It was the first time in a long time (and a non-Big Game situation) that I can remember as a season ticket holder that I actually had to pull out my tickets and try and figure out what exact seats our group of 20 season ticket holders had.

Because this time, there were actual butts in the seats on all sides of us.

I don't know if every single seat was sold at gametime, but I can say that I was shocked at the fact that the stadium seemed FULL.

And while it's true that a few fans here and there left as the score margin got larger... I was also shocked that as I looked over to the shady side, even on the upper bowl... even in the 3rd and 4th quarters... butts were *still in the seats*.  All the way to the end of the game.

I was pretty pleasantly surprised.  And pretty happy about it.
