While I get the lower attendance due to the weather, I also think a lot of people are missing out.
It's not cheap to get into BDS, on any other day... A-Day is the type of event you can take your entire family, see the team, see the stadium, watch Saban roam the sidelines, all of that, and on the cheap. I understand why people aren't traveling from out of state for A-Day, but for people that live in the area? It's a nice experience and it's a low pressure environment. Hopefully they can figure out how to better promote the event better, because honestly at times I've found it to be better experience than some of the games. They've had Heisman trophies on display, they've let you go onto the field, I feel like the people who complain about high costs of other games are really missing out on the chance for a nice, and cheap experience.
Unless something changes gone are the days of A-Day being a recruiting tool, but oh well I guess players aren't the only ones being complacent.
