XFL Attendance: Roughnecks fans pack TDECU Stadium with over 19k at the game
The Houston Roughnecks and PJ Walker have been playing lights out but this week they met their match. The Seattle Dragons came to play.
The Dragons have been going back and forth all game with the Roughnecks putting up points. It was not until 3 minutes left in the game before PJ Walker and Cam Phillips scored a touchdown. They went up 32-23 with just 3:28 remaining in the game.
The Roughnecks fans have been loud all game. In week 2, the Houston Roughnecks had 17,103 in attendance. They said in the fourth quarter this was the largest attendance they have ever had.
With 1:58 left in the game, the Roughnecks stripped Dragons QB BJ Daniels and DeMarquis Gates recovered the ball. Gates was ejected for throwing a punch according to the refs.
According to Mike Mitchell, there were 19,773 fans in attendance!
NFL Scouts from Seattle were at the game to watch PJ Walker. The crazy thing is the game ended with PJ Walker kneeling the ball but there was still two seconds left on the clock. The teams ran off the field and the officiating supervisor called it.
