godawggo Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 Was told that Nederland was given 5,000 tickets to sell and they are going like hotcakes! Seriously should have selected a venue with more seating!

godawggo Posted December 4, 2012 Author Report Posted December 4, 2012 It is upsetting to think that some people may not get to see the game. We may have a big ole party out in the parkinglot. Standing room only and Barking outside the fence.

godawggo Posted December 4, 2012 Author Report Posted December 4, 2012 Yes and that is frustrating. I wonder if they ever found out the total number in attendance for the Nederland/Pearland Dawson game?
Coach85 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 I heard the coach from Georgetown tried for the smaller venue to limit the crowd that would follow. But, 11,000 or 18,0000 Nederland is still going too have a bigger following and take this one from Georgetown. Good Luck Guys.
Titletown2 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 I think the capacity is 11,000. However, before the stadium in Allen was built, the Berry Center was the premier stadium to play in in TX. It is very, very nice.
bigned85 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 Stood in line for an hour and a half this morning , but I got mine.
Michele Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 Folks, if you don't get a ticket to get inside, please don't let that discourage you from going to the game. Let's pack that place inside and out and show Georgetown that they can't keep us away not no way not no how! Even from outside the gate this game is going to be exciting. Put it on the radio in the parking lot and cheer all the same...I'm sure they will have a video screen to see from outside of the gate too. Bring the noise Nederland Fans.....Loud and Proud this Saturday afternoon. Let Georgetown feel our presence, our coummunity family and the intimidation of stregnth through size of following.Let our team have the comfort of our support and cheers knowing we stand with them all the way!!!!! Pride....Honor.....Stregnth....Tradition.....Community.....FamilyWE ARE THE NEDERLAND BULLDOGS
midcounty73 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 According to the stadium map we got with our tickets, there is NO tailgating....that stinks!
Indianforever Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 This Indian has his ticket and I cant wait to go cheer on the Bulldogs
GoDogs27 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 I don't know how GT's following is, but I doubt they pack half of their side. I say if you don't get a ticket this week, come anyway like others have said and lets pack both sides if they are still selling tickets for GT side...
Indianforever Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 i bet GT doesnt have neighboring schools following them like SETX does when we make runs at State!!!
freelancer1-1 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 My understanding is that Rice and Reliant are booked for this weekend which are the only two large venues GT's coach was willing to use. He wants to play on turf from what I hear. Big or small, I am confident that Nederland fans (and surrounding supporters!) will make it a hostile environment! GO DOGS!!!!!
meat Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 I saw the first quarter of Summer Creek and Georgetown in College Station a couple of weeks ago. College Station High's home side stands are probably a tad smaller than Nederland's, and the Georgetown fans were having trouble filling that side.I'm betting you'll be able to drive over and purchase a ticket at the gate on GT's side. I'll be putting my eggs in that basket at least. It's tough to get your hands on tickets being an out-of-towner.
Michele Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 Nederland fans will grab every remaining seat there is I'm sure....ha ha ha, the rest will support from outside the gate. I promise you, Georgetown will have never seen a supporting fan base like ours before.

They have seen large followings before. Nothing new to them.
NHSBulldogFan Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 Bought my ticket an hour and 1/2 ago quite a number of tickets have been sold but not a sellout just yet.
andrew24b Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 I got my ticket early this morning. There were a lot of people over there. I wouldn't be surprised if the tickets are sold out by tomorrow afternoon.

I think what they mean is that no tail gating can be done beofre the game starts

For folks to go and take up parking spaces with no way in is not right to the people who have tickets and should get the parking.
Michele Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 Just checked with the High School, they do have some tickets left. Will sell until 4:00 today and will start again tomorrow at 8am. So if you don't have your tickets yet you are in luck, but they won't last very much longer.
