That's a lot of butts in the seats... Good job Knoxville... Dan
Awesome.
What will it be like next year with new blood?
Thought it was how many fish went belly up post tournament.
Not nearly as many I wouldn't think.Originally Posted by jimsch

Are you talking about at the launch, That would have been about the 3 day total maybe. I drove by the expo early Saturday morning and the line was was almost half way around the building.
Next year will be the “measuring stick” year.

Every year it just getting bigger and bigger, so much for them coming back here now.. it will probably be held in Knoxville in 2021 now.. hopefully Vegas next year..
Not really shure how they get the totals there's no counting system as far as how many people or tickets are sold because all events are free. Last year in Greenville we had 145000 people. But hey its growing every year
They had turn styles at the entrances into the convention center and weighin
They weren't in the seats.....TB arena only holds about 22K people. 153K is basically the attendance that went through the doors at the Expo. I was there Saturday and from the looks of it they were all there that day.......needless to say it was packed.That's a lot of butts in the seats... Good job Knoxville... Dan

I think they have a good idea of the expo numbers. We were coming up the escalator and they were not letting anyone go down, I guess there were to many people down there because the escalator was working
Great job Knoxville.
Kvd Ike skeet there yesterday's news the new breed of young anglers in bass will do just fine when the next classic here next year. I don't miss any of them now there not the future the young anglers are now.
Job well done Knoxville, glad to be a part of it!
I live here and I'm very proud of how the classic went. I was hoping Knoxville would handle this well. The take off crowd apparently was packed each morning. I never went down there, I have a place down river I watched from the bank. Hope every one that came was treated well by us Tn people. Hope you have safe travels home, and come again.
it will go by the way of NASCAR if they are not careful, hard to be a fan with new talent every year and the old ones gone, it takes a few years to build a fan base , as for the new anglers , it will take a few years to even put a face with thier name , I like the old veterans myself, Not really a fan of the MLF format either , MLF has no membership , which is what made BASS what it is , and the magazine , not to mention the Classic and trade show, without that MLF has limitations I think

The pro's they left B.A.S.S was because of greed they don't care about fans they want money I for won't miss the pro's that left I be a B.A.S.S fan with the new group of pro anglers fishing now.
