Been many years since I've gone to a game in person. I'm planning to go to the Stanford game, but the Stanford site says tickets don't even go on sale til the summer, while the broker sites say they're almost sold out. Crap seats are showing on seat geek, etc for like $300. Any insight appreciated.

Single game seats go on sale in July, but I'm not sure about away games.
 
google AI on Stanford attendance

Stanford football’s average home attendance in 2025 was 28,171. The team plays at Stanford Stadium, which has a seating capacity of 50,424. Recent attendance has consistently been around 50–60% of capacity, with 2024 averages recorded at 26,035, down from roughly 33,000 in 2023. Key Attendance Trends: 2025 Average: 28,171 2024 Average: 26,035 (51% capacity) 2023 Average: 33,219

Infer from that what you will.

Also can ask someone here to buy when away game tickets go on sale (usually is a thread May/June’ish)

Insight:

1. Relax.
2. Broker sites SIX MONTHS in advance are worthless.
3. Relax.
4. First, Miami will offer away game tickets to Miami STHs and HC members.
5. Second, Stanford will sell single game tickets.
6. Once all of THAT happens, there will be a full inventory of tickets that are available and/or offered for sale on secondary websites.

It will all work out. I cannot possibly envision a world in which Miami at Stanford is the toughest ticket to get in college football.

Thanks. That's what I figured. Just confused that the broker sites were even selling now.

Going to the Stanford game as well. Stanford hasn’t starting distributing tickets yet so you don’t have to worry. Those tickets you see on Seatgeek, stub hub, Ticketmaster, etc are all being listed by season ticket holders. Even if you buy them now the seller won’t be able to transfer you the ticket yet.

Also the game is Friday September 4, Labor Day is the following Monday. Most students and Bay Area residents are going to be out of town for the long weekend not going to Palo Alto. If the game gets 40k I would be shocked.
