7k attendance would have not changed if it were 70 and clear. History shows us that.
Here is a provident idea for you just to show I am not myopic...........When televising a Zip football game, move the cameras to visiting side so it at least looks like there are people there. If that is not an option - move the fans, band, and team to the other side of the field so the cameras see the 7k. There are no differences in the sidelines.
