Im hoping for a sell out for Christ's sake.
CU athletic director Mike Bohn reported 8,437 tickets remained available for the season opener against Colorado State with about an hour left in the business day on Tuesday.
Is the game still being played at Invesco?
No, Regis high school.
It's pathetic there are that many tickets available. ABSOLUTELY pathetic.
Pretty standard for CU, imo. Who knows if student tix are even sold out yet. School hasn't started.
"CU athletic director Mike Bohn reported 8,437 tickets remained available for the season opener against Colorado State with about an hour left in the business day on Tuesday."
That seems like a high number of unsold seats. That would be a crowd of 46,000, which is what the Buffs had for Eastern Washington and Iowa State last season -
- but I guess it's still early. :thumbsup:
pop quiz, when was the last time CU sold out a home game?
Student tix were not sold out...as of yesterday when I bought mine.
pop quiz, when was the last time CU sold out a home game?
Capacity: 53,750
Attendance at the Texas game last season: 53,927
Average home attendance in 2008: 49,476 :huh:
CSU tickets this year are awfully expensive, especially when buying multiples. With an average (non student) ticket price at or exceeding $100, its a hell of an expensive day for a family of four. When the game is at Invesco, I typically remember every seat in the place being the same price (50 or 60 bucks).
I'm not complaining, but offering a possible explanation.
Yeah, I bought 6 additional tickets (not premium seating either) after they went on sale to the season ticket holders and paid $486 or 80-friggen-1-dollars each. Pass the Vasoline please...

It doesn't make sense for people from out of state, like myself, to buy season tickets or even the three-pack. I said average ticket price for this one game that is the subject of this thread. And I bet the average non-student single game price for CSU is over 100.
Right you are. Anyway, I'm lucky enough to not have an issue with prices (at least these prices), I'm just suggesting one possible reason for the crappy sales is a crappy economy and single game ticket prices that are fairly high.
I paid $360 for two season tickets. The seats aren't the greatest, but let's be honest, there aren't really too many bad seats in Folsom. Just being in the stadium is pretty cool.
