Not to quibble but they average over 20k and it has been going up. Of course big games like Stanford and others break the 30k barrier. In a town that has pretty much perfect weather, the beach, mountains, tons of hiking and mountain bike trails, great nightlife scene for all types of people, etc I am amazed they get as many as they do. The new stadium will fit 35K which is 4k short of the attendance for the Boise St. game.
SDSU football attendance rises for third straight year, reaching highest mark in two decades
Five years ago, San Diego State football coach Rocky Long pointed to the crowds at Viejas Arena for SDSU basketball games and imagined a growing number of fans finding their way to football games as well.

That's good, I didn't look anything up. I was going off of what it said on the local talk radio here in Boise. They should still draw better. The excuse of too much to do is just an excuse if you ask me. Boise has everything you listed except a beach. Either you want to support the team or you don't. It is the same pretty much over all of California for sporting events. They will show up for the big games, if the team is good, but otherwise they just don't care.
I agree to a point, weather does effect people's decisions about going to games. Also up until just a couple years ago it was all about the Chargers. It is not like BSU is lighting it up in attendance with a 31k average.
Not just a Boise State problem: College football attendance has largest drop since 1983
The Broncos saw a dip of 9.2 percent in per-game attendance, while across college football, it was down 3.23 percent. However, the Mountain West average was up, one of just two conferences to do so.

Yeah I know BSU attendance is down. The problem is TV. Basically all of BSU's home games start at 8:15 pm MT for TV. The games get over at midnight. That is why I never go. I live 50 minutes away from the stadium when traffic is light. If I am lucky I am home at 2 AM. I am not going to do that. If the games started even a couple of hours sooner like at 6:15 they would draw 5K more. I know I would go to a couple year. It is a good atmosphere and the games are usually good.
That makes more sense than the other reasoning.
I tore mine once then started shaving as a precautionary measure. Good call. Haven’t torn one since.
Manscaping can resolve a myriad of problems.
It’s the only way I can wear Levi’s 505’s.
