UW vs Boise viewership

Not to dispute the outrage, angst, mockery, etc., but Disney pulled ABC/ESPN off Spectrum/Charter (15M subscribers) last week in a rates dispute. So any game in the ESPN family theoretically was unavailable to those folks

Interesting to note Notre Dame-Tennessee State did 1.56M - or about 20% less than UW.

Yeah, that was a non-competitive game (56-3) against a bad FCS program, but UW-Boise wasn't exactly a nailbiter

People do know ABC is free right and available to 100% of the country?

Judging by the outrage on the internets I'd say no, no they don't

Is it in HD?

From my couch(not for sale) I was pleasantly surprised at how full the stadium was. It looked full or fairly close. It still amazes me how many people pay to go watch live football and then spend half of the game in line for concessions or beer or just leave early

"Nearly 15 million cable viewers lost access to ESPN, ABC and other Disney-owned channels over Labor Day weekend when the global entertainment company and cable giant Charter Communications failed to renew a distribution deal. Attempting to watch the U.S. Open or games from the first weekend of the college football season, subscribers to Charter's cable TV service, Spectrum, instead encountered blackouts."

Guessing a pretty decent percentage of those folks wouldn't know how to find a work around and get ABC

It was pretty full but very miserable if you were on the north side (only the nosebleeds were in the shade).

I wasn't the only one who left for the concourse for awhile multiple times.
 
complaining about late start times, and then complaining about having to sit in the the sun for a 1230 kickoff is why west coast football is dying.

its hard

From the south side, you could tell everyone moved up from the 200s into the 300s to be in the shade
 
I was in the Sun the whole game. It was brutal. I shelved my “drink until they stop serving me” way of watching live football and switched to lots and lots of water. No matter how much I drank I always felt like dying. Didn’t move into the shade or leave early though. I’m Gen X-raised by pre-Boomer parents tough.

Is it dying or are the fan bases just weaker than the teams on the field?

Fair enough. Ppl in the south care more and dgaf. That said they have to live in the south. But still. It's not like it's Texas hot and people are complaining.

Fanbases in the Midwest and south also attend the night games. It's just a difference of importance.
