With a brisk day of sales today, coupled with a nice walk up crowd, we could be looking at an official sellout and an in-house crowd in the upper 40’s range
Is there such a thing as a "walk-up" crowd anymore?
E-Tickets makes that a difficult proposition. Of course someone can buy tickets either from RU, or from Stubhub or Seatgeek using their phone at any time, but bandwidth at the stadium is not so great.

It wasn't looking good until Nova to Carroo on 4th down
One of the loudest moments I've ever heard at the stadium (2004 vs. MSU opening play of 50 yard run also comes to mind)
I think that is my favorite play of the last 10+ years. I still think about what a clutch play that was at the time.

Yes there is. Every time when I go in through the north gate, there is a long line of people buying at the box office window. That has been the case for both games so far this year -- less so for the Temple game, but still a fairly large crowd waiting there.

Buying or “will call”

They'll be there but not like in the past. Fans are VERY down on this staff and team (apparently).
Really? It's only his second year, they are 1-1 and played Purdue tough. I know fans aren't patient these days, but I would think he still has a grace period.

Their forums are even more depressed and hopeless than ours... and that's saying something

I could be wrong, but I assumed that was people who requested paper printed tickets, in line to get them.

Nothing. This poster is seriously deranged. NUTS isn't the only one he's stalked over the years.
That sounds like the deranged stalker is :
Nuts 😁 😃😀

The Bowl Game when Flood refused to pull an ineffectual “bad” Nova.
Flood so did not want a QB controversy and ended up biting off the nose to spite the face.
Still makes me mad. We sat through the pouring rain and his ego was just being ridiculously stubborn.
Still hurts. So winnable.

That was a miserable game to watch from the comfort of a barstool. Can’t even imagine being there…

Upper levels selling quick today. Looks like we may have an actual capacity crowd tomorrow!
I hope that they are selling but more likely that is the ticket dump to the resellers. Rosh Hashanah will be a big hit to our fanbase. One of our buddies will be MIA. I expect a big VT turnout.

I usually don’t arrive too early but my Wife and I want to see what foods are available at the boardwalk.

I’m excited for the overall atmosphere and our Scarlet Knights.

The boardwalk has been such a great addition. Most on this board has been requesting food trucks for years. Gives visitors a reason to come to a game and get a New Jersey experience.
