Better than any crowd last year. I'd say 5500 which was pretty great all things considered.

The mustang club board all chipped In and bought the last 200 tickets around noon today. We then donated the seats to the school to give to students and faculty.

The energy of the students was not there tonight but overall a great turnout given the weather. We had more celebrities than a Mavs game - Romo, Garrett, Sanders Sr. aka Primetime, Dalembert, Showalter and Dallas Mayor Rawlings.

It was definitely a more muted student section and overall crowed tonight. I blame the cold weather, a pretty standard boring blow out game, and saving up energy for cinci.
I'd say 5,500 at game, little better than I expected. Students packed on side as well as end zones. Suites looked very full too. I thought it was a great showing. I hope the Pro athletes keep coming.
I will have my eye out for Troy Aikman on Saturday. And I am sure Cole and Sterling will be there. Would be really great if Romo made it too!
We need Troy and Emmitt now. Mike Modano, too. I've been tweeting Brian Baumgartner (Kevin on The Office and Meadows '93) to come to a game since we have his fathead in the stands.
