    Thumbs up 32,954

    Early update today, but a pretty big one. Could jump over 33K by the end of the week.

    I'm impressed by Cyclone fans, I thought we'd top out at 33k this year.

    TheHelgo strikes again! (What is a helgo?)

    Wow, 76 tickets in one day? Awesome!
    True and Valiant

    I also remember a game with Kansas when Cy (wore a huge suit then) went out to center field, squatted, and "pooped" a couple of chickens that had been dyed blue then chased them around.

    Haha! Actually 'helgo' is a shortened version of my last name (Helgeson). People for some reason started calling me The Helgo (or just Helgo) and it stuck.

    For some reason I don't think we can sell 40,000 season tickets. I think we have to leave some extra tickets that season ticket holders buy. I may be wrong though.

    Re: 32,954

    The only way we hit 40,000 is if Pollard starts selling them at half price in July.

    37,000 sounds like a GREAT number to me

    This has been discussed before -> Jamie has mentioned that the max season tickets we can sell is 38,000 due to Visitor Allotments, etc.

    Re: 32,954

    Selling 30 tickets per day until kickoff would give us over 36,000 season tickets. We could get to 37,000 when the students buy their allotment.

    A 20%+ increase after a 4-8 season is f'ing amazing!

    But that doesn't include hillside seats if I'm not mistaken.

    This is great if true - has someone verified that this is the case?

    Sure can, I heard it straight from JP when he was talking about the season ticket situation. 38k permanent seats plus however many hillside season tickets we can sell. 38k plus the visitors tics and tent parties would technically constitute a sellout, but it is by no means the maximum.

    I think what most of us want to know is this: Is the updated number of tickets sold including hillside tickets?

    If so, then wouldn't that mean we could sell 38k (permanent seats) + approx 10k (hillside) for a total of 48k? If the updated sales number only includes permanent seats then we can't go any higher than 38k for those.

    Does anyone know???

    Re: 32,954

    I would think that hillsides are included in that number. The real question is if student tickets are included in the current tally?
