There are times where we burn two passes a game simply due to carpooling. There are times where all passes are used and times where they aren't. Unfortunately, the usage of passes depends on many factors, and is typically a last minute decision. I know I am not the only one in that position as friends of mine who have passes will hitch a ride with others.

As Clayton said, they aren't filling it to capacity, but they have to sell passes anticipating that every single pass will be used every game. Even in that case, spots in A lot have been lost due to construction. The number of passes are sold as if every game was a rivalry game, not a buy game from the SWAC. If the guys in the lot twiddling their thumbs are counting empty spots each game, then they can be used to capacity in future seasons.
Due to work conflicts, my kids have arrived at games 5, 6, 7 minutes in. As recently as the last two VCU games during our NCAA runs. There were DOZENS of slots open in C and D lot. Just spend the '18-'19 season assessing the situation. 3-4 interns and a couple of golf carts to scan the lots close to halftime of each game, be it a buy game or primo A10 game or when Duke or UK visit!
