[Bqqkie Pimp]

If you see these gay-ass personalized plates near Amon G Carter Stadium on Saturday, you can ask BillupsFrog in person for a discount on his/her overpriced tickets...

weird post.


BTW, there are now 841 for sale on StubHub. The cheapest is a pair together for $50 of actual seats in row U of 230. If you need a pair, pounce on these because they probably won't be there for long.

fyi

Just picked up a pair for $95 a piece on Stubhub, section 118, row g.  s/b corner endzone just below the main KState seats.  Would have like seats more in the middle of the stadium, but also cool to be with the main KSTATE group.  And as mentioned above, I bet tix will be even cheaper tomorrow, but just liked the seats and pulled the trigger now have piece of mind.

now just need to figure out where to park.

Just rent a rocketpack and you will be in good shape.

Anyone know how many KSU fans are expected to be at the game?

As far as parking goes, read my post a bit earlier. Also, the official visitor sections are in the upper deck, Phil. Though there will be tons of EMAWs scattered throughout, for sure.

TCU fan here. There has been some pretty good advice here on the parking situation, but thought I would give you a few more options.

There is a Paschall High School at the corner of Berry st. and Forest Park that is about a mile away from the stadium.  I think parking is like 5 or 10 dollars.  They provide a shuttle that lets off directly in front of the stadium and another shuttle that will take you back after the game. 

The baseball lot at the corner of Bellaire Dr. W and Bellaire Dr. N is $10 and fills up pretty quickly.  I usually tailgate in this lot, and there has been a lot of visiting fans in this area tailgating and mixing it up with TCU fans this year.  Not that far of a walk to the stadium from here (.25-.5 mile walk). 

The University Christian Church at the corner of Canty and University usually has spots for about $20.  This is on the edge of campus and a close walk to the stadium.

If you are a cheapskate like me, you can park in pretty much any of the neighborhood streets around campus.  If the weather is not that bad I will park on the East side of campus just passed the business school on Sandage or Merida and walk through the entirety of campus.  If you want to save money, and do not mind a .5-1 mile walk, this is not a bad choice at all.

There is a "young" alumni parking lot (lot 4) for tailgating which is where the big tailgate parties for college age through early 30s.

Anyway, hope you guys have a great trip.

What do you think the chances are of buying tickets for $60ish on game day for anything that isn't GA or SRO?  Thanks.

I would say around 25-50%. It really all depends how many fans KState brings. 

I doubt you will get any seats in the bottom deck (except possibly in the north endzone) as one side is pretty much all students, the other side is all donor seats, and the other endzone is GA.  There are usually quite a few of the upper deck seats being sold.  The best place to usually find "scalpers" is along Cantey between Univesity and Stadium and along Stadium between Canty and Berry.  Those seem to be the places with the most "scalpers" as opposed to fans just looking to unload tickets. 

You have to remember that this is the highest ranked team coming to play in Fort Worth since 1970.  TCU fans are really excited because this is the biggest home game in decades (per the rankings) and KState fans are excited because KSU is on the way to an undefeated season.  I would normally say you could find tickets at this range, but I would say odds are against finding any at that price. 

What do I know though.  Let me know if you have any questions.

I kinda take for granted how much more super bowly a game must be against us for TCU or Coal Aggie. 

[Froggy]

Yeah, TCU is in the middle of a stretch of games against OSU, WVU, KSU, UT, and OU.  TCU fans used to be excited to play one team of that caliber in a season and now we are playing 5 in a row.  TCU fans are excited to be bowl eligible at this point, so anything else this season is gravy.  Knocking off a KSU, UT, or OU in our opening season of the Big XII would be huge for the perception of our program.  Most fans expected the OU game to be the best home game of the season.  Now that it is KSU, the fans are psyched for this game.

Are you guys going to like yell "AHHHHHHOOHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!  " on third down? 

[3maw]

i really take for granted our purple. i mean, i never had to worry about wearing the other teams colors. now i'm not so  that toad fans will heckle us and say mean things to us like "we're excited to play you" or "we're gonna give you our all!" as easily as other places.

[Trim]

the perception of our program

This is something we at goEMAW care about a great deal as well.

I, for one, can't wait to squash those Grapes.

Unfortunately, my answer to that question is... possibly.  We have an old and notoriously quite crowd, so do not be too surprised when it is not very loud despite it being a big game.

I was more saying that in terms ticket prices staying a little higher than normal.

[Trim]

Sounds like I'm gonna run roughshod over these losers.

[Emo EMAW]

Well at least you're not Texas where it's uncool to yell.

You are right; we are not Texas.

However, yelling is not very cool to most of out fans.

Froggy, how big is the TCU student section?  I

[SkinnyBenny]

Their entire enrollment is smaller than our student section.

The entire student body is 9K.  Every student gets season tickets as part of tuition, so in theory it should be around 9K.  However, the school anticipates some people not going, so i would say it is about 6K-7K.

I want to say there are 5,500 seats first come first serve. Any others get in but have to stand. My only disagreement is I think the atmosphere will be more like Utah 2009 minus college gameday and a slightly smaller crowd. I think the crowd will be amped and The Carter rocking.

I think we'll pack in 48k and it will look and sound like 60k.
