There are no general admission tickets being sold for any game this year. All tickets are reserved for a specific seat. If you haven't already, I'd highly suggest you do, as the event is extremely close to selling out.

Okay, so I wasn't expecting this... if I call tomorrow morning, do tickets go to will call? Or how late is the ticket office open at Memorial Hall if I swing through town on my way to the folks' place?

On the bright side, I meant to venture to the east side to get a picture looking west, this will be a great opportunity with a full stadium, too!

Flipper was at the ticket office yesterday. They were selling bench seats in Section 10 (visitors) and a few chairs are available.

Also, the west side has completely sold out.

I'm speculating, but it may be that the east ends (8 and 22) still have tickets available, too.

I would think you could have tickets waiting for you at will call if you call this morning. Those on flex plan may want to call ahead, too, and see if you can have tickets waiting to be claimed for your coupon. (I hope that's possible).

If you call today, you can tell them to either have them at AA today, or leave them at will call tomorrow. I would imagine they will take all held tickets to the stadium tomorrow.

Will call is on the East Side of the stadium.

I don't know about sold out, but it appears that there will be a great crowd tomorrow. As for the West side seats, any tickets that are being held for season tickets and the like will be release for walk up sales tomorrow (I think).

We could be close to 20k tomorrow. I hope so, I will have alot of family there tomorrow. See you all at the tailgating. Hope to try and kick a field goal if that is going on. Last time I tried that was at the college football hall of fame about 10 years ago and I made most of those. (only 20 yarders).

Hope Corey can get back on track, still struggling with the shoulder.

20,000 would be a great way to start the 2005 homw season off! i would at least like to see 17k there, i feel that is pretty attainable...
4th & 13 on PU 32yd line.. 56,000 fans up on their feet screaming, i held my breath the entire play trying to make as little noise as possible.. wouldnt u know Sharon would make the biggest touchdown catch in the history of BG Football, FALCON UP!

I still say we get just over 23,000. And that would be great.

GO FALCONS!!! Happy Homecoming!

Yes, he will play. If you watched the Boise game, the ball he caught in the 4th quarter was bad. The DB popped him a good one and he fell badly on the shoulder. Without sufficient time to heal, he will most likely be hindered by it the rest of the season. I wanted him to take this game off with no contact for 10 or 11 days and then start preparing for Ohio and the MAC schedule. But Dad doesn't carry the same weight as when Corey was in High School.

I just hope he doesn't get another big hit on the shoulder this week. He said it was feeling pretty good. So we will see. We saw at Wisconsin what he can do when he is healthy. And I think that opens the offense more when we have a third option to go to when the big two get doubled.

See you Saturday Freak...

Just called in for my tickets, and well...there is not much left at all...home side full,
East side is full from 30-30 all the way up and down, and chair backs are gone.

Best guess is there from my perspective is the areas on the east out to the 30's leaves about 2-3k tickets....
So that means we will see about 24000 people for homecoming...or more.

As one who was pessimistic on attendance, that would be just great. A big crowd would be a pleasant surprise.

Where are your seats?

I'm not a stalker, just curious what they had left to sell you.

I'm not being negative, this is just an 'observation'...Based on the new seating chart, filling the home side doesn't seem to take much since most of the home side is now student seating.
