The unofficial online home for fans of the Old Dominion University Monarchs. Part of Collegiate Sports Nation (CSN).

In case anyone else was wondering, we should be getting an email in the next couple of days, and tickets should go in the mail this weekend. So expect to get them next week. Go Monarchs!

Wow ! VT is coming to town and we still can't sell them out. What is wrong with the local ODU fan base including recent alumni ? I just don't understand how we can be in this situation. It is not marketing.

Speculation, but I would wager that every single one of those is a season ticket. $200 for one game can be difficult, especially for recent alumni. If single game tickets ever get put on the market, I would imagine they would be gone pretty quickly.

They are still packaging it as season tickets. No single game tickets are available yet.

If we put VT up for single game purchases, that game would be sold out in minutes.

Concur. Ease up there naysayers...football does not have a problem selling tickets to big games.

Its also 6 weeks away and single game tickets have not gone on sale. People are charging a lot for their tickets on stubhub

Getting tickets to games with any Virginia or North Carolina team has always been tough.

Does any one know if the style guide is out yet? or will it be shipping out with the season tix?

I just graduated, been holding off on season tickets until I knew I was sticking around locally. I'll be buying tickets shortly. Most of my friends that walked with me don't care about football.

What can you do to change that? Bring them to some games or encourage them to attend.

So stoked for fan's choice. I get to wear whatever I want!!!

This. I have yet to meet someone who doesn't enjoy tailgating in the fall.

Turn out the lights celebration could be really cool. Turning off the lights in the old stadium for the last time.

I got goosebumps already. That would be amazing

Posting for those folks getting down on ODU for not already being sold out for season tickets. We know from the following article that we had already eclipsed 11k in July. And if we have less than 1400 left, we should be around 12k season tickets sold at this point since the total season tickets is around 13.5k.

I still think Whiteout for the Tek game is a mistake. It shows off the butt ugly colors from tek to easily. Light Blue.
