I'm thinking about going to this game after work. I literally could walk to the campus from there. What are the odds I can just buy tickets on site?

I'd say 100%. I'm not sure how a Friday night game will do here, it may be a sell-out, but even if it is there'll be tickets around for face value.

I would not count on that at all. This game will without a doubt be a standing room only + game.

Agreed. I'm sure there will be some scalpers, but I bet they'll be pricey.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. After looking at the whole schedule, most likely you guys will be limping into this game with one or 2 wins at the absolute best. Friday night games typically don't draw quite all that well.

Clearly not speaking from experience, but I feel like a friday game in a city would draw pretty well. I understand them not drawing well in areas where most people are commuting in for the game though.

It will be a night game, most likely nationally televised. Both firsts for us, I believe (unless you count ASN games as national). I think it'll go down as a sellout, but I don't think you'll have any problem getting tickets for face value.

A poster who has trashed our program at every opportunity, now advice on getting tickets. Not sure what to think.

Our schedule prior to Temple

Georgia State
Presbyterian
MT
FAU

We could be anywhere from 1-3 to 3-1 (probably 2-2) at that point blunderbuss, I'm not sure if you're trolling but I don't think the morale of the fan-base will be broken by this point :).

I hope you guys are right, and I expect a great and lively crowd, but the Friday night that is an attraction to many, will stop some from being able to attend. I know for sure one person that will be there blunderbuss, feel free to come by the Black Lot if you want to grab a couple of Yuengling Lights before the game.

Not trolling here. I just don't think there's any way you win more than 2 prior.

I eas curious on the demand
What will capacity be?

FWIW, our first Friday night game ever had an electric atmosphere. The atmosphere at ODU is typically good but this was different. Despite the loss, it felt bigger and more important than it was. Y'all have been waiting and fighting for these types of games as long as we have. Given that, I'm sure the results will be similar.

Yes posting UNCC Football vs Temple as the thread title is not an attempt to troll at all.
