Up to 7481 now......might even have a chance at 10,000 if this pace keeps up.......

Just perhaps if there is the anticipated announcement of the final home game tonight on the sports the number will jump a bit.
if that is the reason to get season tickets, there is something wrong with that person.
SDSU, SIU at home are why you should get season tickets alone!
Schedule for out for NEXT year says WDAYQuote:

That is my opinion and I will stick with it.
Sources tell Izzo that the contract is out for Morgan State, but has not yet been signed. Hammer this morning said maybe by Friday was the word from Gene Taylor.Quote:

10,000 season tickets, now that is very impressive.Quote:

What is UNI at for season ticket holders?Quote:

Yeah...I think last year was up to about 4,000 - 4,500 if I remember right(??). Whatever it is, I can guarantee you that it is far short of 10,000. We do rely heavily on walk-ups / week of game sales. In fact, until just the past 7 years or so most of the fans would walk up at about 10 minutes to kick to buy tickets...no real tailgating atmosphere at all. It was just a matter of which really good seat you would get. :smh: The tailgating has improved and so have the season tix...very direct correlation. I didn't make it to Fargo last year, but I hear you guys do it right up there. I will circle the date for next year's game for sure.Quote:

That leaves about 500 more that could be added to any of the above possiblities after being made available for opponents fans.Quote:

Anybody know if the NDSU Alumni Association, Teammakers or some other campus department will ever set up a website for those looking to sell, donate, or buy single game tickets?
Would be nice to encourage season ticket holders that don't plan to attend a game do something with them. If given to some volunteer organization great, and if the seller doesn't want money the tickets could be sold and profits given to teammakers.
The privaliged types who leave big blue gaps in the seating at mid field just because they don't care to go to a game piss me off. Do something with those tickets people!
Good pointQuote:

I agree the limit on season tickets is likely about 12,000 (still leaves 2,000 for single game purchase). That would fill the east and west sides and more than half way up in the endzones. I say move the visitors section to the top of the endzone if this ever happens.Quote:

approx. 3,800 tickets for students = 1,487 tickets left.
Then take away 550 visitors tickets and you get
937 single game tix available for each game, or 5,622 total for a season.
Also, Josh Hemmingway told me personally that 14,000 is our max.
Ahhhh, but where in your records do you account for Lakes? He is not a mere ticketholder. He does not travel alone, but has an entourage. And they all have groupies. And then there is the press to consider. Oh Bisonator, you have traveled down a slippery slope*Quote:

I am not sure how it works but a lot of sports franchises will oversell an event based on a % of no shows they usually have. These tickets are good for any open seat that can be found. It is a way of ensuring that seats within the sitelines of the camera are full.
I guess the Yankees didn't try this last season.Quote:
