Anyone have insight into how many tickets have been sold for Saturday? Any predictions for attendance? I’ll be there with 2 others!

Me, too, but I bet there will be more sold than actual butts in the seats.

You can go to the ticket site and click on different sections of the stadium to see which Seats are available. After clicking around a little it Looks to me like only about a 1000 seats are still available (total guess).

17k would be my guess

I have a feeling they still have the season tickets blocked off and haven't updated what didn't get sold.. unfortunately, I expect that more show as available on Thursday once that has been updated.

Looks like all tickets that weren't claimed by season ticket holders have now been released. Still no sign of club seat or parking option online.

The upper east side outside of the middle three sections is 80% available.

Other sections are 30% available.

Hope the students show up.

Embarrassing for our fan base if we don't improve this in the next few days.

I think one thing to bear in mind is if all tickets sold are counted, and comparing attendance numbers to the regular season, some season ticket holders may not purchase all of their tickets. I have multiple tickets and while I purchased all of them this year, I only purchased a couple of them last year. I’m sure there are also some corporate season ticket holders who didn’t get all of their allotment.

Guy at work just called to check on our Club seat order. They are just going through them now and won't know what is left over until at least tomorrow afternoon or maybe Friday.

I called this morning as well and they said tomorrow AM at the latest (which I think is an extremely slow process). If it is Friday that is unacceptable. Set a deadline to claim them, then start working down the list. This may upset someone, but they have communicated the process to ticket holders.

Has all personal responsibility been lost?

Do wished it was on a set timetable, have to order regular seats for 8 if I can't get the club seats.

Exasperating. I just ordered and paid for two but it only made 1 ticket available to print. Called them and their excuse was this is a big event and they are swamped. Ticket office just returned my call and said they will be at Will Call. Now I'm a happy camper. As i said it is just exasperating that these things happen every major event. Despite that, we will be there with bells on.

Swamped? Not according to the available seats on the website. I hate this happened, but I hope they are indeed swamped.

Everybody needs to show up for this one. Pack The Rock!

I thought it was very clear....claim your season ticket seat assignment by Black Friday to secure your seat and if you need to make any additions or changes, call them on Monday. If you don’t do that, your seats will be available to anyone. My guess is they don’t want to upset any potential “big donor” with preferred club seats.

Agreed. If you aren't going to enforce the deadline then don't set one. I understand they tried to create a sense of urgency but it won't work when it isn't enforced.

I get the feeling that the Athletic Department support staff is not a huge department and that they are overwhelmed...I say this based on this ticket buying experience and that I won some App MBB jerseys via www.appstatesports.com/auction/ back in early November and they have yet to mail them to me.

That said...if you want a MBB jersey please DM me. I'm selling 2

They have started calling people on the club seat list. Glad to see they worked through this and apologies for overreacting to the Friday comment above.
