This might be a stupid question, I dont know. But if Tiger Stadium only holds 91,600, how can we have crowds over that? Never really understood that.
I also beleive they issue more sutdent tickets than there are allotted seats. That right there could push us over.
I was told that they count every human being that enters the gates...ticket holders, ushers (I am a proud Scout LSU alumnus), staff, concession workers, etc. You always end up with more than the seats hold.
The difference was the student section because every isle and walkway was filled by the excess students. I would guess there were a lot of students not normally there every game. Believe me it was packed in tight and probably the record in attendence.
