Shooter's column said 28k tickets sold for this event. Expecting 35k.
Not bad, biggest NDSU Home game ever.
A lot of the potential revenue will be based on how much time and effort Team makers, NDSU Development Foundation and the university put into the event. My understanding is NDSU gets a guarantee to...
That is alumni, what about dependents? Two alumni in my family, but last week I had 9 at the game.
I could care less about the game. I am more concerned about a money making opportunity for the university
All baseball stadiums built before 21st century comfort. Target field is a great place for an event.
I have been to AT and T staduim. Ring of Honor suites. Watched the big screen. Went to US...
Well it has been 30k want season tickets, only 12k get, so there are 18k that are starved for bison football. Plus in looking at the lay out, would one sideline and endzone be right against the...

But there is 18k without season tickets dying to go to bison games. Push Minneapolis folks.
Also when the band wagon starts moving, you going? Hey you going? Oh shit I better go so I don't...
Proportionally one home game $8 million gate is probably the same ration as NDSU at $800k gate as a ratio to overall budget.
You can have it all at Target field. The suite level and clubs can handle all that.
Hey how about this. Give every season ticket holder a Free Seat at the game, still have 30k to sell.
The...
How much to you think this was a trial balloon thrown out by the athletic department to get feedback? I would venture to guess the feedback directly to the university has been useful in determining...
They are giving up a 6-10 million home gate to play a neutral site game knowing they are going to make more is my point. So the argument that NDSU is giving up an home gate and loss revenue is an...

Realize is Alabama is giving up a home game to play this game. They are giving up a 6, 8, 10 million gate to play a neutral site game. That tells me there is money to be made in doing it. ...
Well...
Comparing an NDSU vs [enter cupcake team] to two of the biggest football rivalries in the nation in Harvard/Yale and Lehigh/Lafayette isnt really fair. Leigh and Lafayette is so big I ...
Here's the roadmap to doing this

There are two points of view here.
One- We can't draw 35-40k to a game in the twin ciites. If we can't the brand and popularity isn't as big as some want to think. Then the idea that 30,000...
I don't see what comparing USD in Sioux Falls to a game in Sioux Falls has to do with the argument. That was an USD game, not a bison game.
The other constant argument was only 20-25k went to...
I don't think he is that retarded at all. You mention that St. Johns and Thomas have great Minneapolis Fan Bases. I would argue NDSU might be the second fan base in the cities for college football....
So after we see how the D3 teams do it, get 30,000 for the game, mint coin, see it a great event. We will all jump on the bandwagon.
This is a huge, huge, opportunity and I hope it is explored.
You have a fan base that drops 15 million to go to frisco. 5 million to go to Iowa city. Assumes 1000 per person per game. This is money NDSU is not capturing. A game at NDSU grosses 800k.
...
Isn't the goal to make money and expand the brand?
I know they mentioned it would not be UND. I said if you want to fill the place, play UND. We are the home team, sell tickets to UND fans,...
Yes. Uni would draw. Play them in a year they are not on the conference schedule.
The reality and obviously the powers at be don't have the balls to do it. But play the UND game in Minneapolis. That way you have both alumni bases buying tickets. Make it an EVENT, if at Target...
