It's a Juries la tlemorisl Stadium,

Figures do very somewhat for every
game, V :r tsii, because the num

players, visiting players, ushers,
coaches, band members, security offi
cials and concession workers. ;
In come instances, attendance esti
mates may ran hh. Ycgner said her
ofUce bases its 'estimates using only the
number cf sold and admission tags
assisted. No ens actually counts the
number cf people going through the
gates, she said. -;
Ticket holders can come cmotshe
said. A Coke man could get a cold at
the last minute. There's no way to
account far that"

"with a few hundred missing, It's hard

At other games, attendance figures
could be low.
There's no w ay to account for the
people that sneak in," she said. "I hear
cf about 10 or so from the police, but I
think it's probably closer to two or
three hundred."
Warner said 72.C03 people can be
seated In reserved sections, the
bleachers hold 010 people, and the
wheelchair section hcldj about 140,
Including wheelchair attendants.
Warner said the demand for tie!:et3
exceeds the supply, and that every
game is a sellout .
According to Thomas Simons, as
sistant sports Information director,
Saturday will be the 1 2Sth consecutive
cold-out game. On Oct 1, Nebraska set
a National Collegiate Athletic Associa
tion record when the NilSyracuse
game was the 127th consecutive sell
cut He said home football games have
been sold out since 1C32.
Simons said the reccrd-high attend
ance at Xdemozial Stadium occurred
Nov. 23, 1974, when 7C,CC3 people
watched Nebraska play Oklahoma.
The lowest attendance during the
past 18 years was In 1C37, when C J.7T2
people saw Nebraska lose to Okla
homa, Simons said.
Simons said one reason for the dif
ference in attendance "at these two
seating capacity was C3,CC3. In addi
