Bowl Game Ticket Allotments - TexanMark - 12-18-2018 03:41 PM
So which schools have sold their Allotments?
Cuse sold out their 8000 Tix allotment to the Camping World Bowl. That makes the third straight time they sold out.

This is the 3rd straight Bowl game that Cuse sold out our allotment? Is that what you meant? That would be awesome! I was at Pinstripe but didnt make it to Texas

Yeah, nobody sells out a second-tier bowl against Minnesota! (Oh, hi there, Yellow Jackets!)

Do you know what your allotment is for the Military Bowl? Are you close to selling out? It seems like an easy drive for most of your fans. Hopefully, you are getting a few of your injured players back.

I'll have you know GT sold out of their allotment to tickets in Row A after only a week or two.

A hideous bowl...not sure why we want part of it. At least in NYC you have things to do around freezing in Yankee Stadium.

two words: indoor stadium.
two more words: Big Ten
still, I'm hoping they eventually figure out that Indianapolis is also indoors...

Quote:Military Bowl: VT set record, sold out its ticket allotment in record time.
Per Andy Bitter: Why'd the Military Bowl pick Virginia Tech for this game? Yesterday (Sunday) was the largest single-day ticket sales in the game's history. #Hokies no doubt a big reason for that.
At this moment there are 8 seats available on the VT side. Eight.

Nice job VT....do you know what the allotment is? I'm trying to get these figured out.

Some Georgia Tech Faithful have raised $5,800 to send 58 local kiddos to the Quick Crapper Bowl (https://www.gofundme.com/send-kids-to-the-quick-lane-bowl?member=1259494).... So NO! Georgia Tech will not sell out of their Allotments...However It will be interesting to see how many Minnesota brings since Coach Fleck is so happy to be at the Who gives a F*** Quick Crapper Bowl and how many travel to see CPJ last Game...
Previous Quick Crapper Bowl Attendance Numbers for the 64,500-seat stadium:
2014 Rutgers University beat University of North Carolina 40-21 the day-after-Christmas before an announced crowd of 23,876 fans.
2015 Minnesota beat Central Michigan 21-14 three days after Christmas in front of 34,217 fans.
2016 Boston College's 36-30 victory over Maryland drew the smaller crowd of 19,117 fans.
2017 Duke University beat Northern Illinois 26-14 in front of an announced crowd of 20,211 fans.
So if 25K to 30K show up it seems like the Quick Crapper & Ford Family will be "pure michigan" happy since most of the game's revenue is generated from corporate sponsorships.

I haven't been able to find the exact number. The stadium seats 34,000 and is divided roughly in half, so the allocation was probably not more than 17,000 (and probably a lot less). That said, lots of alumni and t-shirt fans in the area, so figure on about 27,000 Hokie fans for the game.
RE: Bowl Game Ticket Allotments - TexanMark - 12-19-2018 07:42 AM
Annapolis for most of your fan base is probably a closer drive than heading to Blacksburg.
I doubt the allotment is more than 6-8k.
