the crowd was well over 2800, they have no way to come up with an accurate count of the fans....Drew Crawford is the man!!!!!!!

Yeah, it was well over 2,800 for people coming in and out but it wasn't well over 2,800 people that actually came and watched the whole game.
Whatever it was it was about as packed as it can get at Harbin. Its true that they can't really accurately measure the attendance.

The record on campus was 9,002 at Kehoe Field in 1965.
Now that must have been a crowd!

That must have been amazing, it's hard to imagine that many people up on Kehoe for a Georgetown Football game.
Anybody have that one on tape? hahahaha

I was there in '65. Must have been Tony Lauringer at QB and my good friend Bernard Alphonse Marie ("Dick", aka Aruba) Van Ogtrop, who did the punting. I have a hard time of imagining why GU doesn't sell out every game these days. The first intercollegiate game since '51 was in '64, because the '63 game was called, because of JFK's death.

Kehoe fit a lot more people in the stands before they built Yates and created a new Kehoe on top. For those younguns like myself who never saw the old field (probably most of us on the board, apart from the Nevada and the other sages among us), the Exorcist provides at least one scene to get the idea.
