There were probably at least a third of the seats empty. Unfortunately it's as much the economy as any other reason. Take a trip to the grocery store - our food bill went from $80-$100 a week to almost double. Then when you get done there, stop for some $4/gallon gas that was $2 about 18 months ago. When you are done with those two stops, not many dollars left for fun, especially if your paycheck is smaller with the FICA going back to 6.2%, healthcare going out of sight
