Individual tickets went on sale this week and three games already sold out. Rutgers, Syracuse and the new Cards. UCONN fans will be looking forward to both Cuse and Cards games. USF is also going fast and should be gone in a couple of weeks. We are still working on Liberty and Buffalo. Total season tickets sold this year is 29,000. I am hoping UCONN will sell out rest of the games this year so we can expand the stadium to 55K soon.

How are rest of the BE doing with ticket sales?

great news!!

My understanding is that the UL and VPI games are already gone, with Pitt nearly gone. It may be sold out by now.

Any WVU guys w/ season ticket sales info? I know that the endzone season ticket packages are sold out.

How can you sell out individual games before all the season tickets are sold?

Not sure. Single tickets went on sale this morning and people gobbled them up real quick. I am pretty sure for CUSE game the demand will be well over 55K if we had a bigger stadium. It looks like UCONN vs. Cuse will be a nice BE rivalry once we win a few games. I know Cuse fans are jacked for this game.

Maybe UCONN office is holding up some tickets for season ticket holders? Not sure whats going on but you cant buy games for those games off Ticketmaster. Phones were ringing off the hook since 10:00AM this morning at UCONN ticket office.

Its nice to have games sold out months ahead. Last year, we sold out only a few weeks ahead but we are well ahead of schedule this year.

Hows going at UL? I hope all the games will sell out too.

Syracuse has about 25,000 seasons sold so far. It was a little lower than I stated about a week ago. The students should add about 3-4,000 a week ot two when they get back to campus. I think we'll hit 30k in seasons for both groups combined by kickoff.

I expect several games in the low/mid 40s but won't predict a sellout yet.

Cuse expects to send a minimum of 5,000 to UConn--probably would send 10k+ if tix available.

Those Sold Out numbers are a little misleading, as they don't include road team allotments or student tickets.

You guys are packing the house for Rutgers, good to see. I really can't wait to finally get back at you guys for the past couple years, its going to be very vindicating. It'll also be nice to get back at you for Geno too. We'll just have to see what happens in a few weeks.

i'm not sure - all i know is that the WVU ticket office says that individual games are sold out for VPI and UL (and Pitt), but that season tickets remain. Perhaps they let season ticket sales go until a certain point, then release some seats for individual games if season tix don't sell out? Not sure how that works, exactly.

I believe there are still some season tickets left and they will try to sell it for UCONN. If they dont sell, they will be released for single or game pack sale. So far, pretty much all the games except for Buffalo is not sold out. All other UCONN games are sold out within a week (USF game has 3 tickets left as of today). I am sure pretty we will have a close to full sell out season. I think this is good since BE now has another team with great fan support.

The Buffalo game is on a Thursday night before the long Laboy Day weekend. I'll be very impressed if that game completely sells out. I was even impressed we sold out the Liberty(1AA) game.
