    Ticket Sales

    Wondering if anyone has heard if we are close to a packed house?
    i got my ticket monday and the lady said sales were up from past weeks,
    but just wondering if anyone has any updated information on how close we are to a sellout?
    .
    .
    Outside a chilly 34 degrees..
    wind from the southeast at 7 miles an hour...
    inside.. 72 degrees.. no wind......
    WELCOME TO THE DOME

    I think we are a long ways from a sellout still. I thought I heard from someone that they have sold around 8,000 as of last night? But I might have heard them wrong?

      Doubt it.
      Up from the past few weeks perhaps, but not nearly the volume of ticket sales that there were last year.

      I'm guessing 12K, maybe 13K. Though hopefully I'm wrong and there is more.

        The best way to buy tickets is walk up to the ticket counter NE entrance. That way you don't have to pay that dang fee to fricketmaster

          I would be ok with 13K....if its below 10K....just ridiculous for a community of 120K. Good thing UNI never won the bid to host the Championship game over Chatty. Probably 400 locals would show up. Pathetic.

            I'm guess the NI publishes one last time for the semester either today or tomorrow. I don't think it would be inappropriate for that paper to give UNI's student body the so-called what-for.

              You can't "call out" the students, dont ya know? First, you will piss off the ones that actually do attend the games and second, you will damage the self esteem of those that don't...which in turn will cause them to resist showing up even more

                    That's the part that baffles me. We set a record on homecoming for most students to attend an athletic event EVER. (I think it was over 4,000) and now we're under a 1,000. I'll be there and I'm bringing 2 other students that haven't been to a game this year!

                        I tend to agree. Even the people who haven't felt the effects of the recession are scared.

                          But at the same time you make room for things that are important to you.

                          I lost my job in this financial mess in October and am working retail through the Christmas season. UNI football is important enough to my wife and I that we will be in attendance Saturday afternoon. Its about what is important....

                            Or maybe just don't let Griff do it, although it seems he is the only one to publicly have the balls to do it.
