According to the story, 14K tickets have been sold for the game this Saturday and they are hoping to squeeze 20K into the stadium.

Will be VERY disappointing if they do not sell out the first game in 21 years!!!!!

Too many people around town is talking LAMAR. I think the game is already sold out. I think
this excitement will grow basketball attendance by extra 2k-3k.

I was thinking about that too.  I think at the very least we'll see more students at the games.

The students have not picked up their tickets yet from what I heard over the weekend.  I feel confident that the game will be a sellout and will have overflow.  Tell everyone you know to go get tickets!

Yes students can start picking up tickets today.

Anyone know how much a ticket is for a person who retired from Lamar?
My stepfather and mother want to attend the game this Saturday.

So I need to know how much his ticket is and hers.

Thanks for the information. I guess it I don't see an answer I'll call the ticket office in a couple of days.

I do not think I would wait a couple of days - could be sold out by then

It's already sold out

[bigred360]

Yep, and it's only Tuesday. Wish there was some way for a standing room only crowd. Heck, we could have two records in consecutive weeks. Andre Bevil and his passing record and one for attendance.

The guy at the ticket booth said standing room only will probably be the case
