Evidently this site has not been updated this year because the attendance for the LT/Ryan SC game was announced at 37K+, Steele/Guyer was 39K+, and I believe ET/Pearland was well over 40K. Even those numbers are jacked up and waaaay short because they stopped counting for the 1st game (LT/Ryan) when the 3rd qtr ended as they did for the next two. There were many Steele and Guyer fans that showed up in the 4th qtr for our game and many Ryan and LT fans that stayed and watched us play. Add to that a bunch of ET & Pearland people that got there during our 4th quarter and I'd bet that there was 60K+ at the end of the Steele game and start of the 5a D1 game.
Here's the numbers from the site you posted the link on:
Texas High School Football Playoff Games
Attendance is not an official statistic kept at Texas high school football playoff games, so state records are incomplete.

Aledo's Jonathan Gray will most certainly end up at worst #2 on this list as he us at over 7K right now! If they go 16 games again and he stays healthy, I can see him going over 3K this year for sure. Kid is a beast!
Here's the existing list as posted:
