Approximatley, How Many Unt Football Games Have

risinggreen · June 19, 2007

My first game was in '77, so that means there have been around 150 home game possibilities over the past 30 or so years. I've definitely attended over half the home games and quite a few road games, so I'll guesstimate and say just under one hundred.

Somwhere around 70 - 80

Away games to UT, A&M, TCU, SMU, K-State, Tech, Akron & No Bowl.

More than I can count (or remember for that matter). I'd have to put the number at over 100.

Trying to figure this out...20 seasons x 5 home games = 100 + ~10 away games = 110 + 4 NOBowls - ~4 games for work and skipping town = 110.

I'd say just over 100.

It's been years since I've been able to go to a home game, but from '93-'99, I don't think I missed more than 2 home games. That, plus away games and 1 NO Bowl, I imagine somewhere around 45 games.

That sounds just like my history as well. I worked for the athletic department for the 1993 season (believe there was a regime change after that, b/c I lost my job), and saw every home game from the press box. That got me started, and I do not believe I missed too many after that, but 45 games sounds about right to me. My last home game was the (now infamous) 2006 FAU vs. NT "black jersey" game. Not the best NT game I have ever witnessed, I must say...

I've only been to 12 games. I went to the Baylor game at Floyd Casey in '99. After that, I forgot about UNT football until watching the 2004 mud bowl and NO bowl on TV. I went to all 5 home games in 2005 and all 5 in 2006 plus the Texas game.

KingDL1 · June 19, 2007

I am in the 50 game range give or take.

DeepGreen · June 19, 2007

Beginning my Freshman year in 1964 and applying the x-factor curve for Dickey Ball, I'd say about 5,852 games.

Around 220-240 home games with another 20 or so road games and all 4 New Orleans Bowls. Started coming in 1958 at age 12 to see Abner Haynes play. Made every home game as a student 1965-1969, and season ticket holder every year since graduation. I've seen all the UT,SMU,TCU games in that span home and away and other various road games including the first in our return to 1-A @ Missouri

First game at old Eagle Stadium in 1947 and a few since :rolleyes:

meangreenfreak · June 19, 2007

I have not missed an NT home game since the 1990 home opener. I wish I could say the same about the road games. I have been to NO 4 times.

MCMLXXX · June 19, 2007

I have attended about 100 games over the years and became a season ticket holder with the move back to D1. Have attended all four New Orleans Bowls and games at UT, OU, A$M, Baylor, TCU, and Colorado. I also took the bus trip to the infamous ULM loss back in 2001.

Billions and Billions.... Oh wait...that is the number of stars in the sky.

Did not count the number of games. I have been to a lot of them. Exact number: I don't know. Makes my head hurt thinking such things.

McK · June 20, 2007

Though I have lived within 40 miles of Denton for 40+ years, and have always wanted a 'local' team to win, I am a relative newcomer to actually attending the games (and did not attend UNT). I think the number is 9, though there may be one or 2 I can't recall specifically. That includes the NO Bowls of '03 and '04.

Hands down the best moment of any of these games (or rather post games) was being in the alcohol, party and debautery capital of the U.S....New Orleans...in 2002 following our win over Cincinati and actually being responsible for the closing of Bourbon St. UNT shut down Bourbon Street. Theres something I doubt any other school can claim. Few things are more intimidating than being a hammered 20 year old, walking around a foreign city and being yelled out by mounted police officers...and giving them a good-strong CAW_CAW

MeanGreenBuzz · June 20, 2007

I've been to 30 something UNT football games over the past few years but the best was by far when I went to the 2003 NO Bowl. Granted I don't remember much of the after party but what I do remember was fun.

Onlying being around since 1999 I can't argue the NO Bowl win in 2002 was by far my favorite memory of a game followed by the big win over Baylor in 2003 and then smu last year.

That's a lot of Mean Green football there! I'm impressed.

GoMeanGreen1999 · June 20, 2007

I've been a season ticket holder for about 25 years. And I've typically gone to one or two "big" road games per year. Plus 4 New Orleans Bowls. I would guess 125 or 130. Shamefully, I've never been to a conference game on the road, with the exception of games at UTA when we both were in the Southland.
Oh, and I'm going this year too.

You never went to a game at SFA - that was pretty cool stadium, though small. This is great question, but I have no idea how many. I have been going to the home games every season since I was 5 and I am 33 now. Throw in 5 or so road games I guess it would be over 100.
