Yea, looking at SeatGeek and keeping a pulse on this almost every year since ND in 2017, I don't expect this crowd to be any better than Texas AM a few years ago. Its going to be a bit disappointing.

You are violently high and I would love to talk to your weed guy.

For research purposes, of course.

The attendance for that game was about 48,000. We were coming off a 5-7 season, and playing who gives a **** A&M, ranked #23, at 3:30.

This is a night game, on a Sunday, on a holiday weekend, against Notre Dame, and we're ranked in the top 10. And they're ranked in the Top 5.

Wild that they’d really try to milk extra cash on a couple hundred seats. You can sell half of them for $300 or sell all of them for $150.

There are season tickets cheaper than $300.

You wanna not sell future tickets tell people who already paid $300 for those tickets weeks in advance some of them with a donation that the guy next to them bought them from the same source for half price

You literally can’t do that without ******* your entire ticket Base over

Hey, listen I’m with you on all of these things, but this game is definitely softer ticket wise than expected

I have two tickets that I’m not using in the exact same section as Notre Dame last time and by this time in advance of that game and admittedly, the price is higher for face value they had already sold two weeks ago for four times face value right now those same tickets Which I usually sell to help pay for my travel costs are still available on StubHub and I don’t even have them priced at two times face value.

I’m pretty surprised to be honest with you. Florida is going to be in more demand with obviously more visiting team people likely local.

A couple of things can be true at the same time the demand that you would expect isn’t there yet and people saying they should sell tickets for half price and ***** over people who spent more money and that is a terrible business model can both live in the same space

I bought tickets on the secondary market the week of the game in 2017 and there wasn't much available.

I didn't realize the Texas AM attendance was that bad, but the secondary market availability is looking very similar. I also remember prices for the AM game being ridiculous and keeping people away.

If this game isn't an official sellout, I blame the university ticket office and no one else. Ridiculous for them to sell tickets in the nose bleed sections for Sunday's game at $250 a pop, when the same seats for next week are going for $25.

I know a bunch of people at work that are wanting to go, but not at 300 for nose bleeds. At least if it rains they’ll be covered.
But 300$?!!
People are already gonna spend money that weekend and asking them to fork out another 300 per ticket is just ridiculous.
 
I don't have much to compare this to, but there seems to be quite a few tickets available on Seatgeek. I'm sure Stubhub has more, too

In particular, the ND sideline has rows of tickets available for sale. It would look really bad on TV if these tickets don't sell as the cameras face the visitor sideline and entire empty rows would be obvious:

This game isn’t even top 3 in the country cost wise. FSU/Alabama tickets are much higher. I’m not buying the “price” excuse when it’s a top ten matchup vs ND.
 
I’m still floored this game is going to have thousands of empty seats. I understand that upper corner on the endzone sides - it’s never going to fill there likely but the other areas make ZERO sense to me.

No one wants to hear it but the 20 years of mediocrity has shrunk the fanbase dramatically in the tri county area. Kids that were forced to be fans growing up choose to go elsewhere or just can’t afford to go to college at miami. And because miami sucked their entire life there is no loyalty when they go to college. It’s a dying fanbase that desperately needs some life shocked into it
 
In addition to single-game ND tickets, the school is still offering season tickets for sale. If you look at the season ticket seat map, it's obvious that they haven't even released all of the potential tickets -- there's no way people bought up the last rows in the corners and left several full rows in the middle. They clearly get released in batches as more are bought to create the illusion of scarcity.

There are going to be noticeable patches of empty seats in the upper deck on Sunday, and it's all because the school is playing chicken with the fans on these prices. What they clearly don't realize is that every empty seats is a missed opportunity to get someone hooked on Canes football and become a long-term fan.

Is this from the school or 3rd party?

That’s secondary market. We had people here porsting secondary of our game as well, so a little comparison. I’m in no way pretending or thinking we have anywhere near support as OSU.

I agree with you that it’s pretty sad we can’t do better but mostly gave up caring too much a long time ago. If fact it allows me to have good seats cheap.
 
The UM athletics website shows about 600-700 seats left. Is this not an accurate representation?
