As I understand it yes that number is for student sports passes. They may continue to sell them past the 11.5k number for games at Folsom though.

Guess the Attendance: Rocky Mountain Showdown
- Thread starter StormTrooper
- Start date
Two thoughts:
- The back of the envelope calculations for today's sales from my post #104 were pretty accurate- thought we'd get to 37,270 with 24 hours to go, and the total was 37,407 according to Howell. If the other calculation holds (total attendance 2.06X CU's sold base with 24 hours to go) we're going to get to a sellout.
- CU opened up more student athletics passes- look at Howell's tweets from the last two days. He said yesterday that they had "1K left for students" when they'd sold 9,829 passes; they sold almost exactly 1,000 in 22 hours and he tweeted that "664 remain". How does that happen? Can they convert public tix to student tix?
No. They just squeeze more into the student section. There's usually room to spare in there. Maybe not anymore.
Great to see.
They sold out, but there are $55 for nose bleed?
Wow:
This is all that's left on the Broncos link:
Section 516:
Section 523:
Looks like maybe 300-400 tickets? To answer the above question, all those blue dots are $55/ticket.
Hoping I can sneak into the student section for this game. That should be interesting.
Wow. Good job Buffs! What the hell broncos?
hah, that's the group you are in now? FYI, you can do that till you are about 35 in Folsom. Maybe not this year though, the kids look hyped.

Yeah, what Denver said haha. I knew I should have bought the 100's on Tuesday when I thought I might be off for $65 but I didn't want to waste them. Oh well, I'm going to Texas state so I'll just watch from a bar.
I know it! At 23 I think I can do it. I bought season tickets, but I told my friends for this game just to get the cheapest ticket on stubhub and we can go to the student section because they haven't checked ever before if you go up when you get in instead of going down. Hopefully Argus doesn't get a stick up their ass tomorrow. Pumped for a helluva an atmosphere. Gonna be chippy in the tailgating area.hah, that's the group you are in now? FYI, you can do that till you are about 35 in Folsom. Maybe not this year though, the kids look hyped.

Going to be an awesome game.
Also, that's insane. CU went from 3,000 left to sold out in an afternoon into evening.
You were WRONG snow.
Brian Howell does not believe it's really sold out yet. He is pretty sure that all unsold tickets as of 4pm today were turned over to the broncos/mile high
hmm. Still, if it's just those two sections, that's a lot less than 2400. Guess we find out tomorrow.

they aren't on Ticketmaster? I'm not sure I buy that unless they go available tomorrow which wouldn't make sense. CU had tickets available down low and Ticketmaster shows none.
Either way it's gonna be the best attended RMS I have ever been to.

Guess we can confirm not sold out, yet. Go students go!
The world has changed so much. Only a couple of those kids are talking with another. They're mostly texting.
Why is it so hard to pick up passes? ****in Cu.
We haven't had this kind of problem in a long time.
True. I'm very glad we have this problem. Good work creating the foundation for this problem, btw!
This has a lot more to do with last year's team I think. But it's worth noting that last year we sold like 9800 or something with much less preseason hype. The end zone looked full. Not sure where they're gonna put everybody this year.
The kids always find a way. When we play UW in Folsom, they will be standing sideways and the bleachers will be breaking from the weight. Good times, good times.
Yeah, looking at the numbers I saw from last year there's a substantial difference between an apparently full student section (ASU) and a jam packed student section (UCLA).
Beyond hyped for that game. If both teams are standing at 3-0, and we get gameday, look out.
I always talk to people I don't know if the situation is right. If I was in that line I'd strike up conversations with people I don't know. Yeah. I do all the time.
