My money is on the Aggies for this one.

The State Aggies will win for sure!

Iron clad lock!

Reported on local news today NMSU sold in one day half our allotment for tickets for our bowl game. Now ticket office saying our allotment has sold out already, in two days! What was Clarity saying about no one cares about Aggie football? LOL??

Correction. The $50 tickets are sold out. Tickets remain at $65 and $25. Also, we have been assured we can get more tickets if we need them.

They called me back yesterday after I got my $50 dollar tickets, upgrades to the $65 for better seats.

If I'm going to a Bowl game the tickets are the least of my costs. I don't much care if it's $65 or $50. The hotel and food and travel are all much more.

Buy the more expensive tickets, $15 is a small thing. Don't buy the $15 silly souvenir plastic whatever which looks cute when all boisterous and silly, that you are going to throw in the dumpster in a month -- as when you get home you'll realize it's just a stupid piece of plastic junk.

Price isn't the issue. SBC told NMSU that all tickets are $50, when there are $65 and $25 dollar seats too that need to be sold. Benson trying to **** NMSU out the door.

Not to students, which coincidentally get tickets at $15. Understand and agree with what youre saying though.

Just got an email from the Alumni Association. It’s states we have sold over 4,000 tickets.

I don't think we will sell 10000 tickets as Frank stated on the Utah State board (his second home). I'm looking at 6500-7000 which is still above the amount from the original 5000 allotment. I'm expecting 40000+ at this game. Utah State fans travel really really good. Hate to tell you Havocs but the Herd (I hate them) blows you guys out of the water. I've been to both arenas and Utah State's student body is bigger, louder, more coordinated and a lot meaner (lot's of Jack Mormons in that group drinking coffee and having premarital sex). I've been told the city of Tucson also really supports this local bowl so probably surpass the 38000 when Air Force played whatever Scum Belt team they played that year. Wish I knew how to post post game bowl pictures CP. Can I email them to you and you can post them? Dummy with technology.

Arizona Bowl is expecting 10,000 Aggie fans. That is not my prediction.

Would not be surprised to see more than 10,000 NMSU fans. NMSU is near 5,000 tickets sold, probably will get to near 7,000 before they are through. Since many fans get tickets through other sources, the bowl website, travel agencies, etc. with packages, I look for a lot of crimson in the stands.

As of Thursday 4,892 tickets had been sold. Fridays numbers undoubtedly will be well upwards of 5,000.

38,000 is a lot for a smaller bowl. Definitely blows the NM bowl out of the water attendance wise.

Over 5200 tickets soldin less than a week! Initial ticket allotment sold out. AZ bowl gave NMSU 2000 more tickets to sell. Frank mat be right. I know lots of people who say they are going but haven't bought their tickets yet.

Pistol Pete Ale will be flowing! Haha

Talked to someone in the know and they are expecting 40000+ for this game. Gonna be like a home game for NMSU. Expectations are 20000 Aggie fans. Locally projecting 7500 tickets bought locally and another 3500-4000 bought directly from Bowl site. Come on Havocs. We need our WAC brethren to join us!

Technically, they'll all be Aggie fans, right?

NMSU has sold 5,318 tickets through Friday. I think a good goal by the end of next week will be 7,000.

Of course! Since you guys don't have football and our star QB is from Peoria, AZ along with a bunch of other players from Phoenix and Arizona might as well! If you buy directly from bowl is all for charity and tickets are less than buying through NMSU.
