Usually at this point in the week there are some tweets from the athletic office or from D. Scott Fritchen that say something along the lines of "Only 1200 tickets remain to Saturday's game against...get tickets now!"

I haven't seen that this week. It would be a real bummer if we fail to sellout the most anticipated home game since Neb. last season, after selling out EKU and Kent.

K-State notes: Few tickets left for Baylor

Nearing a sellout

Fewer than 3,000 tickets remain for Saturday’s 2:30 p.m. home game against No. 15 Baylor. Bowl and sideline level tickets are available for $55. Reserved view tickets are available for $35.

•K-State’s defense is currently ranked sixth nationally after allowing 411 yards and 24 points to Miami. The Wildcats, who entered last weekend ranked first, are allowing an average of 164 yards and 10.3 points.

•Snyder said offensive lineman Shaun Simon, who opened the season as K-State’s starting center, may be available to play in the coming weeks. Simon suffered an injury midway through the Wildcats’ first game against Eastern Kentucky and hasn’t played since.

yeah, i never understood how we sell out OOC games so easily, but struggle in big 12 play.

must be the increase in ticket price. we aren't all lawyers here! (shot at dlew12)

Some of the tickets left have to be from Baylor's allotment. There's no way they sold all their tickets.

Well they are 55 bucks compared to like half that for OOC games right? I get season tickets so I guess I don't really know, but I think that's a big part of it to the "common fan"

it is the reason. they had ten dollar tickets for the first game and four paks of tickets for 75 for the second. that means that a family of four could've went to both of the first two games for less than half of what it would cost them to go to the baylor game. this isn't hard to figure out fellas.

Kinda thinking I should give Luke-KSU my tickets to the Mizzou game I'm missing. :(

Someone give Luke's poor ass some extra tickets for Pete's sake! Also, hope Simon is back and plays well.

I am not pro-simon. We have had better offense the 2 games without him. I say why juggle variables.

jtksu · « **Reply #15 on:** September 29, 2011, 01:51:12 PM »

Simon is our starting center, which means he is better than our other centers. Dude had a bunch of offers from legit programs. The other options are walk-on type dudes. I would rather have the 335 lb badass than the 295 pound kid from Buttfuck, KS.

Winters · « **Reply #16 on:** September 29, 2011, 01:54:56 PM »

What if we were to sellout all games this year? Would be pretty cool.

puniraptor · « **Reply #17 on:** September 29, 2011, 01:58:48 PM »

crap, I didn't know he was from Buttfuck. What a shithole. Simon it is

I gotta say I really appreciate CK taking time out of his busy schedule to call people in order to ensure people show up. Shows he is committed to winning here at K-State.

Too lazy to drive down for the game. Johnson county is pretty far away.
