We had a similar deal for UCLA. Who was not our super bowl. Which was a sell out.

Great promotions . . . can't believe the ku football super fans haven't already moved this one to SRO status.

Well, the track kind of keeps you away from the action, in all fairness.
I always felt that way back in high school. The track kind of acted as a buffer between the players and fans.
I guess Memorial Stadium is really no different from every other like high school stadium. Except most of them aren't nice enough to put their Trinitrons on file cabinets.

Hey bros, if anyone is still looking for tickets enter the promotional code "chamber" in the KU AD website. Gives you tier 2 tickets (90 dollar FV) for 60.

Talked to a friend yesterday. He had more than one person offering him free tickets to the game on Thursday. Apparently those KU fans had bought season tickets and had determined it wasn't worth going to the game after all (or pretty much any game from here on out).

Tonight? Don't think that its any big secret that I hate morons. There are really good reasons that the rest of humanity don't put their names on message board posts. The irony is that the dude likely has awful social anxiety.

I'm convinced it's going to be an attendance of 46k max. About 20% of which, are KSU cats fans.

Many of them bought their tickets through various outlets Beems . . . it's not like they got to walk into somebody's offices and pick up a stack for free.
There's a difference . . . too bad you can never seem to understand that.

Someone initially bought the tickets and then gave them away for free. The tickets are being redistributed... KU's athletic department isn't giving away free tickets. Surprised you don't understand that.

so someone bought the tickets with the intention of reselling for a profit, or because they felt like rough ridin' santa himself by giving away free tickets?

Go to your local 7/11 and you'll find some.

But seriously I've seen a stack and they weren't donated by a nice young chap who wanted people to enjoy the full college football experience. They were labeled as "Tickets not sold for KU/KSU matchup".

How many Nebraska fans would you guys say were at the game last Thursday? 10,000 or so?

5,500
There was a lot no doubt, but looked worse than what it was. Red sticks out like a sore thumb in a stadium of purple. 10-15% seems right.

My guess is there will be more K-State fans at the KU game than there were NU fans at the K-State game.

IFFF someone bought them, and you have no way of confirming that anyone did. They bought them for pennies on the dollar. Kind of sad if that's the case . . . K-State being ku's super bowl and all.

You don't have any way of confirming that KU's athletic department just gave the tickets away for free, either. Seems a lot more likely to me that someone bought them in quantity and decided to get rid of the ones that they couldn't sell at the last minute.
-
Well we have lots of past information to go by, like when Lew passes out thousands of extra FREE tickets for the first home game . . . so don't act like something like handing out free tickets is unheard of at ku.
The bottom line is . . . really surprised that the ku football super fans haven't locked down all the tickets.

What do you think is more likely? That someone bought a whole bunch of tickets and decided to just give them away, or the KU athletic department decided to throw some free, unsold tickets around to try and get some asses in the seats? I know, right now we can't confirm KU is giving them away any more than you can confirm your theory, but which of those scenarios is the more likely??
-

Even if there were, and there weren't, those seats were sold at $75 a pop. That doesn't include the countless $5.00 lemonades, $4.00 sodas, and $20.00 trips to the concession stand that they bought.
If that were the case, and 10K Nebraska fans did buy tickets, the estimated revenue from their attendence alone would be roughly $750K dollards and probably at least $50-100K more in parking and concessions.
And that's face value. If you took scalped values (which the AD doesn't see the margin), it would be way over a million.
In this scenario, Nebraska fans probably made, roughly, an $800K-$1M donation on their way out of Manhattan. I will venture to guess, since KU is essentially giving tickets away, that KSU fans, who will most definitely exceed 10K fans, won't even come close to dropping that much money.
Therefore, when we overrun your stadium, we do it at a discount. When NU fans invaded ours, we made them pay for it.
-
Aren't we required to give NU an allotment? It's not like a KSU fan pulled a Santa Clause and gave the NEbraska fans, who all sat in the same sections, a bunch of free tickets.
-
Incred-a-Bowl in Overland Park has a bowling league that you get KU football SEASON tickets for being in.

I'll only go the game in Lawrence if I can get a ticket to the Gridiron Club. :users:

The "free" tickets at the beginning of the season are complimentary tickets that are included with the student sports package.

Are there more options to get free tickets to ku football games than there are to buy them? Looks that way.
-

Well, they definitely exceeded their allotment. My guess is a bunch of them camped out and bought single game tickets or scalped them one way or another.
Regardless, every seat in that stadium was sold out, red or purple. Someone paid $75 to sit in a seat or on a hill.
For the announced attendance of 51,115, if you take that times $75, KSU made $3,833,625 from gate receipts alone. That doesn't include parking or concessions. If I were a betting man, KSU made over $4 million that night, alone.
-
K-State took 30,000+ fans to ku's stadium back in 2002. Even now, K-State will still take 8,000+ fans. There were only about 3,000 ku fans in Manhattan last year. Pretty crazy the difference between the two fan bases.
-
Someone paid $75 to sit in a seat or on a hill.
a friend I work with paid that for the hill seat. Left at the beginning of the 3rd (when it was over).
-
Again, really is surprising to see so many "complimentary" tickets given ku football super fan status.
-
fact of the matter still not a sell out 28 hours from game time
-
fact of the matter still not a sell out 28 hours from game time
It probably won't be, either.
A lot of KU fans don't want to see them lose to KSU, and a lot of KSU fans don't want to be there to watch KU win.
Neither side thinks they're going to win, so both fan bases are avoiding a very uncomfortable situation. Especially since it's on a Thursday night.
This is what happens when both teams get demolished the game preceding this one.

At work today, all the KU fans at lunch were wondering whether they would lose by 3 or 4 touchdowns.
-
One of my co-workers, played at ku but went on to Michigan, asked me for 60 points to bet.
Why do they hate their team so much? Seems like they aren't that bad and definitely doing things the right way. What's not to be proud of?
-
College buddy of mine is a social worker in Lawrence. Just called and told me ku athletics dropped off close to a thousand tickets on the door steps of the local soup kitchens and now they're just blowing around on the streets and the vagrants are using them to start fires in trash cans. It's pretty cold and windy today.

Yes, but I used about 5 of them to wipe off my face after the delicious cinammon roll.

Have you tried those crazy looking muffins with bacon on top? I look at them everyday, get my mind blown, and lose the nerve to order them.

Is there a coupon on the back...maybe that'd be worth the "price of admission" which is obviously FREE!

I heard a rumor that thousands of Nebraska fans flooded Old Balls Family Stadium last week. Also heard that they beat a kid with a stick and left him lying dead in a ditch.

Difference is, nubb fans PAID for their tickets...face value or higher. Good Lord beems, we've been over this before.
