Attendance Points

[NotAnAlum]

Does anyone know what Attendance Points are?  They are shown in your account area of the MU web site.  They are not the priority points which of course control seat selection.

MU keeps track of how many games u go to and u get points for each, and at the end of the year they give prizes to people with certain levels of points.

Uh .. that may be something else.  Students are tracked for Fanatic Points or whatever they're called.

Indeed, on the Ticketmaster "My Marquette" page for your account (season ticket holders) it does have a "Current Attendance Points" .. that was there last year, too.  I asked a B&G guy about it, and he said it was a hold-over from the NBA template on ticketmaster.com ..

5 years ago, I think an attendance point thingie would have been worthwhile, as on a cupcake OOC game, 30-40% of the lower bowl seats could be empty.  These past few years, I'd say it's closer to 10% empty -- although much of that increase is that STHs give their seats away more often, to kids, etc, who find MU games much more entertaining now than x years ago.
