Mine showed up a few days ago.
Also, I called UCATS about my grid space since Ashley left. They confirmed my purchase and said that grid info and parking coupons would be going out next week.

Better chance that happens at an FCC game than UCFB

It's no coincidence that FCC doesn't sell standing room only seats. UC won't allow FCC to appear in the list of games with the highest attendance at Nippert.

As awesome as FCC's attendance has been they haven't approached UC football levels other than the Crystal Palace game. No reason to sell standing room tickets as there are plenty of seats.

The Crystal Palace game is precisely what I'm talking about. There's no reason they needed to cap attendance at 35,000 or whatever it was that game.

UC had somewhere around 60,000 for the Oklahoma game at PBS - play the Sooners, or some other team of that level @ Nippert and you could sell 60,000 there. To pick 1 game for the soccer team, where the opponent is a "major" European opponent and say they could have sold more than 35,000 tickets is somewhat disingenuous to say the least.

Actually, FCC Cincinnati said that could have sold more seats for the Crystal Palace game, which sold out days in advance of the game. Count me as one who planned on being a walkup sale. Other than the club seats, Nippert was full for that game.

How is it disingenuous to say FCC could have sold out Nippert for the Crystal Palace game? I think they could have added another 5k people. Is there something offensive about that statement? I'm not a soccer fan and haven't been to an FCC game. But I just think it's pretty obvious that the FCC capped sales at 35k because UC probably wants to retain all attendance records for its teams. And, as a UC fan, I appreciate that agreement if it exists.

Club seats cost over $400 per seat for Real FOOTBALL. If soccer dudes had that kind of money they could move out of momma's basement and get a car instead of riding bikes and streetcars.

Actually, they do not sell pavilion seats either.

People didn't come to watch FCC play. They came to watch Crystal Palaces JV play FCC. This is Cincinnati where fans come to watch the opposing team.

Apparently, you didn't attend any UC fball games in the last decade. You probably believe that urban legend that high school out draws UC fball. Are you Lance?
