Citrus, Holiday, and Outback Attendance

[Buck_Buchanan]

For those of you that have gone to all 3, - thanks for supporting the team and I’m certainly envious. Our family was fortunate to attend one (2015 Citrus).

My question is the following:

Since the announced / listed attendance of these 3 games were similar (47-48k), which Bowl had greater total number of Minnesota fans at the game? I assume Holiday had fewest? Just looking for comparisons from those who have attended more than one of these. I thank you in advance for your response(s).

There were more Gophers at the Outback than Citrus IMO. Unscientific at best.

We looked really good at both.

Thinking a touch more at the Outback.

I was at the citrus, therefore the citrus had the best crowd

Agreed. I was at both. More gopher fans at the Outback Bowl.

Outback and Citrus bowls had very similar turnouts, though I thought the Citrus might've been slightly ahead. Holiday lagged for many reasons (distance, December 26th vs. January 1st, opponent, boycott controversy), which was a shame because San Diego was probably the best destination of the three.

I second that! I was at the Citrus as well. The citation thread made me remember that I received a citation on the way there.
