How many UK fans will be at Ole Miss Sat.?

[HerrosHeroes]

Im hearing droves are headed to the Grove!
Its been what 12 yrs since UK played down in Oxford?
Is 10,000 Cat fans an exaggeration to get in?

Heard it could be up to 20k. I’ll be there with my parents

We will have 10...

I’m betting it will rival UK crowds at Columbia South Carolina and Knoxville. I’ve seen 6-8K at each of those venues.

I wish we could take 15K like we have to Nashville.

I concur. Unfortunately, our traveling fanbase during regular season football is not great unless it's to Nashville or Louisville (and even the crowd that goes to Louisville is underwhelming at times). This is probably due to years of losing, but hopefully it builds back up again now that we are winning.

I'd like to see 10K in blue this weekend, but that's probably a stretch.

I’m taking my Son and we are rock KY White

I am here already with #1 son. Waiting for #2 son to arrive.

I think the biggest problem is places to stay and ticket availability. It's a sellout IIRC, and there aren't a ton of hotel options in Oxford. I know folks stay an hour away and drive in but I'm sure that affects a lot of folks decision to go.

 

[Old_Red]

We are in Grenada which will probably be an hour away in the morning.

 

[wildcatdynasty006]

We got here this morning and absolutely packed with UK fans. The whole square was covered in UK blue mostly at the bars!

You’re wife is in labor with your second son and you’re in Oxford a day before our game?? Cool.

Guy’s got his priorities in order!

True. Can’t expect any lagniappe though.

Waiting on him to arrive from Texas. Don't scare my wife like that. Remember, I am Old Red.

Sorry. Couldn’t resist. Enjoy the game.

Would love to see big UK crowns and for the “Go Big Blue” chant to be heard on television while the Ole Miss fans head out of stadium. That would make for good television.

I’ll also be happy with last second win on a FG! I just want the “W.”

 

[Big Cat fan]

Kentucky football doesn't travel well on the road. We didn't get half of what little Utah fans brought into Fl.

Bro you rank your sons? That’s gotta be rough on em.

 

[BBNFORLIFE]

Dude you took that out of context. lol

 

[Greezy Kreek]

Young red says let’s walk down there and bed some of em OLD red said let’s walk down there and……

 

[Old_Red]

You are clearly too young to remember Charlie Chan.

 

[Fast3ddy]

Nobody can take a joke anymore

I can. Didn't bother me. But I bet you hadn't heard of Charlie Chan. If you have, you're old.

Envy all you guys that got to go. Work prevents me from going anymore. Use to have 5 season tickets for years. Now I work every freaking Saturday

 

[specialkd24]

A bunch of fans in Olive Branch tonight.

I think it is going to be a huge crowd. Not a bad drive from Lexington, Western Kentucky, Nashville, etc. (where there are lots of fans). A good destination we haven't been in awhile.

 

[sluggercatfan]

Wife and l have been in Tunica since Wednesday, but the B/W starting rolling in today her at the motel. I'm leaving at 5:00 in the morning headed to Oxford.

 

[tdcat]

In Tupelo tonight, about 20 UK fans were at Blue Canoe.

 

[HerrosHeroes]

Ole Miss Stadium holds about 65,000 so 20,000 UK fans and 45,000 Ole Miss fans?

I love both my kids the same. 🤔😇

No. Probably closer to 60,000 - 5,000.

 

[HerrosHeroes]

No. Probably closer to 60,000 - 5,000.

Really? I would agree with you bth normally. But this is not a normal UK football game. Ive been ridiculed again for another one of my bold statements but I truly believe and the rankings back it up, as do the variables, that this is the biggest reg. season UK football game since the #6 Cats lost in Texas to the #11 Longhorns. That was 71 yrs ago circa 1951!
Multiple reports are saying that UK will have 20,000 fans in Oxford, that Cat fans are scattered throughout Memphis, Tupelo, Oxford and every where else in Miss. and are headed to the game!
I think we are going to be shocked at how many UK fans get into this absolutely huge SEC football game!
Blue Gets In!

 

[bigblueinsanity]

Sounds like we'll have 15-20k down there. Curious how many actually make it in. Great showing!

I hope I’m wrong, and I might be. I don’t think people realize how many 20,000 is…and how the heck do they even estimate that to report it.
