Attendance and leaving early

[knoxvols11]

I remember watching several games in Neyland during the years. With all the drama Saban stirred up about the fans leaving early I remember in the early 2000's through the end of the Fulmer era. I fan always remember the mass exadusat every game toward the end of the 3rd quarter because of the poor product on the field. What stands out the most is the announcer would announce if you leave you cannot re-enter. I always thout "why would fans want to re-enter"? The one game/time that stands out most was the GA game when Pollack caused that fumble then ran it back just before half time. After our first series of second half went no where half the stadium left!

I always thought "No Passouts" referred to drunks until I figured out what they really meant

I realize that Saban just handed our boys a beatdown but he really must've been jealous of our crowd in Neyland against USCe to hand down such a stupid edict.

The no "passouts rule" is more to prevent you from getting a few more drinks in the parking lot during halftime.

I always stay until the end, but I will admit a few times over the past couple years I've turned the tv off after the 3rd quarter. lol

I don't think you get to complain about people leaving early when it's because your team is awful and keeps getting blown out. If, on the other, you're Saban and people are leaving early because you keep blowing everyone out, then yeah, you can gripe about it.
