Nebraska sell-out streak in jeopardy

[QChawks]

OMAHA, Neb. (WOWT) - The Husker football season is about three weeks away. One of the major topics of discussion among fans is the team’s home game sellout streak, the longest in college football history.

But die-hard fans know tickets sold can differ from the number of fans actually in seats at home games.

That visual gap, combined with a less-than-dominant team over the last few seasons, has raised concern that the historic streak could be in jeopardy.

That excitement in the store might not be carrying over to ticket sales. So far this year, home game ticket sales are down. Big home games against defending national champion Indiana and Big Ten powerhouse Ohio State are about 10,000 tickets short of a sellout.

That has left some fans wondering if the record sellout streak is in jeopardy.

Don't worry, a local company will buy up the seats to keep that pretend streak alive..it happens pretty frequently.

Hopefully at some point they'll get tired of setting their money on fire just to keep that farce alive......

What else do they have to talk about? Their dumpster fire football team?

The difference is that Kylie Jenner's boobs look fabulous.

I heard recruiting is going well.

Then...in two years, all the 4* and 5* guys transfer.

They sell them to some place like seat geek for Pennies on the dollar. They’re pulling a decent profit re selling them, won’t stop anytime soon

 

[kwik44]

For their own good; to clean the slate of their superiority complex, they’d be best to let this thing expire. They took the first step in removing the dumb winning tradition patches on their shoulder pad.

It's certainly not the kind of streak you hope for as a fan, But these days it's all they got.

Frank Solich is still laughing.

I wonder how many past HCs they're still paying?

 

[kmurpny]

Wow, 10,000 short for both OSU and Indiana! I guess fans have no hope of an upset as those two games should be sellouts.

I wonder if there has been some sort of Ponzi style ticket scheme going on since the 90's? Just idiots exchanging tickets amongst themselves...all in the name of keeping this farce alive and well. LMAO

This is the biggest scam perpetrated on the American public since One-Hour Martinizing

They are in too deep, they can't admit today that they have been lying for twenty years.

Isn’t capacity going down in ‘27 when they make stadium renovations? IF I recall , 20K less seats for new capacity?

I think up to 10k less they were talking at the game in Lincoln last year.

What, no red balloon?

Talk about a solid blue blood program .

When you have to resort to a promotion similar to what the Kernels use to get people out to Tuesday night games, I think you’ve officially fallen down to second tier, if not third…

 

[BreezyB]

It's another sell out. . .

Is that a KFC ad?

They serve Runza that will make you vomit or have the runs. That’s why they call it Runza…gotta run to the bathroom after eating that crap.

Has there ever been a food brand with a worse name? I submit that there has not.

Their south end zone is like traveling back in time to the 1970s.

It was awesome watching their fans clear out of the stadium in the 3rd quarter last year.
