Get it in the kids and fans heads asap. Make it an event that every member of Niner nation needs to be at.

I hope the new coach brings back the green and gold pants. We need more than white since we are not Penn State.

No they are not included in the season ticket package. It will be a separate charge. We do not set the price point for the game.

Student tickets are also not included but I know they are working to try to buy a chunk for students or sell them discounted with our AD picking up a chunk of the price.

The good news is App will Have the same challenges with their fans. Also we always have good turn outs when we do things in the city. I would expect a much larger Charlotte crowd than normal. I’ve already had CLT friends who have never been to Richardson ask me about the game at BoA.

Nice of the Twitter account to remind us we don’t play in December.

Just one game away this year!

I’m sorry to say but unless we knock the football hire out of the park, you can all but guarantee there will be more App fans than Niners fans at Bank of America stadium next fall. That’s a sad reality, but one we may have to face very soon.

Come ooooon Boooobbbbbbyyyyyy!

App fans are as down on their program as we are here. Maybe even more so.

I don’t think we will out number them, but we will have a really solid crowd there because our casual fanbase has always turned out when we do things in town. The spectrum games have had 4 times the attendance we were getting in Halton regards of how bad the team was.
