#NewDey!

Interesting NFL attendance observations.

* 28 of 32 teams area at announced attendance of 90% capacity or more

* The #Bengals are at 71% - the next closest team is Tampa Bay at 84.6%

* The Bengals were at 78% in '18 and 81% in '17 according to this page pic.twitter.com/XSp1fzOIow

When I try to find actual attendance, I can never find it. The numbers say 46,000 when it look like less than 20,000. Have you ever run into actual attendance numbers?

That graphic in that post. They announced some 47,000 for the game, but I doubt it was that high.

Good it's the only thing we can do as fans to hopefully promote change, as sad as that sounds. Mike Brown stated at the being of the year in his sit down interview that he noticed fans aren't going to the games. Tanking and not going to games is are best course of action. Meaningless wins and fans supporting this garbage will only hurt the Bengals in the long run.

That’s still too many people going.

I can’t believe that 47,000 is actual attendance. I get that it’s tickets sold but that still seems bogus.

There's a new rule called The Mikey Proviso that allows owners to count fans dressed up as empty seats towards actual attendance figures.

45 of that 71% has to be the opposing teams fans. I never see that many Bengals fans there.

Good point. I’d like to see the per game breakdown. I bet the Steelers, Ravens and Browns are the highest attendance due to visiting fans.

That would be intersting to know. I'm going purely off of what I see on TV. I dont live in ohio and have never been able to make it out there. And I dont think I'll be making it a priority to get there anytime soon unfortunately unless they get good somehow.

Nobody should go to boycott Mike Brown. Mike Brown smiles knowing the stadium will be full of Steelers Fans and Browns Fans in 2 remaining games. Mike doesn't care which teams fans buy the tickets.

I keep hearing claims that the club level, which has been sparse for years now, had more people watching from inside than out in the seats.

I think Mikey counted himself and perhaps as 2 people given how fat he is, he pretty much took up two seats

I’m sure he’s planning his move to some other sucker city, and I’m at the point where I may be relieved because I will no longer feel this ridiculous compulsion to still watch this nonsense.

If it's inclement weather, yeah, it can get pretty crowded.  But, yesterday was beautiful and most were outside.  I went inside to get something to eat before halftime and so I could make it back out to see the old players being honored, and there were no food lines and a lot of empty tables. 

Fans are tired of mediocrity. This isnt rocket science. Put a winner on the field and butts will be in seats.

You are still watching this nonsense ???

If ownership ever moves to another city it reminds me of an old, old song.  Pack Up Your Troubles In Your Old Kit Bag and Smile, Smile, Smile. 

I have to admit I watched game with eye on other games. In Fantasy Football I loaded up on Jaguars and Bills due to awful Bengals and Dolphins. Now to try to dump them and add Rams and Steelers against awful Bengals and Dolphins. I did not watch thinking Bengals would win.

They had one of our concession stands closed just like a pre season game.

isn't that including tickets for fans of the opposing team? Only the season ticket holders are going to games with nothing else better to do than feel like they need to get the value for their money.

low attendance is diffenately a reason you wont see some of the star players get traded.. Goal is the fill the seats not void the stadium
