how much dough

[east louis]

ok,how much did the tyler crew take home from 5A lamar/allen final? attendance was announced 48,379--tx guys got it good...

[fencewire]

Not sure but let's assume 10$ per ticket.  There are a lot of folks there that don't pay, bands, cheerleaders, coaches in the stands, school faculty, etc...   Anyway at 10$ per ticket.

48379 * 10 = 483790
483790 - 20000 = 463790
463790/5000 = 92.75
92.75 * 20 = 1855

1855 + 125 = $1980. Before travel, etc..

Of course there is broad acceptance that nobody actually does the calculations correctly or even tries.

Increase that by 1/3.  I went Friday night and they were charging $15 a ticket.  But, you also have to take into account people that paid and stayed for multiple games and the split with those officials.  There was 40,000 for the Katy game at 4 oclock -- so you have to assume that most of the crowd stayed.

I worked one last year and got a check for $853. I believe the attendance was 43K and change.

2009 - Aledo vs. Stephenville second round playoff game at the brand new Cowboy Stadium brought a check of $742 each for our five man crew. they estimated 35K in attendance.

I was the H in this game you speak of. We made $1250 for working the game.

You may be right HOULJ but I'm not sure how it works with Championship games. Most of that 49,000+ in attendance had watched the 2 previous games also. So they didn't all pay to just watch our game. Not sure how its broken down from there...

[HOULJ]

I am pretty sure that all of the games played on that weekend are divided between all of the crews that work that weekend.

[Ump62]

Gate is counted each day and each crew for that day is paid the same.
So, this year on Thursday there will be 4 games/4 crews. Attendance will be totaled and divided by 4 for an average gate. All 4 crews will be paid the same. Same method for Friday and Saturday.
