I also take issue about the half full stadium comment (not to mention the stupid stereotype of Chardonnay imbibing). The stadium was pretty full last night. Id estimate about 80% full at its peak midway through the first quarter and probably two-thirds full at the point we tackled Browning on fourth down and went into victory formation.

Also of note: most of the people who were abandoning ship after halftime were in purple (in my section, at least).

Well, you could take it as an indictment that there were so many folks in purple. Id estimate about 20% or so.
Still it was a factually incorrect stereotype that the stadium was half-filled or that everyone was tipsy on Chardonnay.

I actually didn't think it was that bad. Like, the visitor's section got plenty loud, but my area had about as many UW fans as we had WSU fans last year. It certainly wasn't like USC or ND.
