Do you mean if Upstate wins? Towson is in MD isn't it?

Yes they are, but right after the game they could bus straight here instead if going back.

ETSU didn't get close to breaking even. As I said in an earlier post, the season ticket holders are not buying tickets for the tournament.

I don't see any high profile team that we could play that would sell more tickets than the Chatt game.

Judging by the eyeball test, the season ticket holders don't come to most of our games evidenced by all the empty seats near the floor every game.

The tickets were sold to businesses and individuals, they just didn't attend. The same group didn't buy the tournament games.

Yep, the empties are all corporate tickets that make the dome look empty on webstreams and television. It's amazing what happens when the regular folks get those seats and they USE THEM!
I hope the next game is on Saturday just to give time to get tickets sold again.

The pretty leather chairs? Minimum $1500 BASA donation for the privilege of purchasing 2 season tickets for them. I think each season ticket is $180. Hubby wants them, so I looked it up recently.

If you've ever been to a game at UT, they make an announcement at the first media timeout inviting people in the upper seats to move down to the lower empties. They should do that here. If someone can't make the game by the first media timeout, they should be required to forfeit their reserved seat and settle for "best available."

Note to UT fans... don't use restroom or concessions at first media timeout!

They don't do it during conference play. Its usually mid December games after the students are gone and their seats are empty.
