Ticket Prices

Ched:
The sellout of the NO Bowl is unlikely. The sellout of the FAU SECTION/ALLOTMENT of tickets is more likley. That's what I was referring to. FAU only gets certain # of tix to sell and they get the proceeds. Ticekts everywhere else go to NO Bowl.

Re: Ticket Prices

FAU can't request more tickets after they reach their allotment?  I'm sure they could.  Didn't USF request and get more for our game here?

It seems like they would want more and more people there so if we wanted more tickets, the Bowl commitee would be happy to allow that.

Thanks guys. That settles it…I'm buying them no mater what.

Re: Ticket Prices

I don't know if FAU can ask for more. If FAU asks for more, NO Bowl is losing ticket money. USF might have asked FAU for more tickets, but that's FAU Lockhart Stadium and not NCAA post-season play

Re: Ticket Prices

I don't think everyone outside of Memphis and Florida Atlantic will really be beating down the doors to get in this game.  If FAU wanted more tickets, NO Bowl people would be crazy not to allow that.

Supply meets demand.  USF asked for more than there allotted tickets, and they got more.

Re: Ticket Prices

I think the difference is we played them at Lockhart. Had we played USF at Dolphins Stadium we would have given them as many tickets as they wanted. I find it hard to believe that if we ask for say 3K seats and we sell those out and we ask for more they are going to say sorry you already used your allotment.  It looks better for the school if we originally ask for a lower amount then sell them out and ask for more, rather then look like fools again like we did with the UF tickets and end up sending back 3,000 tickets

My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!

Re: Ticket Prices

so the tickets have been given to fau right? so why cant they at least be 10 off or $30.  They would make a profit no matter what!

Re: Ticket Prices

On hutton's blog, he made an interesting point about the ticket sales.  If we can sell all of our 5100 tickets alloted ($40 tix from the school), it could help make us look more attractive for future bowl games as possible at-large position since we would have a record of selling all of our tickets (Bowls seem to like that ;))

Re: Ticket Prices

Just read today that tickets won't be mailed until the 14th. That makes me worry a bit. It could be a close call for people leaving a few days early for the game. I really figured that tickets would be mailed at the time of purchase but since they are giving the best seats to donors and season ticket holders they are waiting to mail all tickets until the 14th. I am going to give a call tomorrow to find out what the deal is.

Why not just do the "Will Call" thing, because at least you don't have to worry about the tix not arriving on time.
