       2019 G3: STONY BROOK vs. Wagner 6pm SNY
       By: guest369 Date: September 14, 2019, 2:04 am

       It’s our SNY debut! Not to mention the first game where alcohol
       is being sold at LaValle.
       I know we almost got 10,000 people last time, but I’d be shocked
       if we came even close this week. The students are pissed off and
       boycotting football because they moved the Homecoming tailgate
       away from the big lot to host a BBQ there instead.
       I can see this affecting the entire season’s attendance numbers
       because the kids are unbelievably angry. They want to watch
       attendance numbers crash and burn and so many of them are flat
       out refusing to ever attend a football game again. Victor Ochi
       tweeted about it too and got plenty of support.

       Yup, and I engaged in that conversation. Ochi is 100%. This
       university only has it's priority set on making money and lost
       all connections with the student base. Attendance will crash and
       burn from the students and eventually, it will trickle it's way
       down to the season ticket holders. Dark days ahead for this
       program if they dont start listening to the students..

       I have been saying that for the last 3 years that they should
       have school kids come for free and I also have been saying that
       with the amount of HS teams playing on Friday Nights there is no
       reason not to have a bunch of teams on Saturday. I also told the
       AD with the amount of NYC kids coming here SBU should work a
       deal with the LIRR to get City fans out to games plus give a
       good deal on game tickets plus something from the snack bar.
       One last thing when we were out in Utah last week since it was
       their first home game they marched in all the incoming freshmen
       and gave them a free seat in the student section it was awesome
       to see that

       Quite frankly, I thought it was stupid that we didn’t tailgate
       for every single home game last year and only went all out
       during homecoming. That’s pathetic. Look at any Big Ten school
       and how the kids go crazy for game day — any game day — and then
       look at us with our empty lot for all but one game of the entire
       year. Something needs to change. It’s inexcusable that the lot
       isn’t rocking every home game.

       crowd looks embarrassingly thin.

       That’s the power of protest for you.

       wagner couldnt run the ball.  rushing attempts were 59 to 12
       (not sure i've seen that before!).
       on the other side- nekhet and white and fields were great on the
       ground.  credit to the OL for opening nice holes, especially on
       the off tackle.  we had some miscues (lots of flags early) and a
       50 yard TD run called back, but got the job done.
       3rd down wagner was 1/10; we were 10/19.  that seems to always
       be the leading indicator.
       GO SB

       Rarely do i complain about gameday experience or anything else
       but i have to say this. We took some special needs teenagers to
       the game tonight. One of the young men had on a plastic kids
       football helmet ( a kids halloween costume helmet )  and also
       had a football with him. He was stopped at the gate and told he
       couldnt bring either into the game. Correct me if i am wrong but
       i have seen kids throwing footballs on that hill since the
       stadium opened. Also they have the youth teams who play at
       halftime bring in real football helmets to the stadium. I mean
       this young man is clearly special needs and just eanted to wear
       his helmet and hold his football witch he does everyday and
       these out of touch dbags stop him as if he has illegal contraban
       on him. Not to mention the fact that the two of us are football
       alumni who took the kids to the game. Unreal how they continue
       not to get it, not cool. On a side note to this i was told by an
       employee if the NY Lizards lacrosse team that they wont play at
       SB because they are to difficult to deal with and are not fan
       friendly like they are at hofstra where they let kids bring in
       their sticks.

       Attendance? A pitiful 5,742. A drop off of almost 4,000 from
       last game. That’s how badly athletics has angered the student
       base. I don’t see their boycott ending anytime soon. We haven’t
       had attendance numbers that low since last year’s rainy home
       opener.
