Any idea when you guys might actually break ground on this?

Problem so far is that schools like NSU or NC State ask for a couple thousand tickets and then return most of them. I'm sure VT will take their full allotment, but will UNC? Wake? At 5,000 I kind of doubt it. ECU might. I think 28,000 is the right number, expandable to 35 or 40k. And it seems more and more possible that they may rebuild on the existing site rather than the water.

NC State will not return any of the 2,600 tickets they received this year

I wouldn't be surprised to see some blue in the visitors section for that game. ODU sold out its single game tickets before NCST and secondary markets have tickets for $70+.

1. We gave them 2000 tickets, with 500 being complimentary.
2. They sold 1200, kept the 500 freebies and returned 300 tickets that we then sold.

And NCState had the nerve to say the reason we didn't get a second home game was because we couldn't give them more tickets.

Your student allotment, at 2000 seats, is an interesting contrast to the way Charlotte tried to do it. We started with 7500 and they disappointed us almost every game. This year we are reserving 4500 for them and expecting better results, but we will still be more than double ODU. Maybe we are still too high? I guess it is up to our students to decide that.

Man, I figured UNCC students would be all over that. Are tickets easy to come by for the public?

Yes, Stubhub is full of tickets. I sold an NC St. ticket i'm not going to use for about 100% profit (had 4 tickets and using 3). Hopefully an NC St. fan gets to sit next to me.

All 4500 student tickets for Presby game were taken within 2 days of the student claim period, from what I heard anyway.
